Gypsum Board Market Segmentation
Grand View Research has segmented the global gypsum board market report on the basis of product, application, and region:
Based on the Product Insights, the market is segmented into wallboard, ceiling board, pre-decorated board and others
- Wallboards emerged as the largest product segment in 2020 and accounted for a share of more than 50% owing to wide acceptance of wallboards as a substitute to plaster and lath. Increasing demand for sustainable construction is expected to drive the product demand during the forecast years.
- The gypsum ceiling board is increasingly replacing other conventional counterparts including plaster in ceilings and interior walls. These ceiling boards significantly improve the thermal and sound insulation in buildings at a relatively lower cost whilst offering high rigidity and core strength.
- The pre-decorated boards' segment is estimated to register the fastest CAGR from 2021 to 2028 due to the extensive usage of these products in various construction projects owing to their low maintenance and easy installation properties.
- Other gypsum-based products including sheathing, plaster base, and lath are gaining traction in the market on account of their ability to enhance the architectural design and aesthetics of the building structures.
Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into pre-engineered buildings, residential, industrial, commercial and institutional
- Gypsum is widely used in Pre-engineered Buildings (PEBs) in roofing and external wall applications. It is commonly used in industrial structures as it facilitates easy fitting in windows and doors while providing security. Pre-engineered buildings are highly economical and lightweight.
- The residential application segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 47% in 2020 and is projected to expand further at the fastest CAGR from 2021 to 2028.
- Growing urban population coupled with increasing demand for aesthetically improved materials in the building architecture is likely to support the segment growth.
- Moreover, design flexibility and easy fabrication offered by PEBs make them a preferred building material over other conventional alternatives, such as steel.
- Laminated gypsum wallboards, with the base layer stapled to the wall and the second finished layer laminated to the base layer, are the most commonly used gypsum product in institutional applications.
- Institutional construction activities are expected to witness a rapid growth rate in the coming years owing to the increasing number of K-12 school construction projects.
