GypWall Single Frame Enhanced
GypWall Single Frame Enhanced is a high‑performance internal partition system based on a single layer of Gypframe metal studs, engineered to deliver improved levels of acoustic insulation, fire resistance, and impact robustness compared with the standard single‑frame arrangement. It offers a dependable upgrade for projects that require stronger performance without moving to a twin‑frame solution. This system is widely used across commercial, educational, healthcare, and residential buildings where enhanced durability and comfort are essential.
Key Features
- Enhanced acoustic performance, achieved through upgraded board linings and cavity insulation
- Improved fire resistance, with configurations capable of achieving up to 120 minutes
- Higher impact resistance, suitable for corridors, circulation spaces, and high‑traffic areas
- Single metal stud framework, keeping installation straightforward and efficient
- Compatible with Gyproc DuraLine, Gyproc FireLine, and other performance boards
- Fully covered by the SpecSure® lifetime warranty when installed to specification
Typical Construction
- A GypWall Single Frame Enhanced partition typically includes:
- Gypframe studs and tracks forming a single metal frame
- Two layers of high‑performance plasterboard each side, often including Gyproc DuraLine for impact resistance or Gyproc FireLine for fire performance
- Acoustic mineral wool (such as Isover APR) within the cavity to boost sound insulation
- Thistle MultiFinish skim for a smooth, durable surface
This upgraded build‑up provides a stronger, more resilient wall while maintaining a relatively slim overall thickness.
Where It’s Used
- Schools and universities, where walls must withstand frequent impact
- Hospitals and healthcare buildings, requiring robust, hygienic partitions
- Commercial offices, especially around meeting rooms or busy circulation routes
- Residential developments, where improved acoustic comfort is desirable
- Public buildings, where durability and compliance are essential
