Healthcare Facilities For The Future
fermacell® fibre gypsum boards were specified as the internal walling solution for the major expansion of Royal Bournemouth Hospital, supporting the delivery of over 108,000m² of wall board across a complex, live healthcare environment.
fermacell® fibre gypsum boards were chosen for their ability to deliver multiple performance requirements in a single-board solution, reducing system complexity and installation time.
Through close collaboration with IHP, AT Jones, TGM, and IBI Group, fermecell® fibre gypsum boards helped deliver a robust, efficient and future-proof walling solution tailored to the needs of a modern healthcare facility.
The result is a high-performance internal environment that supports longevity, compliance, and patient comfort, demonstrating why fermacell® fibre gypsum boards are a trusted choice for healthcare construction.
fermacell® fibre gypsum boards come with strong impact-resistance performance, giving healthcare providers confidence that walls can withstand everyday knocks and bumps. 75mm stud partitions = severe duty and 2 kn crowd load.
Dead load hanging load capability of 150kg per linear metre without additional pattressing, allowing fixtures such as whiteboards, shelving, and lockers to be fixed directly. This greatly simplifies design and installation for healthcare interiors.
Can be installed quickly before the building envelope is closed and requires fewer supplementary materials, helping hospital projects meet tight construction or refurbishment timelines
fermacell™ systems have been rigorously tested for high‑performance applications, including use in tall, complex hospital structures. we provide single layer systems that can offer EI60 up to 15m high, achieve 54 dB Rw and have a dead load hanging load capability of 150kg per linear metre.
Carbon Storing
Using recycled materials and work seamlessly with timber construction, fermacell® fibre gypsum boards contribute positively to carbon‑efficient building strategies. Their long lifespan and durability further support sustainable outcomes by reducing maintenance and replacement cycles.
