Drywall "Volma" is a universal building material with cardboard cladding, manufactured by the Volgograd plant. It is used to equip rooms with an average level of humidity, to form decorative elements of any shape, align wall structures, create false ceilings and partitions for zoning rooms. Due to the distinctive characteristics, the formation of crossbars and columns is possible, as well as their decoration.
Description
Drywall “Volma” has a small mass, which ensures the ease of manufactured structures. The interior partitions formed from it need not be strengthened. The exception is cases when there is a need to fix massive furniture structures on them. In decoration, such a material opens up vast opportunities for the implementation of design ideas, as its surface provides easy fastening of ceramic tiles, wallpaper and high-quality distribution of plaster and paint compositions.
Moisture-resistant drywall “Volma” is based on the use of fiberglass and has a different mass, depending on its type. Moreover, the width is always unchanged at 1200 mm. The assortment range contains, in addition to waterproof sheets, also refractory options and materials with other characteristics.
Benefits of using
Cardboard is used only for facing the front sides, since the end edges are rectangular and require a bevel cut to connect the elements. Proper chamfering at a certain angle ensures installation with inconspicuous quality joints. Existing joints in the structure are processed with putty.
Drywall “Volma” is characterized by the ability to create the optimal microclimate in the rooms due to the porous structure of the base. With a high level of humidity, the material absorbs surplus, and when it decreases, it gives back. Among other characteristics, fire protection is worth mentioning. Destruction of structures occurs only after a few hours from the onset of ignition, while there is no emission of harmful substances that have a toxic effect.
Features
Material production is carried out in accordance with GOST regulations. Drywall “Volma”, the photo of which is presented above, has all the required certificates, including radiation and hygiene. This allows you to have no doubt about the high quality of the product and its safety for people when used in office and residential premises.
Moisture-resistant hard putty and a construction bandage are used to process the joints between the elements. After completion of construction work, ceramic tiles are laid or painted . For rooms such as bathrooms and bathrooms, it is necessary to choose suitable moisture-resistant materials.
Fasteners
To create drywall constructions, one cannot do without self-tapping screws for a steel or wooden profile that attach the sheets. It is worth noting the need for processing wood profiles with special compounds. The formed structure can change its shape and begin to warp when fixing the sheets on a wood frame with high humidity. In order to prevent this, Volma drywall is glued to the wall with mounting adhesives. The best option for such a installation is Volma glue on a gypsum basis, which produces maximum adhesion to the wall surface and sheets.
Thanks to the use of such material during repairs, the desired appearance of the premises is obtained, which does not differ from the original design, and a significant reduction in time for facing work.
Mounting
Drywall “Volma”, the characteristics of which are characterized by a limited level of water absorption (within 5%), is fixed on special profiles and is the best option for finishing saunas, baths and bathrooms. The frame can be made of wooden and metal elements, and in the first case, the application of antiseptic drugs is necessary. Work in damp rooms requires the treatment of walls with waterproofing agents, paint or primer, which are used for the installation of drywall. Means for waterproofing are distributed in two layers, and if the wall has a porous structure, an additional layer is needed. It is worth noting that, despite the possibility of using the material in rooms characterized by a high level of humidity, it is still desirable to use another option.
The reviews on Volma drywall are mostly positive, most buyers note the easy cutting of the material with a hacksaw and the convenience of applying putty compounds. At the same time, the dimensions of the product do not always allow it to be transported on an ordinary elevator.
