Moisture Protection
Principle
High humidity, especially in enclosed spaces, demands particular attention. It's crucial to understand the effects of chemical agents and ensure effective protection against corrosion. These conditions are decisive when choosing the appropriate materials and systems for each construction project.
Whether with water-resistant plasterboards or AQUAPANEL cement boards, Knauf offers optimal solutions for every situation, guaranteeing both efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Knauf Products & Systems: Expertise in Moisture Protection
Water-Resistant Plasterboard
This plasterboard, enhanced with water-repellent additives and covered with green cardboard sheets, is designed to offer increased resistance to moisture. It stands out due to its reduced water absorption capacity, its non-combustible nature, and its ease of handling. It's ideal for interior spaces where ambient humidity is controlled, such as toilets, bathrooms, and kitchens, where humidity does not permanently exceed 70%.
AQUAPANEL Cement Board Indoor
AQUAPANEL Cement Board Indoor is a hydrophobic cement-based panel designed to be 100% water-resistant. It provides a solid and durable substrate for tiling in humid or wet environments, such as domestic bathrooms, public showers, kitchens, swimming pools, and commercial premises.
