Jointing and Finishing

Jointing & Finishing materials produce a smooth, continuous,
crack-free lining surface ready for priming and final decoration. A
range of jointing products are available to suit the board type,
method of application, and site preference.
The jointing process normally has three application stages embedding the tape and bulk filling the joint, secondary filling and
finishing.
Jointing materials provide durable joint reinforcement and sealing
which is a pre-requisite if the building element is to achieve its
specified levels of fire resistance and sound insulation.

Plasters
Selecting the right material and methodology to finish internal wall

surfaces is the key towards achieving the best desired finish and
performance. Gypsum plaster is the solution of choice and an ideal
replacement of sand cement plaster and POP.
Performance Drivers of Gypsum Plaster
Direct Application: Single coat application directly on brick, block
and concrete walls
No Curing & Crack Free: No water curing needed, free of
shrinkage cracks
Light Weight: Density being less, weight of finished product is
much lighter
High Productivity: High coverage resulting in more work in less
time and low wastage
Fire Protection: Non-combustible, in accordance with BS 476:
Part 4: 1970
Low Thermal conductivity: Gypsum's inherent nature helps in
energy conservation
Thermal resistance: R = 0.07 mK/W at 13mm thickness

Commitment to quality and environment
The world of Gyproc is about providing innovative building solutions
to meet the demands of customers for sustainable performance
solutions. Being sustainable is at the core of Saint-Gobain Gyproc
Indias strategy and the entire product range fulfills Green Building
norms as laid down by CII IGBC (LEED rating).
Green Building
Green Building is a representative of sustainable building environments. This approach ensures health and comfort of the building
occupants through the use of sustainable building materials. The information below highlights the credentials of Saint-Gobain
Gyproc India's products & systems and its contribution to the Green Building rating system (LEED) as specified by the Indian Green
Building Council.

Indoor Environmental Quality: Low emitting materials

Low emitting materials
Gypsum based products are made from non toxic materials and all chemicals and binders used are natural and eco friendly. Being
relatively porous, gypsum based products allow buildings to breathe, thus contributing towards creating a healthy and productive
internal environment.
Water Efficiency: Dry construction (water free)

Low Construction
Gypsum plasterboard construction for walls is also called drywall construction, implying no water usage. So there is typically 100%
water conservation during the construction process compared to any masonry process.
Materials & Resources: Recycle content, Recyclable products, Regional materials

Recycle content
Gypsum plasterboards, gypsum plasters, ceiling panels and jointing compounds have a substantial degree of post consumer and
post industrial recycle content. Exact contents vary depending on the plants and products.
Recyclable products
Gypsum plasterboards, gypsum plasters, ceiling panels, metal sections and jointing compound are all technically 100% recyclable.
With four manufacturing facilities located close to the major construction hubs of the country, most cities in North, West & South
of India fall under the 800 kms maximum radius of transportation. The raw materials for manufacturing the various products are
also in most cases procured locally within a radius of 800 kms from both the manufacturing and project site thus optimizing the
negative environmental impact related to transportation
Jind (Haryana)
All the major north Indian cities (Delhi, Chandigarh, Jaipur, Indore, Bhopal, Lucknow, Kanpur) come under 800kms
Bengaluru
All the major south Indian cities (Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Cochin and Coimbatore) come under 800kms
Wada (Maharashrta)
All the major western cities of India (Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Ahmedabad, Baroda, Goa) come under 800 kms
