What have been the primary factors driving the gypsum-based plasterboard market’s growth?
Increasing demand from the construction industry is expected to propel the growth of the gypsum-based plasterboard market going forward. Construction activities encompass a wide range of tasks and operations involved in developing infrastructure for sewage, stormwater, and nonpoint-source projects. An increase in construction activity is due to rapid urbanization, infrastructure development, and technological advancements. Gypsum-based plasterboard is used in construction activities for creating interior walls, ceilings, and partitions, providing a smooth, fire-resistant, and easy-to-install surface that can be finished with paint or wallpaper. For instance, in November 2023, according to the Office for National Statistics, a UK-based government report, the value of new construction work in Great Britain surged by 15.8% in 2022, reaching a record high of (£132,989) $174,216 million. This growth was largely fueled by substantial increases in both the private sector, which rose by $18,430 million, and the public sector, which saw a $5,329 million increase. Therefore, increasing demand from the construction industry is driving the gypsum-based plasterboard market.
