Steel stud partition with Powerpanel H₂O.
Partition walls.
Metal stud partition system based on fermacell® Powerpanel H₂O linings, an advanced water resistant cement bonded board. Whereas traditional materials such as plywood and plasterboard are liable to swell, break or disintegrate when wet, PowerPanel H₂O. board stays strong and firm, no matter how damp it gets. PIus it is an A1 non-combustible product exceeding all building regulations for fire resistance, whilst also being impervious to water damage. Boards are made with reinforced glass fibre to offer the high strength and acoustic performance, minimizing both impact and airborne sound. It is quick and easy to fit on to masonry, timber or steel and installation is based on the same simple construction techniques that are used with standard dry lining materials.
