Knauf India has launched its innovative GIFAfloor Systems, a range of high-performance, gypsum-based flooring designed to meet the evolving demands of modern infrastructure. This advanced flooring solution features high-density, non-combustible gypsum fiber core panels primed on both sides, ensuring quick, dry, and dust-free installation. Unlike traditional wet construction methods, GIFAfloor eliminates the need for cement or water, making it an eco-friendly choice that saves time while reducing on-site disruptions.
The system accommodates diverse top finishes, including tiles, vinyl, wood, and carpet, providing unmatched flexibility for architects, designers, and builders. GIFAfloor Systems are designed for modern buildings, offering a fast, dry, and sustainable flooring option. Sumit Bidani, CEO of Knauf India, said, “Our new GIFAfloor range reflects Knaufโs drive to blend innovation with practicality. Each variant addresses a specific infrastructure need while delivering on durability, flexibility, and environmental responsibility, all backed by trusted Knauf quality.”
The GIFAfloor range includes two key systems: GIFA Floor DB Green โ Raised Access Floor Systems and GIFAfloor FHB โ Hollow Floor System. The GIFA Floor DB Green system is a ready-to-install, monolithic panel that can support up to 4 kN of weight and offers up to 60 minutes of fire resistance, making it suitable for modern office buildings, data centers, and other commercial spaces with heavy foot traffic. The GIFAfloor FHB system, on the other hand, features interlocking panels that can handle loads up to 20 kN and provide up to 90 minutes of fire resistance. With acoustic insulation up to 34 dB, this system is ideal for noise-sensitive areas like hospitals and schools.
These systems have been trusted by landmark projects such as Tour Alto in Paris, The Louvre in Abu Dhabi, and Frankfurt Airport Terminal 3, highlighting their reliability and global acceptance. The GIFAfloor range is suitable for commercial spaces, data centers, hospitals, schools, and high-performance buildings, where strength, acoustic insulation, and fire resistance are critical. By introducing GIFAfloor Systems to India, Knauf reaffirms its commitment to delivering world-class solutions that balance innovation, quality, and sustainability, setting a new standard in the flooring industry.
