The residential segment showed a gradual increase in the market share, from USD 9.71 billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. Moreover, they naturally exhibits properties such as fire resistance, light weight, durability, and sound isolation. Therefore, it is widely used in the construction of residential buildings across the world. Moreover, governments across the world are introducing various schemes to increase homeownership. For instance, the Malaysian government has announced a full stamp duty exemption for homebuyers who are buying homes for the first time in the country until 2025. Additionally, the Malaysian government has extended the stamp duty exemption for buyers of abandoned housing projects in the country. Therefore, the exemption from stamp duty is expected to push new developers to take on half-completed projects and potentially accelerate the completion of abandoned housing projects in Malaysia. Similarly, in Australia, government schemes such as HomeBuilder and Solar Upgrade have been supporting the growth of residential construction activities. These factors are expected to drive the growth of residential construction activities in regions notably in APAC, propelling the growth of the regional market during the forecast period.

The market is experiencing growth due to its versatile applications in wallboard and pre-engineered metal buildings (PEBs). Its hygroscopic properties make it ideal for end-user applications, but susceptibility to water damage raises environmental concerns, particularly in landfills where it can contribute to methane gas emissions. Despite these issues, the market benefits from ongoing construction investments and the rising consumer expenditure in both residential and business construction sectors. Major players in the industry are innovating to meet the demands of a growing market, with a mounting variety offering novel uses in the building sector. The global market continues to expand, driven by the rising population and refugee issues requiring sustainable construction solutions. Our researchers studied the data for years, with 2022 as the base year and 2023 as the estimated year, and presented the key drivers, trends, and challenges for the market. Although there has been a decrease in demand for the market during the COVID-19 pandemic, a holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The rising number of infrastructural and construction activities is a key factor driving the global market. The market is poised for growth due to a surge in construction investments across major economies like China, India, Russia, and the US. Notably, the US Census Bureau highlights a spike in permits for residential construction, driven by the growing demand for multi-family buildings and urban migration trends. Similarly, countries such as Mexico, Australia, and Canada exhibit sustained momentum in residential construction, bolstered by moderate economic growth.
Moreover, regions like India and Australia anticipate a surge in demand for residential accommodation owing to rising population and urbanization rates. For instance, the Indian construction industry witnessed a 6.2% year-over-year growth in the final quarter of 2020, as reported by the Ministry of Statistics and Program Implementation (MOSPI). These trends indicate a rising number of infrastructural and construction activities, promising continued growth for the market in the foreseeable future.
The increase in M&A and partnerships will fuel the global market. Vendors in the market are adopting strategies such as mergers and acquisitions and partnerships to gain a competitive advantage over existing vendors as well as new entrants. For instance, In November 2021, Compagnie de Saint Gobain SA acquired a minority stake in Livspace, which is a digital-first company focused on growing residential markets in India and other Southeast Asian countries. Similarly, In October 2021, Compagnie de Saint Gobain SA acquired RABONI Normandie, which is a multi-specialist distributor of construction materials in the market in France. The above factors will increase the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
The adverse impact of gypsum on the environment is a major challenge to global market growth. Gypsum board is a common construction material, which is also known as drywall or plasterboard. Gypsum board production can adversely impact the environment. This is because processing the gypsum releases particulates from the gypsum powder along with sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxide, as well as carbon monoxide, which are harmful to the environment. Moreover, heating the gypsum involves high energy costs. One significant problem with gypsum is that, when left to decompose in landfills, it produces foul-smelling, lethal hydrogen sulfide gas. This hydrogen sulfide is a toxic gas that can build up in the environment as well as cause acid rain, which adversely impacts the environment. Rising environmental concerns across the world can result in a decrease in demand for gypsum boards. Therefore, these factors can hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.
