Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG) Panel is a building panel product, made of calcined gypsum, plaster, reinforced with glass fibers, for Mass-scale building construction, was originally developed and used since 1990 in Australia. The panel, manufactured to a thickness of 124mm under carefully controlled conditions to a length of 12 m and height of 3m, contains cavities that may be unfilled, partially filled or fully filled with reinforced concrete as per structural requirement. Experimental studies and research in Australia, China and India have shown that GFRG panels, suitably filled with plain reinforced concrete possesses substantial strength to act not only as load bearing elements but also as shear wall, capable of resisting lateral loads due to earthquake and wind. GFRG panel can also be used advantageously as in-fills (nonload bearing) in combination with RCC framed columns and beams (conventional framed construction of multi-storey building) without any restriction on number of stories micro-beams and RCC screed (acting on T-beam) can be used as floor/ roof slab.
GFRG panel possesses high flexural strength, shearing strength, compressive strength, and flexibility. It has a very high level of resistance to fire, water, heat, corrosion, rot, and termites. Concrete filled with vertical reinforcement rods improves it’s vertical and lateral load capacities. GFRG made buildings are resistant to fire, earthquakes, and cyclones.

1. Wall Panels: GFRG panels are used as interior wall panels in commercial and residential buildings. They provide a smooth and seamless surface that can be painted or textured.
2. Ceiling Panels: GFRG panels are used as ceiling tiles in commercial buildings. They are lightweight, easy to install and can be customized to fit any design.
3. Columns and Capitals: GFRG is used to create decorative columns and capitals that mimic the look of traditional stone or plaster. These elements add a touch of elegance to any building.
4. Moldings and Cornices: GFRG is used to create intricate moldings and cornices that are often used in high-end residential and commercial buildings.
5. Fire-Rated Walls: GFRG board is used in the construction of fire-rated walls. It has a high resistance to fire and is able to contain flames and smoke.
6. Partition Walls: GFRG panels are used as partition walls in commercial buildings. They are easy to install and can be customized to fit any space.
