Gypsum Solutions for Healthcare

Thoughtful Design That Welcomes Wellbeing

Hospitals, clinics and laboratories ask more of their walls and ceilings than almost any other building — resisting infection, containing fire, withstanding constant impact, and protecting patient privacy, all while a facility that never closes stays open. Knauf gypsum systems give specifiers, consultants and contractors a tested, certified toolkit to deliver care environments that perform without feeling clinical.

Hygiene & radiation control

Radiation protection and Hygiene is fundamental to healthcare interiors. Knauf systems can be specified with Safeboard, our lead-free, high density gypsum board with a specialized Barium Sulfate core designed to attenuate radiation without the use of heavy metals.

Acoustic comfort & patient privacy

Rest and confidentiality are part of care. Knauf partition and lining systems are tested for sound insulation (STC) to separate patient rooms, consultation and treatment areas, while acoustic gypsum ceilings reduce reverberation in wards and waiting areas to aid speech intelligibility and a calmer environment

Moisture resistance for wet & clinical areas

Sluice rooms, bathrooms, hydrotherapy and wet clinical areas face constant moisture, intensified by the GCC climate. Knauf Aquapanel cement board and moisture-resistant systems perform where standard board would deteriorate, protecting hygiene and finish over time.

Fire and life-safety compliance

Healthcare buildings are high-dependency occupancies where compartmentation protects patients who can't easily evacuate. Knauf fire-rated partitions, shaftwall systems and ceiling membranes carry ASTM fire-resistance ratings and UAE Civil Defence certification in line with the UAE Fire and Life Safety Code of Practice, supporting authority approval for wards, corridors, theatres and risers.

Impact resistance for high-traffic areas

Corridors, emergency departments and service routes take constant knocks from trolleys, beds and equipment. Knauf impact-resistant board systems protect wall surfaces in these high-traffic zones, reducing damage, maintenance and downtime over the life of the facility.
