Gyproc - Habito

Product Description

CHARACTERISTICS

Habito® boards give you the flexibility to restyle or renovate rooms or even redesign your entire home. The unique composition of the plaster core gives Habito® boards their exceptional qualities allowing objects weighing up to 30kg to be hung from a simple chipboard screw with a diameter of 5mm. Whether you are installing curtain rods, flat screens, wall bars, cabinets or paintings, mounting objects will not get any easier.

EXTREME SHOCK-RESISTANCE

An additional advantage of Habito® is its durability. Thanks to the solid core, Habito® boards are up to five times stronger than regular boards and are more resistant to repeated impacts of children playing, moving furniture and everyday wear and tear.

SOUND INSULATION

Gyproc® walls made from Gyproc Habito® boards together with metal stud sections and mineral wool reduce noise from adjacent rooms.

EASY TO INSTALL

Habito® boards can be handled in the same way as standard boards. Despite the special strong plaster core, Habito® boards are easy to trim- simply cut into the board with a safety cutter and apply pressure to break in two, like you would with a regular Gyproc® board. Recommended score and snap size is 15 cm.

AFFORDABLE AND ECOLOGICALLY RESPONSIBLE

100% recyclable
Non-toxic and non-hazardous
Habito® boards are the aordable solution because they can be installed fast without any extra work.

IMPORTANT

Always use No.10 Wooden screws to mount Habito® boards. Use a cordless electric screwdriver that operates at no more than 500 revs per minute. Maximum weight per one fixing point is 30 kg.

TIPS

Always use coarse thread screws with a diameter depending on the object.
The screw thread must always run all the way up to the head.
No special tools or plugs are needed to mount objects. Simply secure the screw in the board with a crosshead screwdriver.
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when mounting objects. For example, if a TV plus wall bracket weighs 20kg and the bracket should be fixed to the wall at four points, you must use four screws, even though the load-bearing capacity is 120kg.
When choosing the screw length, always take account of any piping or cables running behind the wall.
