GO Interiors Branch Office

Key facts & challenges

Summary: When this drylining system distributor required it's own drylining solution to create robust partitions, they chose LaDura. The separating wall, between the offices and the busy distribution centre, not only needed to be robust enough to withstand the constant demands of customer footfall and large deliveries but, also make the staff office space comfortable and quiet.The Office walls needed the additional requirement to hang information boards and office equipment. LaDura is Siniat's strongest plasterboard and with this brings the flexibility to move and add workstations due to LaDura's excellent pull out resistance. The direct fixing of hung loads such as computer monitors without the need for pattresses, allows GO Interiors more possibilities with how they use their workspaces and in a busy office environment this can be extremely useful.

Installation Description: "Moving to a purpose built office not only gave us a blank page, but also the opportunity to question what we actually wanted the space to do for us. The separating wall, between the offices and our busy distribution centre, not only needed to be robust but had to meet a requirement for both fire and sound separation. Internally we wanted the flexibility to move and add workstations. Using a board that would take a direct fixing meant we could add, move and re-fix, shelves, wall mounted media screens and information boards."
Installation: Creating a partition between two very diverse business areas is easily achieved with LaDura. Using a single layer system on a metal frame provides a severe duty rating and an excellent acoustic rating. Installing LaDura is simplified by the ability to score and snap the board, unlike a gypsum fibreboards which are heavy and can be difficult to cut and often require power tools, needs a heavy metal frame and lots of screws. The finishing stage is cumbersome, especially for projects which require a smooth, professional finish like multi-residential, healthcare and hotels. ### No Pattressing LaDura's greater pull out resistance means that fixtures and fittings can be easily changed ### Score and Snap LaDura is easy to cut, simplifying the installation process
