How big is Gypsum Market in 2026?
The gypsum market is estimated at USD 17.4 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 18.5 billion in 2026. Demand for gypsum is forecast to grow at a 6.4% CAGR and reach USD 34.5 billion by 2036.
Demand for gypsum is set to rise from an estimated USD 17.4 billion in 2025 to USD 18.5 billion in 2026. Behind this rise, dry-lining is replacing wet plaster and block partitions in homes, offices and hospitals, so sales of gypsum are likely to reach USD 34.5 billion by 2036 on a 6.4% CAGR.

Secure rock is becoming the main advantage for board makers as flue-gas gypsum declines. Canada is expected to match the global pace with a 6.4% CAGR through 2036, and Germany to lag at 5%. In Canada, CGC, a USG subsidiary, began commissioning the Little Narrows gypsum mine in Nova Scotia in October 2026 with a test shipment, after a reported US$73.1 million modernisation, and expects full operation in early 2027.[1] That reopened quarry close to tidewater gives board plants in Eastern Canada and on the US East Coast a secure rock source, and secure feed lets producers commit to new wallboard lines. By comparison, German board makers face the opposite problem, as flue-gas gypsum from coal plants is running down faster than recycled feed can replace the lost tonnes.
Further back, FMI analysis places Japan and the United States, both at 5.8%, in the next tier, with repair and remodel jobs keeping board volume steady through slow housing starts. As a result, producers that control quarries or recycling sites will hold price best as synthetic supply narrows.
Key Market Trends & Insights
- Plasterboard/drywall heads product type with 47.5% share in 2026, ahead of cement at about 22.4%.
- As coal plant closures thin flue-gas supply, natural gypsum is likely to hold 56.5% of form sales in 2026. Board makers are adding recycled feed to replace part of the lost FGD tonnes. In May 2026, a Knauf and BSR recycling plant in Bavaria able to process up to 90,000 tonnes received the emission permit.[2] Recycled feed at that scale covers only a fraction of German needs, so quarried rock keeps the larger share.
- Construction dominates end use at an estimated 84.6%, through wall, ceiling and cement applications, and farm buyers of soil conditioner add about 8.9%.
Regional Highlights
- China is set to grow at 7.5% in FMI's forecast, the quickest pace among the leading countries, as renovation and public building work replace new homes.
- India follows at 7.2% as new board lines open, and Canada matches the global 6.4% with a reopened Nova Scotia mine. Below that, the United States and Japan share 5.8%. Germany comes last at 5%, a tenth of a point under Spain.
- Spanish board makers are cutting gas use to meet low-carbon building rules. Saint-Gobain Placo Ibérica plans to partly electrify the 30 Mm² Quinto wallboard plant in Zaragoza from mid-2027 with €20.8 million from the EU Innovation Fund, under plans announced in October 2026.[3] Electrified calcining lowers the carbon content of Spanish board, which helps producers qualify for certified public projects.
Market Size & Forecast
Table 1: Market Size and Forecast for the Gypsum Market (USD billion and percentage), 2025 to 2036
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| 2025 Market Size | USD 17.4 billion |
| Estimated Market Size in 2026 | USD 18.5 billion |
| Projected Market Size by 2036 | USD 34.5 billion |
| CAGR, 2026 to 2036 | 6.4% |
| Added Revenue, 2026 to 2036 | USD 16.0 billion |
| Market Expansion Multiple | 1.9x |
US board demand is soft on weak housing, and freight costs are eroding price. In the United States, Eagle Materials reported wallboard sales volume of 772 MMSF in the June 2026 quarter, 2% lower, at an average net price of USD 209.65 per MSF, down 10% on higher freight.[4] Lower prices on near-flat volume show producers absorbing freight to keep plants loaded. The country also has ample spare board capacity. At the national level, USGS estimated US wallboard sales at 26 billion square feet in 2025 against capacity near 34 billion square feet.[5] Spare capacity of that size keeps US board prices competitive until housing recovers. Tape and finishing products are sold with every board, so the joint compound market expands nearly in step, at a 5.2% CAGR. By 2036, FMI projects the gypsum market at 1.9 times the 2026 figure, after roughly USD 16.0 billion of added sales. Even so, shrinking flue-gas supply from closing coal plants is the main risk to board makers' feed costs.
