“Solid Roots for Growth” was the title of the extraordinary night of 17th of Novemner 2022. The date which marked yet another historic day for the Drywall industry as the 3rd Saint-Gobain Gyproc Middle East Trophy ceremony took place at the famous Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah, the biggest drylining competition in the region. It was an extraordinary night where 200 people from more than 80 distribution and contracting companies from 7 countries came together to celebrate excellence, innovation, quality and most of all, our partnership and joint success in the drylining profession. This year 92 Projects from around the region, which used Gyproc systems and solutions, were nominated and judged by an independent jury for the award ranging from residential, healthcare, hospitality, to commercial, educational, and leisure projects. The winners from the regional stage of the competition will compete against 350 participants from 30 countries at the International Gypsum Trophy stage in Athens, Greece next year in April.
The fun-filled evening started with our innovation displays and our teams introduced different partition and ceiling systems including our external façade system that brings together expertise of our 3 brands Gyproc, Weber and Kimmco ISOVER to offer a solution with superior acoustic, thermal and fire performance.
The guests were then officially welcomed by Antoine GHAZAL – our CEO for Gulf Countries who introduced the Purpose, Vision and Strategy of Saint-Gobain and then introduced the Saint-Gobain Gyproc Trophy.
It was then time for results! Our jury gave out the awards to the top 3 projects in each category. The Winners to be revealed shortly.
We also had the pleasure and honour of having Hady Nassif – CEO EMME countries at the event who joined us and congratulated the winning projects and gave special recognition awards to our ditribution partners.
