British Gypsum Ltd - British Gypsum puts ‘Off-site’ on show at
Interbuild
After more than ten years away, British Gypsum is
returning to Interbuild in 2007 with a stand dedicated
to the company’s off-site solutions.
A growing element of the new build housing market,
off-site manufacture offers a solution to the quality
issues sometimes associated with site-built methods, but
introduces new challenges for manufacturers whose
panellised systems not only have to compete cost-wise
with ‘traditionally built’ panels, but must be extra
robust to cope with the stresses and strains of factory
to site transportation.
In conjunction with off-site manufacturers, British
Gypsum has therefore developed new Glasroc Rigidur H BIG
BOARDS, full panel size lining boards which remove the
need for joints in normal sized wall panels and provide
improved racking resistance – key for improved panel
handling.
Board sizes of up to 2500mm X 6000mm can be supplied cut
to manufacturer’s panel requirements, reducing on-line
preparation, and any cut-outs returned to British Gypsum
for recycling into the manufacturing process.
The rigid, high impact resistant gypsum fibreboards are
manufactured using a unique process that gives a very
high quality smooth finish, which removes the need for
pre-decoration treatment and cuts out a whole costly and
time-consuming stage of the production process for the
off-site manufacturer.
Visitors to the British Gypsum Stand M120 in Hall 5,
will have the opportunity to see new Glasroc Rigidur H
BIG BOARDS, which are being exhibited for the first
time, as well as the new Glasroc Rigidur-faced extreme
impact partition, GypWall EXTREME, and discuss the
complete product development and support package that
the company now offers to both the on-site and off-site
sectors.
