India Plasterboard Market Trends:

Rising Demand for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Plasterboards

A considerable demand for eco-sustainable products has emerged in the India plasterboard market, providing proof of increasing environmental concern, in addition to regulatory support concerning green building materials. Emissions regulations to limit carbon footprints are becoming stringent, compelling manufacturers to invest in the use of recycled gypsum and low-carbon production technologies aimed at sustainability. For instance, in June 2024, as per industry reports, India's gypsum-based products market is projected to reach US$ 30 million by 2030, driven by an increasing demand in construction, sustainability initiatives, and regulatory compliance. Governmental programs detailed in the Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification criteria are enabling the adoption of sustainable plasterboards in both commercial and residential building. Recycled content in plasterboards, particularly synthetic gypsum produced from industrial by-products, becomes a market differentiator in the market. Manufacturers are also utilizing renewable materials and energy-efficient processes as pathways to sustainability. The demand for eco-friendly plasterboards is also fueled by a growing awareness among builders, architects, and end users of the health benefits of non-toxic, low-VOC materials. With the rapid growth of the construction industry in India, an increase in sustainable plasterboard demand is anticipated, especially in the urban centers where green buildings are gaining acceptance. Companies that are actively engaged in eco-product innovations and environmental compliance will enjoy a competitive advantage in this ever-shifting marketplace.

Growing Adoption of Fire-Resistant and Moisture-Resistant Plasterboards

Fire safety and moisture resistance have become critical considerations in India’s construction industry, driving demand for specialized plasterboards. With rapid urbanization and increasing high-rise construction, regulatory authorities are enforcing stricter fire safety codes, particularly in commercial and residential buildings. As a result, builders and developers are incorporating fire-resistant plasterboards in walls and ceilings to enhance structural safety. These boards are engineered to delay the fire’s progression, providing occupants additional time to escape and reducing damage. Simultaneously, moisture-resistant plasterboards are gaining popularity, especially in India with high humidity levels and areas prone to water exposure, such as kitchens and bathrooms. These boards are treated with water-repellent additives to prevent degradation, mold growth, and structural weakening caused by moisture infiltration. The hospitality, healthcare, and institutional construction sectors are among the primary adopters of these advanced plasterboards, given their need for durability and compliance with safety standards. Manufacturers are focusing on product innovation, developing multi-functional plasterboards that offer both fire and moisture resistance, catering to the growing safety and quality demands of India’s construction sector. For instance, in June 2024, Saint-Gobain India announced its plans to expand its gypsum business, aiming for US$4.3 billion in revenue across operations by 2032 as part of its new investment phase. This move reinforces the company’s commitment to innovation, focusing on energy-efficient, recyclable, and high-durability plasterboards to meet evolving industry needs. As regulatory standards continue to tighten, the adoption of performance-enhanced plasterboards is set to expand across various infrastructure projects.
