Traditionally, breather membranes have been considered indispensable components of external wall systems, providing essential protection against water ingress while allowing vapour to escape. However, Klasse G-board a gypsum external sheathing board offers a transformative solution that eliminates the need for a separate breather membrane.
An Integrated Solution: Built to Breathe, Designed to Perform
Klasse G-board provides an integrated approach by combining breathability and water resistance within a single product. This innovation is made possible through its advanced construction:
-
GRP Face Covering: Both sides of the board feature a Glass Reinforced Polyester (GRP) face, delivering exceptional durability and water resistance.
-
Enhanced Gypsum Core: The specially engineered core facilitates a breathable system, enabling moisture vapour to escape while preventing water penetration.
This all-in-one design streamlines installation processes and ensures optimal facade performance without the need for additional materials like traditional breather membranes.
The Benefits of Klasse G-board
Klasse G-board offers a host of advantages that set it apart as a preferred choice for architects, contractors, and developers:
-
Streamlined Construction: By eliminating the need for a separate breather membrane, Klasse G-board reduces material requirements and installation time, delivering significant cost savings.
-
Exceptional Weather Resistance: The GRP face ensures superior protection against water ingress, even in the most challenging environmental conditions. It also comes with a 12 month exposure guarantee as standard for every board.
-
Enhanced Breathability: The advanced gypsum core prevents condensation by allowing moisture vapour to escape, contributing to a healthier building envelope.
-
A1 Fire Rating: As a non-combustible board with an A1 fire rating, Klasse G-board meets the highest fire safety standards, ensuring maximum safety for occupants and compliance with regulatory requirements.
-
Sustainability: By minimising the use of materials and simplifying the construction process, Klasse G-board supports sustainable building practices and reduces environmental impact.
