How big is Calcium Sulphate Market in 2026?
A 4.2% CAGR for 2026 to 2036 applies to gypsum and anhydrite sales. The 2025 base is USD 288.9 million, the 2026 estimate USD 301.0 million and the 2036 projection USD 454.2 million.
Adoption of calcium sulphate is broad across board lines, cement kilns and farms, and market size stood at USD 288.9 million in 2025. Sales are estimated at USD 301.0 million in 2026 and are projected to reach USD 454.2 million by 2036, a CAGR of 4.2% from 2026 to 2036, FMI's report shows.
Board plants buy mined and synthetic material for wallboard. The gypsum market is projected to grow at a 6.4% CAGR from 2026 to 2036. Calcium sulphate grows slower owing to the value board makers add in finished panels, and every new board line still needs raw feed. Increasing green building certification is supporting the demand for low-carbon plasterboard, and the green building materials market is set to expand at an 11.3% CAGR from 2026 to 2036. Flue gas gypsum is a by-product of coal plant scrubbers, so board makers selling into certified projects can count the material as recycled content.
Light construction is challenging the established playing field in Brazilian housing, and Saint-Gobain reported that adoption of the method is growing across Latin America.[1] Saint-Gobain said in August 2026 that a fourth plasterboard production line will be built at the Bahia plant.[1] The new Bahia line will need a steady gypsum feed in northeast Brazil through 2036.

Market Size & Forecast
Table 1: Market Size and Forecast for the Calcium Sulphate Market (USD million and percentage), 2025 to 2036
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| 2025 Market Size | USD 288.9 million |
| Estimated Market Size in 2026 | USD 301.0 million |
| Projected Market Size by 2036 | USD 454.2 million |
| CAGR, 2026 to 2036 | 4.2% |
| Added Revenue, 2026 to 2036 | USD 153.2 million |
| Market Expansion Multiple | 1.5x |
Board line start-ups set the timing of calcium sulphate orders, since new lines contract gypsum ahead of production. Etex reported H1 2026 revenue of EUR 2,020 million, up 4.9%, in September 2026.[3] Saint-Gobain gypsum, light steel framing and related businesses in Vietnam generated over €200 million in 2025.[5] Paint and plastics makers can swap calcium sulphate for calcium carbonate filler, so steady calcium carbonate market growth caps filler-grade calcium sulphate prices. Cement and ready-mix plants also buy calcium chloride, so suppliers of both salts court the same customers as the calcium chloride market grows. FMI estimates USD 153.2 million of added market size from 2026 to 2036, a 1.5x multiple on the 2026 base. Rising haulage costs are squeezing margins on long-distance gypsum as coal plant closures cut nearby flue gas supply. Producers are therefore securing quarry reserves close to new plants.
Synthetic Gypsum Supply and New Board Lines
Synthetic gypsum made up about 39% of 2025 US domestic supply, the US Geological Survey estimated.[2] US crude gypsum output reached an estimated 20 million tons in 2025, and apparent consumption about 44 million tons.[2] Imports came mainly from Spain, Mexico and Canada over 2021 to 2024.[2] FMI predicts that natural gypsum quarries will regain share as coal-fired generation declines.
Saint-Gobain bought Phu My Innovative Materials, one of the largest plasterboard facilities in Vietnam.[5] Etex took a majority stake in Global Gypse, which runs a plasterboard plant in Mascara near Oran.[6] Etex is also investing EUR 27 million across four Siniat plasterboard sites in Australia.[7] New lines in Asia, Africa and Australia will each need a local gypsum source.

By region: MEA, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America.
Why does gypsum lead product type sales?
Product type sales in 2026 split 76% gypsum and 24% anhydrite.
