This section is a collection of case studies of projects completed using Gyproc solutions.
Classic Grande is North East India’s largest and first ever 4 star hotel in Manipur with 171 rooms. The project required to be constructed using light materials and to be completed within stringent timelines.
The Crowne Plaza in Kochi is a 270 room hotel, operated by the IHG group and owned by the KGA Group. The key requirement of the project was for a system which delivered high performance in terms of fire resistance and good sound insulation.
NCR Corporation is a manufacturer of ATM machines. Their new facility at the Mahindra World City needed to be tested/certified for 1-hour fire resistant with a height of 7meters.
The Palladium hotel in Mumbai is located in Lower Parel, the hub of central Mumbai. The Palladium is a 43 storey high hotel, built along with a 4 storey mall complex and a lobby area starting from the 9th floor. The project, being a high rise structure, required a lightweight construction that would aid in structural load reduction. It also required good sound insulation and fire resistance in line with the stringent performance requirements of 5 star hotels.
J W Marriot- a 5-star luxury hotel chain, wanted to erect a massive structure with 585 rooms, adjacent to the Mumbai International airport. The project demanded international standard acoustic comfort, fire safety for occupants and needed to be completed on a stringent timeline.
Asian Heart Institute is one of India's premier cardiac care institutes located in the Bandra-Kurla complex, Mumbai. The project involved construction of 2 additional floors on top of a 5 storey building while the hospital was running at full capacity during the construction phase. The project had the restriction of an existing dead load and thus required a lightweight system for its internal partitions.
J.W. Marriott is a 5 star luxury hotel with 550 rooms located just outside the T3 airport terminal in New Delhi. The key requirement for this project was a system which would help in constructing the project faster, with walls that delivered high performance in terms of acoustics and fire rating.
Mega Mexican theatre chain Cinepolis wanted to open its first megaplex of 15 screens in Pune. Since it had a demising wall, acoustic performance was on top of the priority list. Apart from that, lightweight materials & swift completion of the project were the other key requirements.
Greaves cotton is a manufacturer and supplier of agricultural and industrial equipments and machines. A typical manufacturing setup like Greaves Cotton Ltd. required a robust interior construction technology that could guard against heavy movement of material in and around shop floor, wear and tear caused by forklifts and large soft body impact (human movement).
Bosch, a leading supplier of technology and services, was setting up its 5th manufacturing facility in Bidadi. The project required construction of partitions over height of 6 meter, while maintaining thickness of 150mm. The plan for the shopfloor required performance solutions for moisture resistance. Specific areas also required high material movement hence, performance solutions for impact resistance were important.
