Working closely with architects and consultants, we have developed high performance, durable partition and wall systems that control noise ensuring privacy whilst promoting effective employee communication; that allow interiors to be easily reconfigured as business needs change; and that ensure a perfect office environment – even down to ensuring clean and healthy indoor air.
With populations growing and regions developing, the demand for cinemas is on the increase and they need to meet ever changing technology and diversity. When multi -screen cinemas arrived, it was Gyproc that international cinema designers approached to develop the high performance separating wall structures needed. And we've worked alongside them ever since to develop improved solutions as sound systems become more powerful and sophisticated.
Today’s families expect more from their homes – with safety, comfort and economy all high on their ‘must have’ list. Families today expect more from their homes than ever before. Thermal and acoustic comfort, fire safety, durability and economy are all key requirements – along with reassurance that our homes do not damage the world for our children and grandchildren. With over 100 years of experience in creating interiors that have kept generations of families secure and comfortable, Saint-Gobain is today the world leader in sustainable habitats.
Schools today need to be flexible to meet changing education techniques, whilst providing an environment that supports academic excellence. Meeting the future talent and enterprise goals of a fast growing Middle East demands world-class schools that lay the foundation for academic excellence. Schools should be places of safety where students can hear and be heard; where they can concentrate, protected from distraction by other school activities; and that are adaptable to changing education needs.
We need to deliver more world-class hospitals to ever higher standards – faster and more efficiently than ever before. A rapidly growing healthcare sector demands hospitals that meet world-class design and performance standards, and can be delivered quickly and efficiently, Protecting and supporting vulnerable patients requires a unique internal environment that is fire-safe, acoustically efficient to minimise noise disturbance from talking, visitor traffic and equipment and which will resist knocks from trolleys, beds and other day-to-day hospital traffic.
