Speedpanel: Fire & Acoustic Rated Wall Systems

Fire and Acoustic Rated Wall Systems

Speedpanel is an innovative panel-based system for providing non-load-bearing fire and acoustic rated walls.

Quick to install, user-friendly on site and highly versatile, it has helped many architects, developers and construction professionals in Australia and New Zealand achieve success in a variety of applications.

Panels are made from roll-formed galvanised steel shells filled with lightweight aerated concrete. Interestingly, the steel and concrete are not bonded together. This allows the characteristics of the steel and concrete to compliment each other without the impedance, especially when exposed to fire conditions.

Fire rating of 4 hours integrity / 2 hours thermally for a three metre high wall*.
Acoustic systems ranging from Rw37 to Rw80.
Quick installation and erection based on a simple modular system.
Minimal footprint and lightweight, allowing flexible applications to various situations.
All systems are backed by appropriate tests which comply with relevant Australian Standards.

Speedpanel was introduced to the Australian market early in 2000 and has grown steadily in the marketplace, with many key building companies now recognizing the benefits of Speedpanel and using it for selected building projects. Speedpanel has a manufacturing facility located in Kilsyth (Victoria), a manufacturing facility under license in New Zealand and recently a new license taken up in the UK.

Reduces Installation Time

Easy to erect, Speedpanel allows no fuss and mess on site and can be installed either horizontally or vertically, using 'C' track as a frame fixed to structural elements.

Its uniquely simple, interlocking ‘tongue and groove’ design reduces installation time, generating cost savings to projects. Each panel neatly interfaces with two others; the profile interlocks together without requiring adhesives between individual panels.

This unique design produces Speedpanel’s exceptional functionality as a fire barrier, boasting outstanding structural integrity under test conditions, whilst providing premium acoustic attenuation and unsurpassed electromagnetic frequency shielding.
