Built for strength, impact and abrasion resistance
ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE - 35mm
Equivalent to Rw + Ctr 60 for airborne sound transmission
SMARTER ECONOMICS
Significant cost saving compared to both fibre cement and a suspended slab
LIGHTWEIGHT, SOLID FEEL
Easier install with a true concrete feel and sound
BUILT FOR ALL CONDITIONS
No protection needed from water, rain or
traffic
CLEAN, COMPLIANT, PROVEN
Silica-free, non-combustible, NatHERS/BASIX aligned, Aussie made, ISO 9001
