10 Metal products - system index Introduction Gypframe metal systems As the backbone of British Gypsum high performance systems, Gypframe components must be used to qualify for our unique SpecSure lifetime system warranty. SpecSure guarantees that the system and its components are of the highest quality and have been tested at a UKAS-accredited fire, acoustic and structural test laboratory for their compatibility and ability to provide the specified performance level throughout the life of the building. It provides reassurance in the unlikely event of system or component failure, giving the installer and building owner peace of mind for the future. All Gypframe metal components are produced to the latest European manufacturing standard EN 14195, under an ISO 9001 certified Quality Management System, and under ISO 14001: 2004 Environmental Management Systems. The EN standard does not cover component design or system performance, therefore other products manufactured to this standard cannot be substituted into British Gypsum systems without risk of system performance failure. This section is a guide to the Gypframe profiles and accessories available as standard, upgraded or optional components in the most popular British Gypsum systems. System focus SpecSure Unique to British Gypsum, the SpecSure lifetime system warranty is designed to give you total confidence that the systems you have chosen will meet the most rigorous of building requirements. All of our systems are developed using the highest quality components designed to work together, and are specially developed to give you a lifetime of confidence. L I F E T I M E SPECSURE S Y S T E M W A R R A N T Y SpecSure is more than just a performance warranty. It means that the British Gypsum systems you specify have a guaranteed lifetime performance, and will be repaired or replaced by British Gypsum in the unlikely event of system failure attributed to unsatisfactory product / system performance. 8

42 Metal products Introduction Gypframe metal products The modern, engineered alternative to traditional timber and blockwork construction, Gypframe-based wall, ceiling and floor systems are quicker and easier to install, whilst meeting the highest performance requirements. Up to 50% lighter than equivalent timber systems, and up to 70% lighter than blockwork, Gypframe metal products are easier to transport and offer a high strength to weight ratio for guaranteed performance and long life. Gypframe components are easy to cut on site, non-flammable, won t rot, twist or warp. They can be stored outside and installed in any weather, making it easier to schedule work. The patented UltraSTEEL process gives the components greater strength, makes fixing easier and improves screw retention and pull-out by up to 20%. That s why only systems built using Gypframe metal components qualify for the British Gypsum SpecSure lifetime system warranty peace of mind that they will perform to specification throughout their entire installed life. Product focus NEW Gypframe folded edge range expansion Following the popular introduction of the folded edge to our Gypframe Standard Floor & Ceiling Channel range last year, we are expanding the range so that all Gypframe Deep Flange Floor & Ceiling Channels, and a Gypframe Angle now have folded edges. Incorporating a fold onto the leading edge of a profile provides a safer working edge without increasing the overall footprint of the partition. 40

43 This section of the Trade Catalogue contains all the individual Gypframe profiles and Gypframe metal accessories.

56 Plasterboards Introduction Gyproc plasterboards The widest range of high quality plasterboards to meet differing performance requirements for walls, ceilings, floors, partitions and encasements for any type of building. The Gyproc plasterboard product range provides solutions for enhanced moisture, fire, acoustic, impact and thermal performance. For major projects, Gyproc plasterboards can be supplied in bespoke lengths, reducing waste and board cutting on site and contributing to improved environmental performance and site health & safety. Bespoke length boards can reduce the amount of material required, which in turn reduces deliveries and vehicle movements, helping to reduce the overall carbon footprint of the project. Product focus Further improvements to manual handling guidance In 2011 we introduced manual handling guidance on all our Gyproc plasterboard products 1. Following customer feedback, and to further improve this guidance, we have now introduced the board weight in this Trade Catalogue. This is to ensure board weight is clear for loading, order placement, movement on site, and secondary movement at all points throughout the supply chain. NB All board weights are accurate at time of publication and will be reviewed / updated as required. 1 Excluding Gyproc DUPLEX and Gyproc ThermaLine products. Example of board printing. 54

70 Specialist boards Introduction Designed to offer outstanding performance in key areas such as fire performance, and resistance against water and impact, these boards can be used for a range of specialist applications in commercial, industrial and residential buildings, as well as the off-site sector. Glasroc F Non-combustible Glasroc F boards, developed using groundbreaking paper-free glass fibre technology, provide the basis for a range of steel encasement and specialist lining systems. These offer quick and simple installation, and measurable performance for maximum protection and safety. The high impact resistance, moisture tolerance, and thermal properties of Glasroc F make it suitable for installation in semi-exposed areas before the building envelope is complete, saving cost and time on major projects. Rigidur H Offering superior mechanical strength, dimensional stability and environmental benefits, Rigidur H is a gypsum fibre board, manufactured from recycled paper fibre. It has been developed for high traffic applications and to meet the specialist requirements of modern methods of construction, including off-site manufacturing. The 100% recyclable board is available in bespoke oversized alternatives for improved productivity and reduced jointing. Product focus A NEW ADDITION to the Glasroc family! Glasroc H - enhanced Glasroc H (Hydro) technology (egrg) is a derivative of the patented Glass Reinforced Gypsum (GRG) technology of Glasroc F, developed and used by British Gypsum for over 20 years for a multitude of construction requirements. Glasroc H TILEBACKER provides outstanding performance as a tile backing board in environments where there is frequent exposure to water, such as shower cubicles and wet rooms. The yellow pre-primed acrylic surface resists water, protecting the covered wall and system, whilst providing an optimum surface key for direct tiling or decoration. 68
