WE OPERATE SUSTAINABLY TODAY AND PLAN FOR THE FUTURE

In 1932, the brothers Alfons and Karl Knauf acquired the rights to extract gypsum from a deposit in the community of Schengen at the Obermosel River. The following year, the built their first plaster factory. This laid the foundation for the Knauf Company that is still owned by the same family.

Knauf still is a family operation. As such, we don’t chase after quick profits, but seek sustainability for generations to come. We also look at the long-term consequences of everything we do. We are committed to minimize our ecological, social and economic impact on the environment. This is one of our goals: To operate sustainably today and plan for the future.

 

„I like working at Knauf because it fits my needs perfectly. I find it fascinating that our company branches out from Iphofen to the rest of the world. My grandfather already worked at Knauf and I knew early on that I wanted to work here as well. The relaxed work atmosphere is a perfect fit for me.“
