GFRG refers to Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum. These are panels used for mass scale construction of residential buildings on a mass scale. Compared to traditional buildings these buildings require less time.GFRG buildings are energy efficient with huge potential, These buildings have both load-bearing and non –load-bearing wall panels.GFRG Panels are harder, stronger, and hence used for the construction of a building of lower weight.GRG refers to Glass Reinforced Gypsum a combination of plaster, glass fiber strands, and metal /timber.
GFRG –Glass fibre reinforced gypsum
GFRG Building system or rapid wall is a modern building devised by an Australian firm. GFRG panel consists of calcined gypsum plaster reinforcement with glass fiber. This aggregate is filled with R.C (Reinforced Concrete to design a strong load-bearing structure.
GFRG panels can resist lateral loads and are weather resistant. Strong winds and earthquakes can be resisted by these panels. Apart from a walls rooftop, sunshade and boundary walls can be designed with GFRG Panel.
GFRG panels are white and have this base from the gypsum base. These panels are smooth and can be painted or color-washed and don’t need cement mortar for bonding. They are interlocking able and can be dismantled as per requirement.

GFRG Panel
Glass fibre reinforced panel (GFRG) are weather resistant .These panels are available in standard size and posses white colour .They are fire resistant and can be machined and cut as per requirement .These panels are hard and solid and have high strength to weight ratio.
GFRG panels manufacturing is done in semi –automatic plant using slurry got by heating calcined gypsum.The plaster is mixed with water , white cement ,retarder and water repellant chemicals to form slurry that is interspersed with glass fibres and subject to drying process to form hard panels .
GFRG Panels can be transported once these panels harden up , via trucks or trailers .Panels are put in vertical position with adequate support to avoid damages during transport.These panels are of standard size and thickness and hence can be assembled at site as per design .
Frequently Asked Question
1)What is GFRG building ?
GFRG refers to Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum .These are panel used for mass scale construction of residential building on mass scale. Low cost and added advantage in terms of usage for mass construction. Low cost housing requirements use GFRG technology. Quicker construction ,Fire resistance , Earth quake resistance , strength and durability are unique .
2)What are advantages of using GFRG Panels ?
GFRG panels are strong and rigid .They are manufactured at factories and transported to site .They are flame retardant , anti corrosive , anti bacterial and can be mechanically sized as per requirement .Thy help in fast construction and are economical compared to traditional construction.
3)What are features of GFRG Panels ?
GFRG panels help design light weight bearing wall .These are used as partition wall , horizontal slabs for flooring and vertical partition walls .They are used for roofing and in cladding structures .
4)How is construction done with GFRG Panels ?
GFRG Construction retain conventional method .Concrete belts are built at plinth level to support and strengthen the interlocking panels. GFRG panels are placed with mechanical means like crane .The hollow cavities are filled with concrete and reinforcement to strengthen the panels and finally water proofing is done .
5) What are Limitation of GFRG buildings ?
GFRG panels need special care for assembly and transportation. Abrasion to be avoided .Direct exposure to moisture and curved surfaces cannot adopt GFRG panels .
6)What are major advantage of GFRG Panel ?
GFRG Panel help to accelerate work .Low cost as compared to traditional process and mass production helps in covering larger area .Internal partition for commercial and industrial structures find advantage using GFRG technology .
