Drywall is used to create arches, various decor rooms, partitions, wall openings, etc. Creating beautiful decorative elements cannot do without a strong support, which is represented by Knauf partitions. What is a Knauf partition? In fact she looks like plasterboard construction, in which the frame consists entirely of a metal profile. The design is created using a special technology that eliminates various unforeseen circumstances.
Knauf partitions can be different. They are installed in different rooms, with different sound insulation, for different purposes. Partitions can be different types and are divided according to certain parameters.
According to their design, partitions are divided into:
In addition to these types, there are partitions with built-in special channels for ventilation and communication. Next parameter, according to which the partitions are divided - this is the frame, or rather its type. Frames can be double or single.
The use of partitions based on a double frame is recommended if you need to create a strong a reliable wall, which will withstand heavy .
Creating partitions with single frames is recommended in places where sound insulation is not so important and the walls will not be burdened with heavy pieces of furniture or appliances. We can conclude that the double frame is more durable.
Why is drywall and Knauf partitions so popular? Since the 90s, drywall has been almost synonymous with the word European-quality renovation. On Russian market this material appeared thanks to the Knauf company. The material was accompanied by instructions that described in detail how to create various designs from plasterboard sheets. The technology has gained great popularity due to the excellent quality of the product.
The main advantages of partitions made of plasterboard Knauf are:
The use of Knauf partitions is still popular today. The correct selection of a set of partitions can provide excellent sound insulation, high strength and reliability of the walls. As mentioned above, there are different strengths and sound insulation, depending on the type of room you should choose a suitable kit.
The installation technology using the Knauf system is not much different from the standard installation procedure. However, there are still some differences, which will be discussed below. Together with the drywall material, the Knauf company brought special technology And general recommendations for the installation of partitions.
They look like this:
In addition to the above recommendations, it is necessary to take into account the installation features of the frame. In order for the entire system to serve for a long time, you need to ensure that the joints from the gypsum plasterboard partition above the door opening are not located on the racks attached to the frame. Instructions for assembling the frame for fastening gypsum boards in our material:.
In addition, the seam must be made so that it is in that part of the intermediate guide that is located above the horizontal beam. Horizontal beam serves as the upper limit. Following these recommendations will help you make a long-lasting, high-quality design.
Exist Various types partitions that suit different room parameters. At the moment, there are about 25 kits for installing partitions using the Knauf system on sale. All sets are marked with the letter "C", which is combined with a specific set number.
To select the right installation kit, consider the following factors:
Having decided on the parameters of the room, it will be much easier for you to choose a partition. For example, a bedroom adjacent to the kitchen or living room requires a high degree of sound insulation, so the installation kit should be selected accordingly. If the bedroom is adjacent to the wall of the neighboring apartment, then even more so the partition should have a high degree of protection from unwanted noise.
Plasterboard partitions Knauf - worthy and reliable way to build a wall in the desired location. Simplicity and ease of use and installation will help make the installation process easy and enjoyable. With this technology, the issue of unnecessary noise will be closed for you forever.
Distribution internal space In a house or apartment, dividing rooms into rooms today is most efficiently and quickly accomplished by installing plasterboard partitions using KNAUF technology. Application modern materials allows you to assemble internal structures of any complexity in any operating conditions. The main advantages of the technology were rapid installation, a high degree of constructability and sound insulation properties due to the use of fillers.
The partitions are frame structure with double-sided lining sheet plasterboard and filling soundproofing material. They provide for the installation of sockets, laying electrical and low current wiring, internal pipeline fittings. The structures are designed for operation in both dry and dry conditions. wet areas, as well as for hanging furniture and resistance to mechanical stress.
Depending on the conditions and architectural features Rooms have different requirements for the partition. The main criteria to build on are:
GCRs vary in thickness and specialization. In terms of thickness - sheets for frame (12.5 mm) and frameless (9.5 mm) installation. Since the partition is made on a frame, you should choose plasterboard with a thickness of 12.5 mm.
9.5 mm sheets are designed for adhesive mounting or sheathing old surface with support on the entire plane. At the same time, dividing plasterboard into wall and ceiling is erroneous.
According to their specialization, gypsum plasterboards are divided into standard, moisture-resistant, impact-resistant and fire-resistant.
The moisture-resistant material is used in wet rooms - bathrooms, swimming pools, bathrooms, kitchens, etc.
