Lightweight Building Solutions for Health Care -
Fire Protection
Boral offers a wide range of fire rated lightweight building solutions that satisfy Building Code of Australia (BCA) requirements for fire protection within Hospitals and other Class 9a buildings.
Acoustics
Acoustic considerations for hospital environments include sound isolation for privacy or comfort enhancement as well as sound absorption in noisy areas.
Impact Resistance
Hospital corridors are particularly susceptible to knocks by trolleys and general traffic and therefore require the use of impact resistant lining materials.
USG Wall lining
Powerscape Fiberock® is an alternative impact resistant wall lining for high traffic areas. It has the impact toughness of masonry, combined with the design and installation convenience of plasterboard.
Infection Control
Boral plasterboard walls and ceilings have a smooth seamless surface finish critical to effective infection control. Boral also distributes the Bioguard range of Armstrong mineral fibre ceiling tiles.
Wet Areas
Boral's Wet Area Plasterboard and associated Wet Area System provide a cost effective solution that complies with the Building Code of Australia.
