Habito - Easy to Fix
Screw it! Fix it! Ready to use!
The strong surface of our Habito enables you to fi x shelves, curtain poles and TV, without the need for drills or specialist fi xings. You can simply screw directly into the wall surface, making DIY easy and giving you more freedom to have your home just the way you want it.
Habito is a radically diff erent plasterboard. Habito allows you to fi x up to 15kg directly to your wall using only a standard wood screw. It is also extremely durable and damage resistant compared to standard walls..
A no. 10 woodscrew (5x50 mm) will provide a safe working load (SWL) of up to 15 kg per fixing.
We recommend that you follow the manufacturer?s guidance as to the number of fixtures required to mount a fi xture. Example: If a TV weighs 15kg with its bracket and the bracket accepts four fi xings, you should use four screws, even though this provides 60kg safe working load.
