Water Resistant

Rooms that have high humidity, like bathrooms, kitchens and laundry rooms should have water resistant sheetrock This material isn’t waterproof or mold proof, but it can withstand more moisture than normal. Standard sheetrock is also prone to warp in high humidity rooms, but the water-resistant kind will not. It is sometimes referred to as a greenboard or blueboard sheetrock because of its blue or green backing.
