product range

Fermacell is available in standard sizes as well as custom formats up to 6000 mm x 2540 mm.

Wallboard thicknesses range from 10 mm to 18 mm. This choice gives you the ability to select the most appropriate product to speed installation and eliminate waste.

One-Man board

One-man boards are available in 1200 x 800, 1200 x 1200 and 1500 x 1000 mm.

Standard size boards

Standard size boards in thicknesses from 10 mm to 18 mm are available. Special sizes to eliminate waste and reduce jointing are available to order.

Tapered edge boards

Tapered edge boards are available with 2 or 4 sided Tapered edges for conventional Dry Lining installation techniques.

H2O Boards

Powerpanel H2O is a cement bonded light-concrete board with a laminated structure, reinforced both sides with an alkali-resistance glass fibre mesh. H2O is a water resistant board for wet areas and semi exposed applications.

HD Boards

Powerpanel HD Board is a cement bonded glass fibre board reinforced with an aggregate of aerated clay and recycled foamed glass granules. HD Boards are especially practical because they are lightweight and easy to use with a high strength. The water repellent properties of the boards prevents moisture ingress whilst allowing vapour to be retained. HD Boards can be used in semi and fully exposed applications, and as a render carrier board.

Modular building

For factory based modular construction and timber frame housing applications, boards up to 6000 x 2540 mm can be supplied reducing the need of jointing.

Vented and Insulated rainscreen

Fermacell Gypsum Fibreboard has been tested independently for use as a backer board in vented and insulated rainscreen applications. Testing has shown it to be weather resistant, and that it does not degrade with permanent exposure.

Discolouration may occur due to moisture absorption in the board surface. A surface treatment or other protection is recommended for prolonged exposure prior to the installation of the cladding system.

Test in accordance with CWCT Standard Test Methods at a UKAS accredited facility.

Flooring Systems

Fermacell Flooring Systems are a dry alternative to conventional wet screed systems and are designed for upgrading both impact and airborne sound insulation in floors, or for increasing thermal performance. They are also particularly suitable for use with warm water underfloor heating systems and can be used for upgrading the fire protection to the upper surface of a floor construction.

Accessories

A full range of accessories is available including Fermacell Screws, Jointstik, Joint Filler and Fine Surface Treatment ensuring perfect results whatever the applications.
