Precision Off-Site Manufacturing in Sohar
Rapidwall is a precast gypsum based walling panel produced by Horizons Industrial Development Company (HIDC). Manufacturing takes place off-site in our dedicated Rapidwall production unit, strategically located in the Sohar Industrial Area Phase III, Sultanate of Oman.
The Rapidwall System streamlines the construction process by transferring the majority of on-site work to the factory. Here, large single-spanning walls, roofs, and ceilings are produced with high precision. These components are then easily erected on-site in a matter of hours rather than weeks, significantly accelerating project timelines.
Panel Technology & Materials
Advanced Panel Technology
Rapidwall panels are lightweight modular building components produced by moulding fiberglass reinforced gypsum (GFRG). Their reduced weight is achieved through the use of high-quality plaster and intelligently designed void spaces (chambers) between the two skins.
Versatile & Sustainable
A basic panel is manufactured commonly in the size 12 x 3 m (36 m2) on a casting table, which is the production unit for Rapidwall, and in a large enough size to form an entire wall of a building structure. It is cut easily either at the factory or site and can be tailored to a great variety of designs, including window and door requirements.
Sohar Plant: Operational Excellence & Capacity
HIDC has been operating, testing, and perfecting the Sohar plant for Rapidwall manufacturing since 2009. Our facility is engineered for high-volume, consistent quality production.
