According to the Gypsum Association, gypsum panel is produced more than 25 billion square-foot each year in the United States and Canada. In the United States, more than 97% of the structures that are constructed require a gypsum board. Owing to the developing construction industry, it has led to a huge contribution to the economy which has eventually marshaled the gypsum board markets growth. The economic impact of even a single gypsum board plant is incredibly high.

Owing to the recent developments in the gypsum board market, APAC has been observing magnificent growth as compared to other regions. The regional share of the APAC was more than 35% in 2018. China is the fastest growing economy in APAC and gypsum board market adds up to the stroking economic conditions of the country. The construction industry is widely expanding due to which the gypsum boards have sustained a strong hold in the market. The anticipated application CAGR of the residential construction industry is estimated to be around 6% during the forecast period of 2019 to 2025 by the market analyst.

Gypsum board has become a basic necessity of the people, it is cost-efficient and easy to install building material. These things have risen its demand in the market and has set up a few trends which are listed below:

Gypsum board is a cost-effective and fire-resistant product with better surface durability and extended wearability in terms of performance. The demand for multi-family buildings is stroking rapidly in the developing countries such as the United States, Canada, and China. The gypsum boards are best in sound attenuation for a multi-family building and has the longest durability.

Gypsum boards are vulnerable to moisture, and so, it needs constant replacement. This is a major aspect that can dwarf the gypsum board market size. Hence, the manufacturers have introduced non-paper-faced gypsum boards that are more reliable. Also, VOC drywalls actively removes poisonous gas from the air and converts them into fresh and safe for breathing. This can also be added to soil and fertilizers as a substitute for agriculture gypsum. VOC drywalls are poised to bring upon a revolution in the gypsum board market.  

Some of the major players in the gypsum board market are Lafarge, Saint-Gobain Gyproc, Global Mining Company LLC, and BPB India Gypsum.
