Gyproc Steel Profiles and Accessories
Product information
This Environmental Product Declaration (EPD®) describes the environmental impacts of 1 metric tonne of Gyproc® steel profiles and steel accessories (including fixing screws for framing – not for gypsum fixing) for interior and exterior applications which are available with different surface treatments. The profiles have been manufactured from hot-dip galvanized sheet steel in conformity with EN 10346. Zinc coating provides a good level of protection against corrosion. The zinc coating is lead-free and has a minimum zinc content of 99 %.
Gyproc® systems and products are primarily used for the mounting of plasterboard in the construction of interior walls, exterior walls, ceilings and floors. Products can be mounted at the building site or prefabricated as elements. The products are suitable for use in load-bearing and non-load-bearing structures such as curtain walling in apartment buildings, offices, remodeling of residential buildings with penthouses, and remodeling of residential and office buildings. Profiles that are intended to be exposed on the outside of a structure or in external walls are manufactured from galvanized steel with a coating of zinc and a layer of polyurethane to achieve the corrosion class C4. Gyproc® profiles for external walls are slotted in web life to minimize heat conduction and channels are provided with 4 mm polyethylene foam strip to optimize moisture insulation and air sealing. Products to improve sound insulation in internal walls are composed of steel channels and corner profiles with seals made of EPDM rubber.
