From a family companyto a family of companies
The company established in 1932 in Perl an der Mosel in Saarland by the brothers Dr. Alfons Knauf and Karl Knauf, Gebr. Knauf Rheinische Gipsindustrie was the nucleus of the Knauf Group which operates worldwide today.
The company philosophy
The Knauf philosophy stems from the model on which the company is based: we are a family company. The family includes our employees …
... and our customers and consumers. Our strength comes from the earth. So ecology and economy are inseparable as far as we are concerned. And we demonstrate this. We act on it.Our focus is on our customers. They are the meaning and purpose of our thoughts and actions. It is us who make the market. We plan innovations to meet tomorrow's requirements. We are the market leaders. This implies an obligation to assume responsibility for the public and the environment. The high quality of our products enhances and creates an atmosphere of well-being for people.
We are as good as the sum total of our employees. We depend on your skills, efficiency and creativity. We fulfil our future dreams with our profits. The prerequisite for this is successful and contented customers. State of the art production techniques are characteristic of our operations. Our production plants are pleasant to work in, efficient and ensure a conscientious approach to resources and the environment.
We produce modular systems. These simplify planning and construction, offering complete solutions and assured quality.