Impact-resistant is used when there is a likelihood of mechanical impacts provided for by the purpose of the room, for example, gyms, children's rooms. Due to its increased strength, such plasterboard is also used for the construction of structures 8 m or more in height. Fire-resistant HA is used in rooms with increased fire safety requirements, as well as for lining areas where it is planned to install a stove, boiler or electric heating devices. Standard ones are cheaper and are great for dry residential and public spaces.
Covering the frame with HA sheets can be done in either one or two layers. An ordinary partition that does not perform load-bearing functions, performed with single layer cladding. If necessary, hang any equipment, furniture on it or perform cladding with massive ceramic tiles, the sheets are mounted in 2 layers.
If it is intended to use impact-resistant sheets with two-layer sheathing, the first layer can be made simple drywall. It is also possible to implement a “warm wall” using IR heating film. In this case, the film is mounted on the first layer of HA, and the second layer can be applied in sheets 9.5 mm thick.
Galvanized PN profiles with a base of 50, 75 or 100 mm and a shelf width of 40 mm are used as guides. Rack-mounted - PS must correspond to the guides, so they have a corresponding base width that is 2 mm smaller with a shelf width of 50 mm. All KNAUF profiles have a wall thickness of 0.6 mm, which differs from products from other manufacturers with a wall thickness of 0.4 mm.
The choice of size is made depending on the height of the partition and sound insulation requirements. For a height of up to 3 m, it is enough to use a profile with a width of 50 mm, from 3 to 5 m - 75 mm, and over 5 m - with a width of 100 mm. Naturally, the wider the frame, the greater the distance between the walls will be, and, therefore, the thicker the sound insulation layer. Therefore, if the requirements for sound insulation performance are increased, then even for standard height 2.5 m partitions, profiles should be chosen wider.
The assembly of plasterboard partitions using KNAUF technology begins with the installation of the frame. This part of the structure will be hidden and, if mistakes are made, the entire structure will have to be dismantled. Therefore, this stage must be taken with complete seriousness and compliance with all rules.
Marking the structure should begin from the floor. To draw an even line, you need to measure the extreme points and stretch the thread between them. You can transfer the markings to the walls and ceiling using a plumb line. The partition installation lines are marked with a pencil on all 4 planes (walls, floor and ceiling).
Professionals use a laser level for these purposes, which speeds up and simplifies the process. You also need to mark the location of the doorway, marking it on a line drawn on the floor.
Before installing the guide elements, sealing tape must be applied to the sides adjacent to the walls of the floor and ceiling. This will reduce sound transmission and prevent cracks in the finish.
The profiles are set at an angle between the base and the shelf along the marked lines. Fastening to the floor and walls is done with plastic dowel-nails, and to the ceiling - with metal anchor dowels. Guides on the floor are not installed at the doorway location.
Based standard width GKL - 120 cm, racks are installed in increments of 40 or 60 cm, so that each sheet rests on vertical profiles along the edges and in the middle. The required number of racks is cut so that their length is 1 cm less than the ceiling height. This is done for ease of installation and compensation for the deflection of the ceiling, as well as seismic loads.
Then the racks are inserted into the lower and upper guide profiles with shelves in the direction of installation of the drywall and are aligned strictly vertically. Verticality is verified using a leveling rod. Immediately after alignment, the stand is fastened to the guide using a cutter.
Taking into account the massiveness of the doors, as well as the dynamics during their operation, a reinforced UA profile with a wall thickness of 2 mm is used for the doorway. According to the marking of the opening, 2 sections of UA profiles are aligned vertically into the guides and through them secured to the floor and ceiling with dowels using special adjustable brackets. The upper contour of the doorway is limited by a horizontal section of the PN profile, fixed in the same way as lintels.
Often they use 2 rack profiles inserted into each other in the form of a box, but this is not enough for the weight of the door and the dynamics of the loads.
The jumpers are made from a guide strip and installed in a horizontal position between the racks at the calculated locations of the horizontal joints of the GC sheets. To do this, a profile is cut 20 cm longer than the distance between the posts. Then 10 cm is measured on both sides and the shelves are cut at an angle of 45° from the intended line to the edges of the shelves. After which the edges are bent at right angles. In each horizontal line, jumpers are mounted alternately, alternating with bent ends up and down.
Thus, the bent parts are put on the racks and do not interfere with each other. The jumpers are also secured using a cutter. When the frame is installed, a dividing tape is glued along the junction with the ceiling in order to prevent the appearance of cracks in the corners.
