- Effective for inner apartment AAC walls;
- Effective at minimum thickness;
- Not suitable for floor slabs.
Product information:
| Work size of panels (excluding ridge area): | 1200 х 600 mm (47 x 24 in) |
| Sandwich panel thickness: | 25 mm (1 in) |
| Panel weight: | 19,5 kg (43 lbs.) |
| Surface density of the system: | 36,5 kg/m2 (8 lb.ft2) |
The system is only 37.5 mm (1.5 inches) thick!
The ZIPS Slim system is an ultra–thin solution designed for residential premises where it is important to preserve usable space, visual volume of the room as much as possible, and significantly improve sound insulation capacity of inner walls.
Hybrid Combination of Vibroacoustic Materials:
ZIPS Slim Ultra system uses unique VIBROFIX fastening joints to effectively absorb sound waves.
The combination of guide sleeve and vibroacoustic sealant provides a consistently high level of vibration isolation, additional strength, and the assembly protection against damage during installation. Also, it prevents occurrence of a rigid connection between fasteners and gypsum plasterboard when the fastener is screwed at an angle.
Elastic properties:
Additional airborne sound insulation index of the ZIPS Slim panel system: △Rw up to 11 dB