Table 3: Product Type Share for the Calcium Sulphate Market (percentage share), 2026
| Product Type | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Gypsum | 76% |
| Anhydrite | 24% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Table 4: Product Type Leadership and Market Growth for the Calcium Sulphate Market (segment and CAGR percentage), 2026 to 2036
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Global CAGR (2026 to 2036) | 4.2% |
| Leading Segment | Gypsum |
Gypsum leads with 76% of 2026 product sales in the FMI study, since gypsum calcines at low heat into plaster for board lines and sets cement. Anhydrite holds the other 24% and needs higher firing or chemical activation before use, so board makers buy little of the mineral. Screed makers choose anhydrite for self-levelling floors, which keeps a steady niche. Natural rock supplies 62% of gypsum use and synthetic material 38%. Iran mined an estimated 16 million tons of gypsum in 2025 and China 12 million tons, the US Geological Survey reported in February 2026.[2]
- Spain supplied 38% of US gypsum imports over 2021 to 2024, the US Geological Survey reported in February 2026.[2]
Why does technical grade lead grade demand?
Technical grade accounts for 69.5% of 2026 grade demand, food grade 18% and pharmaceutical grade 12.5%.
Table 5: Grade Share for the Calcium Sulphate Market (percentage share), 2026
| Grade | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Technical | 69.5% |
| Food | 18% |
| Pharmaceutical | 12.5% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Bulk binders, fillers and soil products need no purity premium, and technical grade holds 69.5% of 2026 grade sales in FMI's analysis. Food grade, at 18%, faces strict purity testing and sells in smaller lots to bakeries and dairies. Pharmaceutical grade holds 12.5% and needs certified calcination for tablets and bone cements. Etex reported H1 2026 revenue of EUR 2,020 million, up 4.9%, in September 2026.[3]
Why does construction lead application demand?
Construction draws 51.5% of 2026 calcium sulphate applications, industrial use 21.5% and agriculture 14%.
Table 6: Application Share for the Calcium Sulphate Market (percentage share), 2026
| Application | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Construction | 51.5% |
| Industrial | 21.5% |
| Agriculture | 14% |
| Food and Beverages | 7.5% |
| Pharma and Personal Care | 5.5% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Construction draws 51.5% of 2026 application demand, analysts at FMI say. Industrial use (21.5%) buys smaller lots for ceramics and tiles. Agriculture takes 14% and buys seasonally for sodic soil remediation. Food and beverages at 7.5% and pharma and personal care at 5.5% need costly high-purity grades. Drywall and plasterboard account for 64% of construction use. Etex Building Performance booked EUR 1,232 million of first-half 2026 revenue, a 4.7% like-for-like rise, the company reported in September 2026.[3]
- German construction output rose 9.3% in August 2026 from July, Destatis reported.[8]
- Saint-Gobain said in August 2026 that adoption of light construction is growing in Latin America.[1]
What are the drivers, restraints, and opportunities in the calcium sulphate market?
Demand for calcium sulphate grows with infrastructure, urban housing and green building certification. Key challenges in the calcium sulphate market include falling flue gas gypsum supply, short economic haul distances and substitution by cement board and engineered wood.
- Driver: Board capacity is rising, and Saint-Gobain announced a fourth Bahia plasterboard line in Brazil in August 2026.[1]
- Restraint: Western European demand is soft, and Etex named France and the UK as the more challenging regions for January to June 2026.[3]
- Opportunity: Asian board markets are expanding, and Saint-Gobain gypsum and related businesses in Vietnam generated over €200 million in 2025.[5]
Board Plants Follow Housing in Asia and Latin America
Saint-Gobain and Etex are adding plasterboard capacity in Brazil and Australia. The Bahia site in Brazil will host the largest plasterboard line in South America once the fourth line is complete.[1] Etex operates 23 sites in Australia and is investing EUR 27 million in four of them.[7]
Weak European Construction Slows Board Volumes
Western European demand remains soft. France and the UK were the more challenging Etex regions over January to June 2026.[3] The renovation sector has also weakened, Etex added.[3] European calcium sulphate sales will lag until new-build permits recover.
Asian Board Markets and Specialty Grades
Saint-Gobain runs 12 plants in Vietnam and bought Phu My Innovative Materials, one of the largest plasterboard facilities in the country, in July 2026.[5] Pharmaceutical grade holds 12.5% of 2026 grade demand, led by drug delivery and bone cements. Phosphate plants also yield by-product gypsum, so growth of the phosphate fertilizer market sets the volume of that phosphogypsum stream. Saint-Gobain, with 12 plants in Vietnam, can bid first for specialty-grade contracts in Southeast Asia.
