Dry Floor Screed Board
Dry Floor Screed Boards
Just as drywall plasterboard systems revolutionised wall and lining
construction, massively speeding up build programmes and improving
quality across the board, Knauf Brio dry floor screed boards are now
revolutionising screeding.
Knauf Brio dry floor screed boards are made using the latest gypsum
fibre technology, with precision engineered lapped edges to ensure a
virtually seamless finished surface ready to receive the final floor
finish.
Knauf Brio is a dry system, so it can be laid extremely quickly by
relatively unskilled labour. There are no drying or setting issues and
Brio is ready for traffic within 24 hours.
Knauf Brio provides many great advantages over wet floor screeds:
- Brio is thermally transparent, making it ideal for underfloor
heating and cooling systems with high efficiency and instant
responses to changes in temperature settings
- Brio WF combines the strength of Brio with a wood fibre underlay
to reduce impact sound transmission in a single, light, thin section
- Brio is lightweight and comes in thicknesses from 18-33mm. The
reduction in overall floor height and mass can save money throughout
the project, from reducing brick courses to reducing structural
requirements in towers. Brio is perfect for refurbishment projects
as well
- Brio is a dry system so there are no issues with pumping screed
material, waiting for it to dry or cure, or issues with the
consistency of the mix
- Brio is very simple to install and handle on site. No specially
skilled labour is required - a drywall contractor or carpenter will
find it easy
- Knauf Brio is non-combustible and classified as Building
Material Class A1
Knauf Drywall & the Environment - Gypsum Waste Recycling
Knauf Drywall has a firm commitment to the environment. We are active
in gypsum waste recycling and aim to use the most sustainable sources of
gypsum available. We have created Knauf Futurepanel which is the UK’s
first carbon-neutral plasterboard with a core made from at least 10%
reclaimed waste gypsum collected from building sites. Knauf Futurepanel
is a 10kg/m2 board to suit housing requirements and can be substituted
for standard Wallboard in partition and lining specifications, giving
identical or better system performance.
Further innovative actions from Knauf Drywall were demonstrated when we
successfully tested our ability to deliver plasterboard to the Olympic
construction sites by water.
The feasibility study allowed Knauf Drywall to try different methods of
packaging, loading and unloading the plasterboard, and delivered
valuable data on the costs and practicalities of transport by barge.
We run our own gypsum waste recycling scheme and also do our bit to
change site practices as well. For example Knauf Drywall Technical team
have pioneered an “Enviro” door jamb detail which stops the unnecessary
wastage of plasterboard when creating door openings in the traditional
way.
