High and Dry

Humidity Resistance

Ceiling installations are facing the demands of ever more humid conditions.

Damp spaces ranging from buildings with intermittent heating and cooling to areas with a high concentration of people, and structures that are semi-open to the exterior environment. 

Specialist Areas

Most indoor conditions for normal occupancy are designed to be in the range of 15 to 29°C and 40 to 70% RH (Humidity Resistance).


However, modern building techniques and specialist areas within buildings mean that conditions can sometimes exceed these levels. 

Extreme Conditions

To meet every requirement, Knauf Ceiling Solutions offers a wide variety of standard products, suitable for installation in conditions of up to 95% relative humidity, as well as specialist products that excel in extreme conditions of up to 100% relative humidity
