19mm Knauf Plank Tapered Edge Acoustic Plasterboard 2400mm x 600mm

Why Knauf Plank? 

• Knauf Plank is engineered to enhance acoustic performance in spaces where noise reduction is important. 
• As an acoustic mass layer, it adds significant density and mass to the wall assembly, which enhances its ability to block sound. 
• It delivers optimal performance in an acoustic wall system when paired with soundproofing elements such as mineral cavity insulation and acoustic sealant.

Why 19mm? 

• 19mm plasterboard is highly effective at soundproofing due to its greater mass and density, which improve its ability to block sound transmission. 
• Its increased thickness helps reduce noise transfer between rooms or spaces by absorbing and dissipating sound vibrations more effectively than thinner alternatives. 
• It is particularly beneficial in environments where noise reduction is crucial, such as offices, conference rooms, and residential areas.

Why Tapered Edge? 

• Tapered-edge plasterboard features sloped edges that create a recess when joined, making applying joint tape and compound easier for a smooth, paint-ready finish. 
• It minimises visible seams and reduces the amount of joint compound needed, making it ideal for aesthetic-focused projects like walls, ceilings, and partitions.

Why 2400mm x 600mm? 

• 2400mm x 600mm plasterboard is typically used in places where standard 1200mm wide boards would be cumbersome or inefficient. 
•  It is generally used in projects with tight spatial constraints, in modular wall systems, or in renovation work where smaller dimensions are preferred for ease of installation. 
• Despite their smaller width, these boards offer the same durability and finish as standard plasterboards.

Storage & Handling

• Store boards horizontally to prevent warping or sagging. 
• Shield boards from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. 
• A cool, dry, and well-ventilated storage area is ideal. 
• Avoid direct contact with the ground. 
• Store boards on a level surface, such as pallets or timber supports, to prevent moisture absorption and damage.