Rock Supply, Recycled Feed and Board Prices
Board makers are securing rock as flue-gas supply declines. For instance, a joint venture of Knauf and BSR announced on 19 May 2026 an emission control permit for a Bavarian plant able to recycle up to 90,000 tonnes, and said the German gypsum processing industry needs about 9 to 10 million tonnes.[2] A single plant of that size meets only about 1% of German demand. By comparison, dismantling and remediation waste comes to under 600,000 tonnes in Germany, so recycled feed can cover only a small share of that need.[2] German board makers will therefore keep buying quarried rock and imports for most of the decade.
Freight and energy are moving board prices, and growth is shifting toward emerging regions. For example, Etex reported H1 2026 sales of EUR 2,020 million, up 5.1% like for like, and Building Performance, the plasterboard and fibre cement division, grew 4.7% like for like to EUR 1,232 million.[6] Within that total, Western Europe declined, and Latin America and Asia-Pacific offset the fall, so producers with plants in emerging regions grew fastest.

Analyst Perspective
“Supply of rock will decide which gypsum producers grow fastest through 2036. I expect board makers that own quarries or recycling sites to hold price as coal-plant gypsum disappears, and buyers of flue-gas feed to lose share. Clean demolition board will turn into a priced raw material, giving rise to a new trade in sorted gypsum waste between demolition firms and board plants.”

How is the gypsum market segmented?
The market is segmented into product type, form, end use, and region. Plasterboard/drywall is expected to lead product type with 47.5% share in 2026, and natural gypsum leads form with 56.5%.
By product type: plasterboard/drywall, cement, plaster, soil amendment, and others.
By form: natural gypsum and synthetic gypsum (FGD).
By end use: construction, agriculture, industrial, and others.
By region: quarries, board plants and farm buyers in North America, Latin America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, East Asia, South Asia and Pacific, and Middle East and Africa.
Why does plasterboard/drywall lead gypsum sales by product type?

Plasterboard/drywall is expected to lead product type sales with 47.5% share in 2026, ahead of cement at about 22.4% and plaster at an estimated 16.3%.
Table 3: Product Type Share for the Gypsum Market (percentage share), 2026
| Product Type | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Plasterboard/Drywall | 47.5% |
| Cement | 22.4% |
| Plaster | 16.3% |
| Soil Amendment | 8.2% |
| Others | 5.6% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Table 4: Product Type Leadership and Market Growth for the Gypsum Market (segment and CAGR percentage), 2026 to 2036
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Global CAGR (2026 to 2036) | 6.4% |
| Leading Segment | Plasterboard/Drywall |
Plasterboard/drywall will lead product type sales at 47.5% in 2026, since one board closes a wall in minutes and the finish dries the same day. Cement, about 22.4%, uses ground gypsum as a set retarder, so volume follows kiln output and grows more slowly than board. Plaster, near 16.3%, serves hand- and machine-applied finishes on masonry walls, and a shortage of plasterers keeps moving that work to board. Soil amendment, an estimated 8.2%, and others at 5.6% cover farm use, moulds and fillers. Board capacity is already large in mature markets. For scale, USGS put US wallboard capacity near 34 billion square feet at the start of 2025.[5] Capacity of that size lets US plants meet a housing recovery without new lines. In addition, setting additives are dosed on every board line, and the plaster accelerator market will grow with board output. For these reasons, builders choose board for speed and keep plaster for regions with cheap wet trades.
- Standard, moisture-resistant, fire-rated and acoustic boards form the plasterboard/drywall line.
- Board is gaining ground in emerging housing markets. Residential construction will raise demand for gypsum wallboard in India, Saint-Gobain India said in October 2026.[7] Producers adding Indian board capacity will gain from that shift.
Why does natural gypsum lead gypsum sales by form?
