Silent Spacesaver for Commercial Projects: Silent Spacesaver SSC3/13
Knauf Easybuild has been developed to reduce the number of components and speed up the construction of internal partitions in residential situations.
Knauf Silent Spacesaver is suitable in areas where floor space is at a premium and there is a requirement for a partition to provide a high level of sound reduction with a narrow width. The Knauf Silent Spacesaver system is quick to install, lightweight, and maximizes space within buildings.
Features and benefits:
- Low overall width.
- High acoustic performance.
- High fire resistance.
To be installed in accordance with Knauf recommendations and British standards BS 8212-1995 and BS 8000-8:1994.
For socket penetrations, use Knauf Putty Pads. Where multiple, excessive penetrations occur, consider the use of the Knauf Wall Liner System as sacrificial layers - consult manufacturer for details.
