The fiber cement siding market was valued at US$ 3,963.50 million in 2021 and is projected to reach US$ 6,229.51 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2021 to 2028.
The fiber cement sidings provide multiple opportunities to builders, contractors, and homeowners in terms of attracting customers, generating revenues, and helping in expanding their business globally. Fiber cement siding offers a better exterior look of the house at an affordable price rate as compared with its alternatives and is also fire and heat resistant. Fiber cement has a flame spread rating of 0, which is similar to a brick. Also, the fiber cement siding is extremely weather resistant and can easily bear extreme heat and humid conditions. These benefits are attracting a number of builders or contractors as well as individual customers, which is increasing the sales of the product across regions. This is thereby catalyzing the fiber cement siding market.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) Report of 2020, the building or housing sectors are getting extra benefits from increased government investment, as buildings have been the primary target for energy efficiency stimulus spending announcements till date. Further, in a few regions, the scale of this investment could be large enough to significantly boost technical efficiency. For instance, according to the US News & World Report L.P. data of June 2020, the US is now focusing on modernizing its infrastructure with the construction of energy-efficient buildings. The US Mayors, such as Concord, New Hampshire; Denton, Texas; Denver, Colorado; Fayetteville, Arkansas; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Norman, Oklahoma, are taking actions on climate change. The measures supported by the federal government include several programs to modernize existing buildings with better insulation and more efficient heating systems. Therefore, with this focus on energy-efficient buildings, the use of fiber cement sidings will continue to increase the construction of residential buildings worldwide, which results in the growing demand for energy-efficient buildings globally, thereby creating future opportunities for fiber cement siding market players.
Impact of COVID-19 on Fiber Cement Siding Market Growth
APAC is characterized by many developing countries, with a positive economic outlook, high residential and industrial presence, huge population, and rise in disposable income. All these factors make it a major contributor to the fiber cement siding market growth. However, prolonged lockdown periods due to the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a huge decline in the growth of the construction industry in the region in 2020, which has affected the demand for fiber cement siding. Several raw material providers discontinued their production activities across various countries during the initial phase of COVID-19 to avoid the further spread of the disease. This halt in production led to reduced supplies in various Asian countries, including India and China. However, the relaxation in lockdown restrictions and the ongoing vaccination processes support the steady raw material shipment and industrial activities, which boosted the growth of the fiber cement siding market in APAC in 2021.
