Wall Systems

SUSTAINABLE ALTERNATIVE

Wall systems

To make it easier to use Recoma's materials, a number of wall systems have been tested for fire resistance and sound insulation.
In general, the wall systems containing Recoma boards are far superior in theese regards compared to wall systems using plywood.
This means you can get the same benefits with fewer layers of gypsum on top and save both money on material, time for installation, CO2 emissions and also get some extra floor space!

The green inner wall

Recoma has tested a wall system together with WoodTube with their paper studs and Ekolution with their hemp fiber insulation.
Both Recoma's boards, Ekolution's insulation and WoodTube's studs has superior properties regarding their climate impact.

Below you can see a comparison between the Green Wall and a standard wall.

We have two types of walls on display.
First we have a wall with the fire rating EI60 and the sound rating Rw44.
For the Green Wall only one layer of gypsum is needed, whereas the standard wall needs two layers of gypsum to reach the same ratings.

Second we have a wall with the fire rating EI120 and sound rating Rw48. The Green Wall needs two layers of gypsum while the standard wall needs three layers of gypsum to reach the same ratings.