Natural gypsum is projected to lead form sales with 56.5% share in 2026, against synthetic gypsum (FGD) at an estimated 43.5%.
Table 5: Form Share for the Gypsum Market (percentage share), 2026
| Form | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Natural Gypsum | 56.5% |
| Synthetic Gypsum (FGD) | 43.5% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Quarried rock from Spain, Iran, Oman, Thailand and Mexico needs no coal plant, so natural gypsum is projected to lead form sales with 56.5% in 2026. By contrast, synthetic gypsum (FGD), about 43.5%, is purer and arrives from power station scrubbers, but supply falls each time a coal unit closes. For instance, USGS estimated US synthetic output at 17 million tons in 2025, about 39% of domestic supply, and linked flat consumption to more gas-fired and less coal-fired generation.[5] As a result, board plants built next to power stations now haul rock or recycled feed from further away. Over the forecast period, buyers will use FGD as long as scrubbers run and move to quarried rock afterwards.
- Quarried rock from Spain, Mexico and Canada supplies most natural gypsum imported into the United States.
- Idle quarries are coming back as FGD supply declines. CGC began commissioning the Little Narrows mine in Nova Scotia, idle since 2016, in October 2026.[1] Restarted mines near tidewater give natural gypsum new supply for eastern board plants.
Why does construction lead gypsum sales by end use?
Construction is likely to lead end-use sales with 84.6% share in 2026, with agriculture at about 8.9% and industrial at roughly 4.8%.
Table 6: End Use Share for the Gypsum Market (percentage share), 2026
| End Use | Estimated Share (2026) |
|---|---|
| Construction | 84.6% |
| Agriculture | 8.9% |
| Industrial | 4.8% |
| Others | 1.7% |
| Total | 100.0% |
Board, cement and plaster all end up in buildings, so construction is likely to lead end-use sales at 84.6% in 2026. Agriculture, about 8.9%, buys gypsum to loosen sodic soils and add calcium and sulphur, and farm orders follow crop prices. Industrial users, near 4.8%, buy alpha plaster for moulds, dental casts and fillers. Others, an estimated 1.7%, cover food and pharmaceutical grades. Builders remain the dominant gypsum buyers in every region. Even so, China reported real estate development investment down 20.6% for January to September 2026.[8] That decline moves Chinese board demand toward refits and public buildings, which keeps construction ahead but slows new-build volume. At the same time, air-tight wall systems pair board with membranes, and growth in the air barrier market, forecast at a 4.6% CAGR, comes from the same buildings. By 2036, builders will remain the main buyers, and farm use will grow with soil remediation.
- Housing, offices, hospitals, schools and retrofit jobs form the construction group.
- Construction demand is holding up outside Western Europe. Etex reported 4.7% like-for-like growth in Building Performance for the first half of 2026.[6] Growth at that rate in a building-led division confirms construction as the core outlet.
What are the drivers, restraints, and opportunities in the gypsum market?
Dry-lining in new and renovated buildings keeps demand for gypsum growing. Shrinking flue-gas supply raises feed costs for board makers, and recycling and low-carbon boards open new business.
- Driver: Contractors short of plasterers switch walls and ceilings to board systems, which raises gypsum use per square metre of floor area.
- Restraint: Coal plant closures cut synthetic gypsum supply, so board makers near power stations pay more to bring in rock from distant quarries.
- Opportunity: Builders seeking certified low-carbon walls favour boards with recycled content and electrified calciners, which earns early movers a price premium.
Dry Construction Spreads to New Wall Systems
Board is gaining preference over wet plaster in places with scarce site labour. For example, Saint-Gobain India plans to invest US$1.14 billion to triple business by 31 March 2031, with gypsum wallboard among the targets.[7] A plan of that size signals Indian builders moving to board. Other emerging regions are adding orders too. Likewise, Etex grew Building Performance sales 4.7% like for like in H1 2026 on Latin American and Asia-Pacific orders.[6] In turn, each switch from block-and-plaster to stud-and-board adds gypsum per square metre built.
