Partitions and external walls are used to separate buildings, enclose compartments and contain fire to
provide a barrier to the passage of fire from one side
to the other and are able to satisfy each of the
relevant fire resistance criteria (integrity, insulation and, if the wall is loadbearing, load bearing
capacity) from either side for the prescribed period. The application of partition and external wall systems
using Promat boards covers both non loadbearing and loadbearing
situations in commercial, industrial, institutional,
residential and high-rise constructions, or in the restoration of existing buildings.
Promat’s internal partition systems require less material to achieve similar fire resistant level when compared
to the industry average wallboard partition systems. The single layer board application leads to simplified
construction methods over other equivalents hence increased productivity and reduced overall installation cost. |
