Partitions in wet areas like Industrial kitchens, labs, washrooms and bathing areas
KalsiPartition is the ideal solution for the most demanding internal wall applications subject to high traffic or humid conditions.
KalsiPartition provides excellent acoustic insulation. The inclusion of mineral wool in the wall cavity improves both thermal and acoustic performance.
All kinds of conduit, wiring, pipe and other services are easily installed in the cavity of every KalsiPartition system.
