Our Commitment

Responsible Manufacturing at Every Stage

Inspired by Oman’s rich natural gypsum resources, we are committed to responsible resource management across our operations at Sohar — and to protecting the environment and the people who work with us.

Sustainability also lives in the products themselves. Because our wall and machine-application plasters need no water curing, every project applies them without the water a traditional cement-sand system consumes.

  • Responsible use of natural gypsum from Oman’s own reserves
  • No water curing required — reducing water consumption on every project
  • High-coverage formulations of up to 90 m² per tonne, reducing material use
  • Thermal resistance that contributes to building energy efficiency
  • A safe workplace and compliance with environmental standards
  • Continuous improvement in energy efficiency across production

Three Pillars of
Sustainable Action

Responsible Resource Management

We optimise the use of natural gypsum drawn from Oman’s own reserves, manufacturing efficiently to reduce waste at every stage of production.

Health, Safety and Environment

The safety and well-being of our employees, customers and communities are our highest priorities. We maintain a safe workplace and comply with environmental standards.

Sustainable Construction

We develop high-performance materials that support sustainable construction — cutting water use on site and contributing to building energy efficiency.

FAQ

Our wall and machine-application plasters require no water curing, so projects avoid the water a traditional cement-sand system consumes.

From Oman’s own natural gypsum reserves. We optimise the use of those resources and manufacture efficiently to reduce waste at every stage.

Our gypsum plasters offer thermal resistance, which contributes to the thermal performance of the finished building.

Gyraffe Gypsum Wall Plaster offers coverage of up to 90 m² per tonne, which reduces the material required for a given area.
