Summary
Moisture-resistant, fire-rated plasterboard.
Moisture-resistant, fire-rated plasterboard.
Application
Suitable for use in areas where increased fire resistance is required, and moisture exposure is possible.
Suitable for use in areas where increased fire resistance is required, and moisture exposure is possible.
Description
GTEC Fire MR Board plasterboard provides superior fire and moisture resistance for stud partitions, wall lining and ceiling systems. Achieve 60 minutes' fire resistance from a 15 mm single layer partition system. It complies with BS 1230 Type 5 and BS EN 520 Types D, F and H2.
Features and benefits:
- 60 minutes' fire resistance from a 15 mm single-layer partition system.
- Achieves Building Regulations Approved Document B (fire) compliance.
- Improved durability in humid environments.
- The board complies with BS 1230 type 5 and BS EN 520:2004+A1:2009 types D, F and H2.
Technical characteristics:
- Fire, acoustic and duty performance dependent on the whole system. See Siniat Drywall Manual for Siniat system performances.
