Lock out moisture misfortune
23 Mar 2014, Industry Updates, Product Focus
Bathroom steam and moisture can damage the lining and framing of walls and ceilings and, if the problem isn’t fixed, it can be bad both for the homeowners’ health and costly to repair.
GIB recommends using its water-resistant Aqualine® range – which just expanded to cater for the growing trend of bathrooms with stud heights above 2.4m – to protect your customers and their investment.
“New 1350mm wide GIB Aqualine® (TE/SE in 3.6m length only) is ideal for horizontal fixing on 2.7m studs, meaning fewer joints and a better wall finish,” reports GIB.
“Like the existing GIB Aqualine® range, the new addition, with its water-resistant core, reduces the amount of moisture normally absorbed by the lining, preventing it from passing through to the underlying framing and causing serious damage.”

The water-resistant core also provides a good base for paint, tile and wallpaper finishes.
