High Quality Solutions for all Aspects of Construction
Modern construction must satisfy complex requirements. Key energy performance management must synergise with ventilation and illumination, as well as design. The increasing development of technology calls for integral planning processes and new forms of space creation. Accordingly, Knauf offers premium solutions in drywall plasterboard construction. As a reliable partner, the Knauf Group supports customers with well-founded know-how, and exceptional service – from local housing construction to superlative architecture worldwide.
Gypsum Drywall Construction
The production of plasters is closely linked to the inception of Knauf as a company with the initial production of gypsum-bound hand plasters in the early 1930’s. Since then, the drywall construction department has been continuously expanded and technologically developed to provide the most innovative plasterboard gypsum solutions that meet the highest legal safety and building requirements. Our products have been comprehensively tested to ensure high performance and can be combined with other building materials for a complete system.
The Innovation of Plasterboards
Continuing to innovate and drive the building materials and construction industry, we offer our customers a wide-ranging product catalogue that is not limited to gypsum. Our range also includes lime and cement-bound plasters for interior and exterior use, enabling diverse application possibilities at the highest technical level. We know that functionality and aesthetics go hand-in-hand and that is why we provide various design options that are visually appealing and sustainable.

Floors
Floors are one of the most heavily stressed components when it comes to the usage of buildings. Their planning and execution should therefore be carried out carefully and with the appropriate products. In addition, the floor structure significantly determines the quality of living. With modern and proven systems from the Knauf Group, even the most challenging requirements can be superiorly implemented. Our range of floor products includes all technologies, from classic flowing screeds to dry subfloors and area cavity floors. The systems are aligned with each other and meet the requirements of fire protection and sound insulation.
Facades
As a global company, we face the challenge of providing the right façade solution to customers in diverse climate zones and regions with different construction traditions and regulations. Through our international expansion and wide range of construction material technologies, the Knauf Group has developed a comprehensive perspective of these difficulties and solutions for different technical requirements. Our facade product portfolio ranges from warm wall systems, solutions for ventilated facades and exterior rendering to specialised insulation materials.
Moulded Parts / Injection Moulding
Knauf is also an excellent partner when it comes to EPS mouldings, injection moulding and thermoforming. Based in France, Knauf Industries develops and produces customised insulation materials and transport protection for customers in the construction and food industries, and for automotive companies and the pharmaceutical industry.