Installation of drywall is carried out in conditions of relatively constant humidity, so work should be planned after completion of all wet processes - pouring screed, plastering and drying. After delivering the HA sheets to the installation site, they must be kept for 24 hours to acclimatize (even out the humidity). During this time, the material is stored in a horizontal position without direct contact with the floor. In an inclined position, the sheets may become deformed.
Sheathing of the frame starts from the bottom with a distance of 1 cm from the floor. Based on the standard sheet length of 250 cm and the height of the ceiling, as well as taking into account the gap between the bottom end and the floor, it is necessary to calculate the height of the required section of gypsum board under the ceiling. According to the Knauf plasterboard installation technology, it is not allowed to use sections shorter than 40 cm, so if, as a result of the calculation, this size turns out to be smaller, then installation must begin with half a sheet. All horizontal ends are processed with a special edge plane, with a chamfer angle of 22.5° to a depth of 1/3 of the thickness. For installation bottom sheet you need to prepare linings 1 cm thick to maintain the appropriate distance from the floor.
Installation is carried out staggered so that the horizontal joints do not coincide along the same line and are spaced at least 40 cm in height. The sheets are fastened to the frame using TN 25 screws in increments of 25 cm. The screw is screwed in with a distance from the end edge of at least 15 mm and from the longitudinal edge - 10 mm. The screw must penetrate into the frame to a depth of at least 10 mm, and the head must be recessed by 1 mm. The sheets are not attached to the guides on the floor and ceiling.
For plating doorways the vertical joint should not be in line with the opening, so in sheathing material make an L-shaped cutout.
After covering one side of the partition, mineral heat and sound insulation is placed in the cavity between the walls. It should be laid tightly against the frame elements without gaps. Roll or slab material selected according to thickness equal to the distance between the walls.
The wiring is then pulled through the structural holes in the racks. If necessary, you can drill additional holes in advance and process their edges so as not to damage the insulation of the wires. After this, you can begin covering the second side using a similar technology.
Upon completion of the installation of drywall, holes are drilled in the designated places using an annular cutter for installing sockets.
It is more convenient to install sockets opposite each other on both sides of the partition. This saves wiring, but reduces the soundproofing properties of the partition, so it’s better to do it right and install adjacent sockets with a horizontal offset of 10-15 cm.
Vertical and horizontal joints are treated with a primer 3 hours before puttying. The seams are sealed with high-strength gypsum putty in 2 stages. First, the joints are covered with putty. Immediately apply a paper reinforcing tape over the fresh solution, lightly pressing it in with a spatula. The corner joints of the partition with the wall are reinforced with perforated corner profiles. The covering layer is applied to the seams only after the first layer has completely dried. In the case of two-layer sheathing, the joints of the first layer are puttied without reinforcing tape.
The formed partition plane is a rough surface and is subject to facial finishing. Wallpapering and painting can be used as cladding. water-based paints or cladding tiles.
In any case, the entire surface will have to be puttied and leveled to the level of the seams. Before puttying, it is advisable to treat the entire surface with a primer, and after it dries, putty the screw heads.
The putty is applied in a thin, even layer. The starting layer will be enough for subsequent wallpapering with a preliminary primer. wallpaper glue according to the manufacturer's instructions.
To paint the wall must be brought to perfect condition. To do this, a finishing gypsum solution is applied over the dried starting layer. After drying, sanding with a float and the obligatory primer are carried out. If you neglect the primer before painting, the paint on the seams and between them will be absorbed unevenly, resulting in stains.
For facing wall tiles, an ideal surface is not required and you can limit yourself to only a starting layer of putty. It should be borne in mind that tiles are usually used in wet rooms, and this favorable conditions for fungal growth. Therefore, before puttying, the primer should be made with a special composition containing a fungicide.
Before laying, the wall is covered with a special waterproofing compound intended for subsequent laying of tiles. The composition is applied with a brush, preferably in 2 layers. The tiles are laid after the waterproofing has dried using tile adhesive, just like on other surfaces in damp rooms.
As already mentioned, plasterboard partitions using the KNAUF system, designed for hanging shelves, cabinets and other interior elements, are made with two-layer cladding. The technology for fastening hinged elements depends on weight, which determines the choice of fasteners.
For fastening the following are used:
For reliability, when selecting a fastening structure, it is necessary to take into account a safety margin of at least 30%.
Alfons and Karl Knauf are brothers. Both were educated as mining engineers and, due to the nature of their activities, became particularly interested in natural material– plaster. Having studied its properties, they decided to use them in order to speed up, reduce the cost and improve the quality of some construction processes.
