The KNAUF Group’s success came to life in 1932 from the vision of two brothers, Karl and Alfons KNAUF. These young mining engineers decided at that time to take up their first industrial challenge, founding Gebrüder KNAUF together. Specialised in gypsum extraction and processing, the business soon started producing construction materials intended for interiors, plastering and moulded plaster ceiling tiles.
In 1958, the company is starting producing plasterboard industrially. Innovation and growth gathered pace. To increasingly high-performance construction products and processes were added new products, particularly in the fields of insulation, packaging and plastics.
Since then, the KNAUF Group has succeeded in forging a reputation for excellence worldwide. Its exceptional industrial success is consolidated by the human and social principles of a business that has always drawn strength from its family values.
