Usage Benefits
- FIRE RATED
Up to 4 hours according to British Standard - LIGHT WEIGHT
Weight of walls is approximately 3 times lighter compared to brick walls. Density is 750-850 kg/m3. - FAST TRACK CONSTRUCTION
Easily and rapidly constructed, cutting down construction time and cost compared to traditional wall construction. - HIGH QUALITY WALL FINISHING
Wall is straight with smooth surfaces. - SURFACE FINISH VERSATILITY
Readily accepts a wide range of surface finishes, e.g. acrylic and emulsion paint, wall paper, ceramic tiles, marble, etc. - CLEANER AND SAFER CONSTRUCTION
Reduces messiness and thereafter easy to clean up at site. Also minimizes inconvenience to other trades compared to the labour- intensive conventional trade. - IMPACT RESISTANT
Scuff-resistant, offering superior impact and abrasion resistance. - DURABLE
Immune to permanent water damage and impervious to high humidity / moisture. Also does not warp, crack or split easily. - THERMAL INSULATION
R value = 0.169 m² K/W - SOUND INSULATION
Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating on 104mm thick wall is 46 dB.
