Steel stud partition with Powerpanel H₂O and fermacell® gypsum fibreboard
Partition walls.
Metal stud partition system based on fermacell® Powerpanel H₂O linings. fermacell® PowerPanel H₂O board is an advanced water resistant cement bonded board ideal for walls, floors, and ceilings. It’s specifically designed for use where there are damp conditions, such as leisure and sports centres, swimming pools and catering facilities. 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. PowerPanel H₂O board 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 ultimate in strength and acoustic performance, minimising both impact and airborne sound. PowerPanel H₂O board 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.
