Plasterboard systems – Plasterboard riser casings

Nida vertical shaft casings

The NIDA Shaft System allows service shafts in buildings to be concealed and provides an attractive finish to the building. This is why it is becoming an increasingly popular choice among contractors.

Importantly, the use of this system enables compliance with the building’s fire safety requirements, as it provides fire resistance up to class (R)EI120. It is also possible to install access doors measuring up to 80cm x 80cm, whilst maintaining the fire resistance parameters.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE NIDA SHAFT SYSTEM

The use of the NIDA Szacht system enables:

• concealing service risers and providing an aesthetic finish to the shaft enclosure. The system allows for the creation of an enclosure with a flat and smooth surface, as well as inspection doors that are flush with the finished surface.
• ensuring fire safety within the building. Service shafts typically run through all or several storeys of a building, passing through ceilings that act as fire barriers. Therefore, the shafts must be protected to the required fire resistance class to prevent the spread of fire from one storey to another. NIDA Szacht installation shaft enclosures, thanks to the use of quadruple cladding with NIDA Ogień Plus 4x15.0mm plasterboard, guarantee fire resistance in class (R)EI120.
• improved acoustic comfort in the room. The system is characterised by very good sound insulation properties. This prevents sounds from the installations inside the shaft from entering the room. The use of cladding made from NIDA Twarda 4x15mm plasterboard and 100mm-thick mineral wool insulation with a minimum density of 50kg/m³ allows for the construction of a free-standing cladding with sound insulation performance of Rw=68dB.

NIDA HYDRO panel

Specialist gypsum-chipboard (Type DEFH1IR) with fibres and a cardboard coating offering enhanced impact resistance, intended for use in particular in public buildings (schools, hospitals, sports halls) and other areas exposed to greater impact than residential premises, in rooms with increased periodic humidity and in rooms with fire resistance requirements.

It is an alternative to gypsum fibre boards.

BENEFITS:

+ Enhanced mechanical properties.
+ Moisture resistance.
+ Enhanced fire resistance.
+ Properties and advantages of standard gypsum fibreboard, such as: ease of cutting, installation and transport.
+ Increased water resistance.

NIDA HARDBOARD

intended for use in particular in public buildings (schools, hospitals, sports halls) and other areas exposed to impact to a greater extent than residential premises, in rooms with increased periodic humidity and in rooms with fire resistance requirements.

It is an alternative to gypsum fibreboards.

BENEFITS