Thinning FGD Supply Raises Feed Costs
Producers of gypsum board face a narrowing feed base. First, FGD gypsum from coal-fired power is falling faster than forecast, Knauf and BSR said.[2] Faster decline leaves German plants less time to secure replacement rock. US supply shows the same shift. Likewise, USGS reported flat US synthetic gypsum consumption as coal generation gives way to natural gas.[5] Consequently, in FMI's view, plants built beside power stations carry the highest cost risk, and board makers will pay more for haulage and quarry permits.
Recycling and Electrified Plants Open New Business
Low-carbon wall specifications will open the next round of growth for sales of gypsum. For instance, at Quinto, Saint-Gobain Placo Ibérica expects batteries, a 6 MW biomass plant and a 3 MW solar plant to cut natural gas use by 115 GWh and CO2 by 242,000 tonnes.[3] Cuts of that size give Quinto board a lower carbon footprint for certified projects. Alongside this, take-back schemes will send more clean feed to board lines as the gypsum plasterboard closed-loop recycling market in the EU rises at a projected 6.8% CAGR.
Which country CAGRs are profiled in the gypsum market?
Table 7: Country CAGR Comparison for the Gypsum Market (CAGR percentage), 2026 to 2036

| Country | CAGR (2026 to 2036) |
|---|---|
| China | 7.5% |
| India | 7.2% |
| Canada | 6.4% |
| United States | 5.8% |
| Japan | 5.8% |
| Spain | 5.1% |
| Germany | 5% |
How do country-level CAGRs compare in the gypsum market?
Chinese demand is moving from new homes to refits. Real estate development investment in China fell 20.6% in January to September 2026, so Chinese board makers are turning to renovation and public buildings.[8] Even after that fall, China is projected by FMI to grow fastest, at 7.5%, with India close behind at 7.2% as Saint-Gobain India pursues a growth plan that covers gypsum wallboard. Canadian growth, meanwhile, keeps pace with the 6.4% global rate for the gypsum market. The United States and Japan, both at 5.8%, grow through renovation and steady home building. Spain grows at 5.1% and exports quarried rock to the United States. Germany is slowest at 5%, facing the sharpest fall in flue-gas feed.
- Older Chinese apartments and public buildings are being refitted with dry partitions in place of brick. That switch raises board use per refit, so producers with distribution in tier-2 cities gain the most.
- To save labour time, apartment towers and offices in Indian metros are moving to board partitions. Producers adding local board lines can undercut imports and lock in builder accounts early.
- With Little Narrows reopening, Canadian board plants no longer rely on distant rock. Secure feed lowers input risk and makes new wallboard lines in Eastern Canada easier to justify.
- Repair and remodel jobs are now the main source of US wallboard orders as housing starts stay soft. Spare capacity keeps price competition intense, which favours low-cost producers with own rock.
- Few new homes are built in Japan, so board makers sell mainly into apartment refits and office fit-outs. Recycled feed grows in importance as coal plants close, giving producers with take-back systems a cost edge.
- Spanish quarries serve domestic plants and US importers alike. Export orders cushion slow home building, and plant electrification gives Spanish board a low-carbon selling point.
- Coal exit in Germany is removing flue-gas gypsum faster than recycled feed can replace the lost tonnes. Haulage and quarry permit costs rise as a result, squeezing German board margins more than volumes.

Country-wise Analysis
China Gypsum Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
A 7.5% CAGR through 2036 is expected for demand for gypsum in China as refits and public buildings replace new homes. For instance, the National Bureau of Statistics reported real estate development investment down 20.6% and infrastructure investment down 4.2% for January to September 2026.[8] In response, board makers are shifting sales to hospitals and schools, and dry partitions replace brick in many refits.
Key takeaway: Renovation and public buildings replace new homes as the board base in China.
India Gypsum Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Indian builders are switching to board partitions, and global producers are investing to supply them. A US$1.14 billion plan aims to triple Saint-Gobain India's business by March 2031, and the group has committed projects of US$560 million in Tamil Nadu.[7] Capital on that scale raises local board output and reduces dependence on imports. Alongside this, apartment towers and offices are moving to board partitions, and Indian demand should advance about 7.2% a year through 2036.
