Where not to use it
The limits are as much a part of the specification as the performance. Everything here is stated on the manufacturer's data sheet.
- An interior ceiling and wall system.
- Without the high-NRC backer board there is no published type A absorption figure — specify the backer where type A mounting is required.
- Absorption is materially lower than the 20 mm system unless the high-NRC backer is used.
- Colorant has a one year shelf life; the boards, plasters and scrim have three.
