Pre-Assembled Frames

Non-Loadbearing Infill System

Following the outstanding success of Thruwall® – EOS has taken factory prefabrication and preassembly to another level. Our custom-manufactured Pre-Assembled Frames (PAF) are an evolution of Thruwall® which are delivered to site as a unitised non-loadbearing infill system.

Pre-cut, prefabricated and preassembled offsite in controlled factory conditions, these non-loadbearing infill systems encapsulate EOS light steel framing and external Siniat Weather Defence boarding, ready for glass mineral wool insulation and Siniat internal wall linings to be fitted onsite. Installation from inside the structure reduces working at height, mast climber requirements and scaffolding costs. Delivering crucial cost and time benefits making programme savings of up to 30%, the PAF system offers 60-minute fire resistance and provides a 30-year product and performance Etex warranty.
