The 78mm Speedpanel is the original and most versatile of our product range.
Achieving an FRL of -/120/120 this highly versatile system can be used in a variety of applications across multiple building sectors. The lightweight, easy-to-handle system adds significant value to a building project by improving program speed and removing unnecessary costs associated with structural elements due to its ability to span large distances.
Common applications within high-rise buildings include shafts and risers, fire-rated escape stairs, and carpark and plantroom walls. For industrial projects, Speedpanel 78mm may be used for factory separations and boundary walls.
The 78mm panel is manufactured and supplied in full packs of 14 panels.
14 panels are supplied per pack for our 78mm panel.
