“GFRG” - Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum Precast Technology

Waste stream to Housing

Ozwall precast panels are created from a unique technology which delivers significant cost and time efficiencies on small to large developments. Fabricated off-site, the load-bearing walls are 85% lighter than conventional precast panels and can speed construction times by up to 40%.

The Ozwall Process
Ozwall combines the fast-setting properties of gypsum plaster with an extremely efficient vertical casting system. A series of air operated expanding plugs is used to form light weight, hollow, pre-finished walls.
The addition of glass fibre to the plaster mixture imparts integrity and increase the load bearing properties to the walls.
A wall is typically produced every 45 minutes

Walls
Hollow walls up to 3.4 metres high by 12 metres long are produced in thicknesses from 125mm to 150mm.
Twelve (12) metre walls are cut using a computer controlled saw to maximise off-site fabrication. Doors and windows are also pre-cut to further eliminate site labour and speed construction.
The site addition of concrete to the hollow Ozwall creates full structural load bearing walls up to twelve (12) storeys high.

Green Technology
The use of “Phospho” or “Flue Gas” gypsum creates a genuine process of turning waste into housing.
