Material composition
Armourcoat Sculptural® wall panels are
made from a high strength fibre reinforced
gypsum plaster combined with an inert
mineral filler. The filler, a post-consumer
recycled material, constitutes up to 30%
(depending on design) of the panel’s
composition. The panels are non-toxic,
and contain no VOCs or formaldehyde.
Panel dimensions and weight
The panel dimensions vary depending
upon the design but most designs are
either 1800mm x 600mm or 1200mm
x 800mm. The overall thickness of the
panels may vary from 14mm – 25mm
depending upon the depth of the
sculpting to the surface. The panels
vary in weight depending upon the
actual design and the weight of the
panels will vary from 14 – 20kg /m2.
Fire resistance
Armourcoat Sculptural® panels are entirely
non-combustible and rated as Class ‘O’
for flame and smoke development when
tested to BS476 part 6 & 7.
Installation
Armourcoat Sculptural® walls must be
installed by trained and accredited
Armourcoat agents. Armourcoat has a
network of agents working around the
world. For locations where there is no local
agent, we can provide specialist trainers
to work with local contractors to install
Armourcoat Sculptural® walls.
Suitable substrates
Armourcoat Sculptural® panels are noncombustible,
however the substrate to
which the panels are to be applied must
be constructed in accordance with the
minimum fire ratings that are required for
the project.
In order to achieve an accurate installation
that will not crack over time it is necessary
to have a substrate that can be screwed or
fixed directly into, but that is inherently
stable and unaffected by changes in
temperature or humidity. We recommend
that the substrate is constructed from one
layer of 12mm plywood followed by a layer
of 12.5mm foil backed plasterboard. The
foil backed plasterboard ensures that the
T e c h n i c a l
moisture for the bonding adhesive does
not permeate into the plywood and
cause it to expand or move. If foil backed
plasterboard is unavailable, apply an oil
based primer to the plywood at least 24
hours prior to fixing the plasterboard.
Other suitable substrates include two
layers of Hardie Villaboard, Blueclad board,
or one layer of Versapanel by Euroform
followed by one layer of plasterboard.
Armourcoat Sculptural® panels can
be installed onto a double layer of
plasterboard but it is necessary to insert
self tapping aluminum drywall plugs into
the wall for each and every screw. This
process is time consuming and as a result
the installation time and cost will be higher.
