Saint-Gobain | Gyproc | Duro series Panel Air Conditioner
November 28, 2025

Saint-Gobain India – Gyproc is one of India’s leading manufacturers of gypsum boards, plasters, grid ceilings, metal framing, and interior construction solutions.
Their manufacturing plants run high-speed production lines which generate fine gypsum dust.
To maintain smooth production and precise quality control, they use multiple automation and electrical control panels.


The Challenge

1. Heavy Dust Causing Panel AC Failure

Gypsum manufacturing environments naturally produce fine and heavy dust.
Their existing panel air conditioners were not designed for such dusty surroundings.
As a result:

  • Dust clogged the AC filters

  • Airflow dropped drastically

  • Cooling performance reduced

  • Internal temperature started rising

  • Panels began tripping and malfunctioning

This was affecting machine stability and increasing maintenance downtime.

2. Need for a More Robust, Dust-Friendly AC

Since the plant operates continuously, they needed a panel AC that could:

  • Handle dusty environments

  • Maintain cooling without choking

  • Offer rugged performance

  • Require less frequent cleaning

  • Provide reliable temperature control

  • Fit directly as a replacement to existing ACs

They were looking for a more durable and industrial-grade solution.


Our Solution: Duro Series – Heavy-Duty Panel Air Conditioner

After understanding the root cause and site environmental conditions, Himalaya Refrigeration supplied the Duro Series Panel Air Conditioner, specially designed for harsh dusty industries.

Why Our Duro Series Was the Best Replacement

1. Designed for Dusty Environments

The Duro Series is built with:

  • Improved filtration

  • High static cooling system

  • Dust-resistant construction

This ensures smooth performance even in gypsum dust–filled areas.

2. Plug-and-Play Replacement

We matched the size and capacity, so the Duro AC easily replaced the old units without cabinet modification.

3. Strong Cooling, Stable Performance

Even with continuous dust exposure, the AC maintains:

  • Stable internal temperature

  • Smooth operation of electrical panels

  • Zero overheating issues

4. Built for Industrial Reliability

Our unit is designed for 24×7 operation in heavy industries like cement, gypsum, ceramics, and metal manufacturing.


Results After Installation

1. Perfect Cooling – No More AC Failure

The Duro Series ACs continue to run reliably without choking, even in dusty conditions.

2. Improved Panel Stability

Electrical panels now remain cool, reducing unwanted tripping and breakdowns.

3. Lower Maintenance

The sturdy design significantly reduces filter-cleaning frequency compared to previous ACs.

4. Smooth Production with Zero Interruptions

Stable cooling ensures uninterrupted production and machine operation.

5. Multiple Units Installed

Due to strong performance and high reliability, Saint-Gobain India – Gyproc installed multiple units of our Duro Series across their plant.


Conclusion

Himalaya Refrigeration delivered a durable, dust-resistant, and high-performance cooling solution for Saint-Gobain India – Gyproc.
Our Duro Series Panel Air Conditioners replaced their existing ACs and now operate flawlessly in their heavy-dust manufacturing environment.
This successful installation has strengthened our relationship, making us a reliable cooling partner for their critical process panels.