The implementation of their project fell during the economic crisis. It’s as if time itself was helping the future bigwigs of the construction industry. In 1932 they founded the company "Reinische Gipsindustri und Bergwerksunternemen".
Having collected Required documents and having received an indulgence to develop a gypsum mine in Schengen, the brothers opened a plant in the city of Perl. There they began to produce dry construction mixtures based on natural gypsum for plastering surfaces.
In 1949, in the city of Iphofen, which is located in Northern Bavaria, the Knaufs established a plant for the production building mixtures based on gypsum. The headquarters of the Knauf company are currently located here. In 1958, they opened the first plant for the production of plasterboard sheets.
During the years of German economic prosperity, the company developed rapidly and from a relatively small enterprise turned into a family with subsidiaries around the world. In 1993 they began their activities in Russia. Many enterprises equipped with modern equipment, where a uniform production technology and quality standard are used.
But Knauf does not rest on its laurels, the company is developing new projects and offering the consumer:
Knauf enterprises produce high-quality finishing materials:
On two latest groups products, we will stop and tell you what drywall and Knauf profiles are, about production characteristics, sizes and installation.
The products manufactured by this manufacturer are used to perform interior finishing work using the “dry” method. It's practical and fast. Drywall sheets are classified according to their properties:
A sheet of ordinary (standard) plasterboard is used in rooms where natural temperature conditions and normal humidity are maintained. They can be used to veneer interior walls residential premises, offices, enterprises.
Standard sheets according to external sign differ from other species in color scheme– have grey colour and blue markings. They are not expensive and are used much more often than others.
Having studied its characteristics, we talked about them in detail in the article “”, we can state that such a sheet:
When you plan to make repairs in your home and change the contours of its premises, you can use the following Knauf plasterboard sheets for the walls:
Sheets moisture-resistant plasterboard should be used where it is intended high humidity or the room is poorly ventilated. Specifications sheets make it possible to install additional partitions and improve the walls:
For these works, it is better to use Knauf sheets shown in the table below:
The color of the leaf is green and has blue markings.
Sheets of fire-resistant plasterboard are used where the temperature is high and fire safety measures must be strictly observed. The technical characteristics of the named finishing material indicate that they can:
For these purposes, Knauf offers the following sheets:
GKLO differs from other types pink and red markings.
Now that you know what types of drywall there are, its sizes, technical characteristics, insignia, you can proceed to the next section and find out how to install sheets to a vertical surface.
All metal profiles at Knauf factories are manufactured in accordance with the conditions TU 1121-012-04001508-2011. These are elements of a certain length, made of steel strip using the cold rolling method on modern roll forming machines. They are for protection from aggressive influence environmental protection are covered with galvanized coating.
With the help of such structures, a frame for sheathing is assembled; they serve as a rigid base, on which plasterboard sheets are then laid.
Profiles have standard lengths: 2750, 3000, 4000, 4500 mm. But at the request and agreement with the customer, their height can vary from 500 to 6000 mm.
Work on cutting and assembling metal products is carried out using specialized tools, such as electric shears, cutters, a hacksaw or other devices.
The following structures are required for the frame:
Knauf brand plasterboard sheets are quite popular in construction market Russia material. The technology of their installation has a significant advantage over other facing building materials.
The absence of so-called wet processes during operation significantly reduces time and installation becomes easier. With minimal labor and money costs, a perfectly flat surface is achieved.
Designers had a unique opportunity to realize their most daring projects. And the technology for laying sheets is so simple that it can be done by a person far from construction.
It is worth remembering that installation work must be carried out under normal humidity and temperature conditions.
You need to know that gypsum board can be installed in two ways, each of them has its own technical differences:
We will dwell on this technique in more detail, reveal its technical aspects and give recommendations from the manufacturer.
By Knauf technologies the entire process should include the following steps:
Installation work should begin before the installation of a clean floor, provided that the room has plumbing, technical and electrical systems. The temperature should be at least +10 °C and the humidity should be normal, this mandatory requirements according to SNiP 02/23/2003. If winter time– the building must be heated.
This technology makes it possible to insulate a room without any problems, improve its sound insulation, lay and hide communications, and create various structural elements.
Each specialist has a certain minimum of tools and equipment. We recommend a standard set that you cannot do without:
This profile is more durable and reliable. All its varieties are produced at Knauf industrial plants and comply with standards. The installation process undergoes quality control at all stages of work: first after installing the frame, then after laying drywall, then installing joints and seams.
