It effectively and significantly reduces the amount of lead needed within X-ray shielding partitions, in many cases removing the need for lead altogether.

Knauf Safeboard brings X-ray protection together with f ire and acoustic performance in one easy-to-install board.

Knauf Safeboard is simple to install as it can be scored and snapped like a standard plasterboard.

Knauf Safeboard Joint Filler is used to fill joints to complete the radiation shield.
