Rapid Growth of Construction Sector to Drive the Gypsum Board Market
Gypsum boards offer several advantages in the construction sector such as sound isolation, durability, fire resistance and ease of installation. Gypsum board serves as an excellent fire-resistive building material, mostly used in interior finishes. It also prevents the transfer of unwanted sounds to the adjoining areas in a building. Owing to such properties offered by gypsum boards, the demand for it has witnessed a growth in the past few years. With the rapid growth of construction sector, the demand for gypsum board is likely to grow, in turn driving the market during the forecast period.
