Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 39.7 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% during 2023-2028. The growing employment for building purposes, rising investment by governing agencies of various countries in renovating and remodeling public buildings, and increasing demand for energy-efficient construction solutions represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Rising Demand for Eco-Friendly Building Materials for Construction Purposes Augmenting Market Growth

At present, the increasing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly building materials to construct commercial and residential buildings around the world is propelling the growth of the gypsum board market. In addition, once the paper facer is removed from gypsum boards, the core, which is essentially only gypsum, can be easily recycled as an additive in concrete, plaster, and stucco. Apart from this, gypsum is manufactured from gyprock, which is a sustainable material and occurs naturally. Additionally, the rising construction of various green buildings and smart cities around the world to save energy and prevent over usage of natural resources is supporting the growth of the gypsum board market. Moreover, the installation of gypsum board does not require an extensive sum of money or labor costs, which is catalyzing the demand for gypsum boards across the globe. Furthermore, as gypsum boards are easy to repair, available in a wide array of designs, and extremely versatile in nature, their usage is increasing worldwide.

Competitive analysis such as market structure, market share by key players, player positioning, top winning strategies, competitive dashboard, and company evaluation quadrant has been covered in the report.

The volume of new entrants is moderate as firms require economies of scale to remain profitable. Furthermore, the production differentiation rate is low as the market consists of similar products with little differentiation between them.

What is a Gypsum Board?

Gypsum board is a lightweight construction material which is often called drywall, wallboard, and plasterboard, and can be directly attached to wood and metal framing. It comprises gypsum, which is a hydrous sulfate of calcium and is sandwiched between two layers of special paper. It can be directly attached to existing surfaces or walls of buildings with the help of strong adhesives, screws, and nails. It is manufactured by grinding and crushing gypsum into calcined or partially dehydrated gypsum and then mixing it with water and other additives to create a slurry which is poured between continuous layers of paper on a board-forming machine. It is commercially available as fire-resistant and water-resistant gypsum boards, which are primarily used in bathrooms, kitchens, and external soffits. It has a non-combustible core which makes it different from plywood, fireboard, and hardboard. It is extremely versatile and can complement the aesthetics of any interior design. It is used for making walls and partitions in various residential, commercial, and institutional structures, as it possesses fire-resistant properties and can prevent the occurrence of accidents. It is used for making false ceilings and cladding the exterior of residential and non-residential buildings. It is also employed in the construction of offices, recording studios, and classrooms, as fiber board contains sufficient mass to inhibit most low-frequency sound waves and has enough resiliency to inhibit sound waves of higher frequency. As it is convenient to use and is more durable in nature compared to traditional lath and plaster, the demand for gypsum board is rising across the globe.

Gypsum Board Market Trends:



At present, the increasing demand for gypsum boards due to the rising construction of various residential and commercial buildings around the world represents one of the key factors influencing the market positively.