This technology is:
The sheets are joined in a staggered manner. Avoid joints where window mullions are or where a drywall doorway is. As a result, a crack will definitely appear in this place. It is better to pre-install the intermediate profile and additionally fix the sheet.
The heads of self-tapping screws or screws must be well recessed into the surface by 1 mm or more. After puttying there will be no depressions on the surface.
Do not forget to leave a gap of 10–15 mm high between the gypsum plasterboard and the floor, and 5 mm at the junction with the ceiling. Subsequently, it will be covered with a putty solution and taped with a separating tape, the edges of which will then be carefully cut off.
External joining corners can be reinforced with a protective perforated corner. finishing it will be completely covered with putty.
Where the sheet meets the door or window frames, decorate its edges decorative trims when you do the finishing touches.
For moisture-resistant plasterboard sheets, screws with a sharper conical head are used. The pitch is no more than 300 mm.
If there is a need to hang a hundred or on the wall, then know that with a weight of no more than 10-15 kg per 1 linear meter wall surface, it can be secured using special anchor bolts for gypsum boards or dowels for gypsum boards anywhere. These may not be heavy openwork shelves, cornices, paintings, sconces or others lighting. But if you plan to exploit kitchen cabinets, then it is necessary to install additional embedded parts in the places of future fastening. Specialists should take care of this during the installation of the metal frame.
As soon as your walls have received a new look, you should begin to putty, process the joints and places where the screw heads are located.
But we will talk about this in the article, which will be called “;”.
KNAUF plasterboard is one of the highest quality and most sought-after materials on the construction and finishing materials. More on the basic principles of working with KNAUF drywall, components and other useful details.
IMPORTANT! Drywall and components from KNAUF are often compared with similar products from VOLMA, citing the low cost and quality of domestic plasterboard. If you have a choice, KNAUF or VOLMA, you should proceed from the expected budget and the type of structure being performed (not all structures can be built using VOLMA products; KNAUF has a wider range of materials application).
When working with drywall, one of the main conditions for quality work is the choice of materials and components from one manufacturer.
To cut a plasterboard slab, turn the sheet over front side towards you and cut it according to the markings using a utility knife and a strip or metal bar. Then the sheet is broken along the edge. All you have to do is cut through the cardboard from the back.
IMPORTANT! After cutting any sheet of drywall, if it is intended that the sheet will be cut into a joint with another sheet, it is necessary to chamfer it at an angle of 45° using a plane.
Knauf plasterboard, depending on the type of structure and its purpose, can be attached to an existing one monolithic wall on glue (ceiling plasterboard is attached only to frames), and installed on metal carcass. If it is necessary to divide the room, you can use KNAUF partitions with racks: install KNAUF, and then sheathe it on both sides with sheets of plasterboard.
Photo 2 - Wall covering with KNAUF plasterboard boards
The method involves fixing plasterboard slabs to the walls using glue. This method can only be used with slight curvature of the walls (up to 4 mm).
In this case, material is laid between the wall and the plasterboard slabs along the frame for additional sound or heat insulation of the room.
IMPORTANT! For wall coverings, plasterboard thinner than 12.5 mm is not used. If the wall covered with plasterboard is subsequently planned to be tiled with ceramic tiles, it will be necessary to cover not one, but two slabs of plasterboard.
Correct installation technology
- Drywall boards should be fastened to a metal frame or a frame made of wood using Knauf self-tapping screws. Fastening the sheets should begin from the center of the gypsum board or from the upper corner to avoid deformation of the slabs. It is important that the screw attachment NK 11 is used, ensuring proper immersion of the screw head into the sheet of drywall (necessary for finishing putty sheet).
- In order for you to end up with an optimal seam, Knauf plasterboard boards should be installed end-to-end, without a gap.
- There should be no cross-shaped seams during the installation process. That is, the end edge of the drywall sheets should have a slight offset - by the distance between the posts, the so-called axial distance.
Plasterboard sheathing: correct fastening with screws
- The distance between the screws when covering walls should be 25 cm, when working on ceilings with KNAUF plasterboard - 17 cm.
- Sheathing screw length metal structure We calculate based on: thickness of the gypsum plaster board +1 cm.
- Sheathing screw length wooden structure: gypsum board thickness + 2 cm.
Technical characteristics of KNAUF sheets using the example of moisture-resistant plasterboard
- Cardboard color is green.
- Edge type - PLUK (semicircular thinned edge).
- Main dimensions, mm − 2,500/1,200/12.5 ( standard sheet for floors and interior partitions).
