Richmond has a comprehensive range of internal wall boards supplied by Fermacell and Cembrit Blunn and for the external, a full range of architectural terracotta façades by Terreal.
About Fermacell
Fermacell is a high performance, multi-purpose building board that when installed combines the properties of solid blockwork with the speed and flexibility of conventional drywall techniques, and which allows the designer to use radical solutions in internal space planning.
Fermacell is produced using ordinary materials in an extraordinary way. Raw gypsum, cellulose fibres derived from recycled paper, and water are combined to form an homogenous mass, which is then formed into a dense sheet material. Not only is the manufacturing technique unique but the process itself is fully recycling – all by products being fed back into the system, ensuring no waste is produced.
Fermacell possesses impressive properties, including high impact, fire and moisture resistance, much improved sound insulation compared with traditional wall and flooring materials. Fixings such as radiators, shelves and cupboards can be mounted directly due to the high density of the board and without the need for noggins. It has also the advantage of a totally dry fixing process and is ready to decorate. It can also be finished to provide a high quality plaster-like surface.
A number of accessories are available including fixing screws, joint filler, joint adhesive and the fine surface treatment for a smooth finish. A board knife and application spatulas for the fine surface treatment can also be supplied.

Fermacell Dry Lining
Fermacell wall boards are available in standard sizes as shown below:
Boards are fixed to steel or timber studwork to provide durable solutions for virtually every dry lining application.
Fermacell boarding can satisfy the Building regulations without expensive double boarding or special constructions.
The partitions share the same moisture resistance so that in many cases installation can commence before the building envelope is complete.
The inherent impact resistance and screwholding properties eliminate the need for underdrawing the boards with plywood in high traffic areas or where flexibility in wall fittings is required.
Fermacell is sized at manufacture to accept a wide variety of decorative finishes. Paints, wall coverings and tiles can all be applied directly to the surface of the board – normally without additional treatment.
If the wall is to be painted, a Fine Surface Treatment can be applied simply and without any plastering skills. This results in a finish that is smooth, resembles plaster skim and doesn’t crack.
