The Knauf Metal Facade System was developed to provide an attractive express joint system for 9mm CFC boards.
Featuring a recessed Knauf 120mm Top Hat which allows for the ideal compression of an EPDM Closed Cell adhesive sealing tape and a patented Backing Strip, the system has been CSIRO tested with various configurations and plasterboard types.
Other Knauf Top Hat profiles with 75mm and 50mm faces are combined to provide a more traditional façade where the board joints are set and the façade either painted or rendered.
Knauf Standard Top Hat profiles have a 35mm depth however Knauf can custom roll Top Hat profiles within a range of sizes.
The Knauf Express Joint Façade System utilises four Knauf Metal products which are used with a 9mm CFC sheet and appropriate sealant.
AFSTH120-115 Knauf Metal Façade Top Hat 120 has a recessed channel to accommodate the EPDM gasket.

Internal steel stud walls are used in commercial and high-rise applications such as office buildings and apartment blocks. They are light weight, quick to install, and the components are easy to deliver on site.
External steel framed plasterboard walls protect the inside from weather, noise and when applicable, fire. They must also comply with local energy efficiency provisions.
Secure and simple to install, MultiStud’s assembly with MultiTrack produces jambs, headers and sills for door and window openings. MultiStud’s assembly with MultiTrack produces a heavy duty jamb, header and sill which replaces conventional built-up sections made of standard stud and tracks. The friction fit assembly saves time and money by eliminating the need for […]

The selection of a particular acoustic wall system is usually determined by BCA (Building Code of Australia) requirements and the required Rw rating. While any given stud and board combination will have an Rw rating, products selected for acoustic walls are typically selected based on the acoustic performance of the entire system once Fire Rating has been allowed […]
Knauf Furring Channel comes in a variety of sizes, it is high quality and easy to use.

These systems use clips and hangers in order to suspend a grid of Knauf Furring Channel and Knauf Top Cross Rails below a supporting structure which can then be sheeted with many types and multiple layers of Knauf plasterboard or acoustic ceiling lining. This allows the designer to bring the ceiling level down to the […]
There are a variety of systems that can be fixed directly to a supporting structure, which can then be sheeted with many types and multiple layers of board.
These systems are designed using stud and track horizontally, which are fixed to supporting walls on either side. Typically used in corridors, bathrooms, kitchens and fire tunnels a spanning system can overcome a lack of supporting structure above by providing a ceiling joist to which Knauf plasterboard or other lining materials can then be fixed. […]

BlogReverberation time In a closed space, sound gets reflected many times from hard and smooth surfaces and creates a reverberation. In other words, the sound persists long after its source ceased generating it. Sounds reflected from multiple surfaces also add up to increase the noise (decibel) level in the room. In an enclosed space, for […]