- Weight of GKLV KNAUF (2,500/1,200/12.5 mm, 3 m²) - 29 kg.
Geometric parameters of GKLV KNAUF
- length - from 2,000 to 4,000 mm (and in increments of 50);
- width - from 600 to 1,200 mm;
- thickness (depending on the length of the sheet) - 6.5; 8; 9.5 mm (for sheet lengths up to 2,000 mm), 12.5; 14; 16 mm (for sheet lengths up to 4,000 mm), as well as sheets on special order with a thickness of 18; 20 and 24 mm.
Technology of covering a brick wall with KNAUF slabs
- When working in a medium-sized room, it is necessary to prepare about 30 kg of Knauf Perlfix. The dry mixture is poured into a container with clean water(volume about 17 l) and stir until smooth.
- The plasterboard slabs are cut, after which the Knauf Perlfix solution is distributed along the back side of the sheets with marks in increments of 35 cm. The distance to the edges should be at least 5 cm. And also apply a series of clumps along the longitudinal axis of the sheet.
- The slabs are placed in a vertical position and pressed against the base of the wall, leveling.
IMPORTANT! Perlfix sets in about 10 minutes. During this time, the slabs are adjusted to the level using a rubber hammer and a block.
Alignment of walls on a frame basis to improve sound and heat insulation
- Knauf UD profiles are cut to size using metal scissors.
IMPORTANT! To ensure better sound insulation, before attaching the UD profile to the floor and ceiling, a special KNAUF self-adhesive soundproofing tape is applied to the profiles.
- Knauf UD profiles are attached to the floor and ceiling at the above distance from the main wall using Knauf K6/35 dowels. Wherein maximum distance between dowels should be no more than 1 m).
IMPORTANT! Sound insulation can be improved by leaving a distance of 50 mm or more between the front edge of the frame and the existing wall.
- To support the CD profile in the middle of the height of the walls (taking into account the fact that the maximum permissible distance is 1.5 m), direct KNAUF hangers are attached to the wall using pin dowels, with soundproofing tape laid in them in advance.
- CD profiles 60/27 must be installed with a pitch of 60 cm vertically in relation to the UD profiles, after which the fasteners must be connected with screws. Direct hangers are also attached.
- Install Knauf plasterboard sheet insulation. Now you can start fixing the sheets themselves to the frame using self-tapping screws (maximum distance between screws is 25 cm).
Axial distance between CD profiles at vertical cladding plasterboard sheets is: if the width of the plasterboard board is 1,200 mm, the axial distance is 60 cm.
You can buy Knauf plasterboard in almost all major construction supermarkets in the country.. On sale you can find both standard and moisture-resistant gypsum plasterboards; also, upon order from the warehouse, you can bring perforated acoustic plasterboard to increase the sound insulation of the room or fire-resistant plasterboard to organize passive fire protection in rooms with high probability appearance of an open flame.

The German company Knauf has long been considered a European and world construction standard, and the set of measures, which in our country is called European-quality renovation, is based on the achievements, materials and technologies obtained thanks to the developments of this particular company.
Without going too much into historical digressions and amendments, just for the sake of interest, I would like to note that this company, which began as a family business in Bavaria, represents its products in almost 40 countries around the world. And the total number of enterprises of this corporation of “monsters” (in a good and business context) has long crossed the 200 mark. Now let’s leave the historical and statistical calculations and move on to more practical things - technology.
Thanks to its principles, mixed with German quality, the company quickly became a leader: it is considered and its opinion is listened to all over the world. It is not for nothing that Knauf has practically no full-fledged competitors on the world market.
This success is based on two basic principles:
The company meticulously pays attention to all the details. Considering that they cannot exist as such, everything is important.
The installation instructions for Knauf drywall begin with coverage of the selection of materials and tools. It is clear that the company tried to declare its products, but as they say, it has the right to do so.
For your information! For the convenience of sellers and buyers, each sheet of drywall has its own color and markings. IN household use the most popular and frequently purchased are ordinary plasterboard sheets and moisture-resistant plasterboard sheets, sheet thickness 12.5 mm for walls, and 9 mm for ceilings
For your information! The Knauf drywall installation technology involves the use of exclusively “native” parts described in this subsection.
Well, we inform lovers of pure experiments that, of course, technologies exist and they must be followed. And for practitioners, everything described in this paragraph can be perfectly replaced with fragments of the UD-27 profile. The only thing that will be technologically more difficult to replace is direct suspension.