Key takeaway: Board capacity follows apartment and office construction in India.
Canada Gypsum Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Canadian board plants gain local rock, and sales of gypsum in Canada are likely to keep pace with the 6.4% global rate. In particular, CGC expects the Little Narrows mine to reach full operation in early 2027 and to supply CGC and USG plants in Eastern Canada and on the US East Coast.[1] Such local rock shortens supply chains and supports new board lines.
Key takeaway: Secure rock supply anchors growth in Canada.
United States Gypsum Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
US board demand is steady despite weak home building. Eagle Materials said wallboard volume declined only slightly in the June 2026 quarter despite continued softness in residential construction.[4] A small decline in a soft housing year points to remodelling holding volume up. Imports still supply part of US gypsum use. Beyond wallboard, USGS estimated US apparent consumption at about 44 million tons in 2025, with net import reliance of 15%.[5] A 15% import share keeps US board makers exposed to freight and supply from Spain and Mexico. Over the forecast period, remodelling and commercial interiors will keep the United States near a 5.8% CAGR.
Key takeaway: Repair and remodel jobs hold US board volume steady.
Japan Gypsum Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
FMI forecasts Japan to grow at 5.8%, 0.6 point under the 6.4% global figure, as few new homes are built. Instead, Japanese board makers such as Yoshino Gypsum serve apartment refits and office fit-outs. Those refits and fit-outs will therefore decide board volume.
Key takeaway: Refits of older homes and offices decide Japanese board volume.
Spain Gypsum Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
Spain is a major gypsum exporter as well as a board producer. Spain mined about 11 million tons of gypsum in 2025 and supplied 38% of US crude gypsum imports over 2021 to 2024, USGS data show.[5] Export demand gives Spanish quarries volume beyond the slow domestic market. Domestic board makers are investing in lower-carbon plants. On the board side, Saint-Gobain Placo Ibérica will start electrifying the Quinto plant from mid-2027.[3] Electrified plants position Spanish board for low-carbon public tenders. On this mix, FMI expects 5.1% growth for Spain as home building recovers slowly.
Key takeaway: Quarry exports and electrified plants define Spanish growth.
Germany Gypsum Market Outlook (2026 to 2036)
German producers are building recycling capacity to replace flue-gas feed. The new Bavarian plant of Knauf and BSR is due to process recycled gypsum by 2027 and to send the output to Knauf board plants about 50 km away.[2] Recycled feed that close to board plants cuts haulage, though volumes remain small. Meanwhile, coal exit removes flue-gas gypsum from German supply and forces a costly feed switch. As a result, Germany is predicted to grow at 5% through 2036, held back by feed replacement costs.
Key takeaway: Feed replacement limits growth in Germany.
Who are the notable companies in the gypsum market?
Saint-Gobain, Knauf, USG, Etex, Yoshino Gypsum, Eagle Materials and National Gypsum are the profiled companies.

FMI analysis shows global board groups, North American wallboard producers and Asian board makers leading gypsum board supply. Among the global groups, Etex reported H1 2026 REBITDA of EUR 384 million, up 8.8%, and cut net financial debt to EUR 1,098 million.[6] Lower debt gives Etex room for bolt-on board purchases. North American producers are integrated into board inputs. In North America, Eagle Materials sold 92,000 tons of recycled paperboard in the June 2026 quarter, a grade used as wallboard facing.[4] Own paperboard supply protects Eagle against facing-paper price swings. Rock supply is also being secured inside groups. In addition, Knauf owns USG, whose Canadian arm CGC is restarting Little Narrows.[1] The restart gives the Knauf group captive rock for East Coast board plants. Saint-Gobain, Yoshino Gypsum and National Gypsum complete the group.
- Global board groups: Saint-Gobain, Knauf and Etex.
- North American wallboard producers: USG, Eagle Materials and National Gypsum.
- Asian board makers: Yoshino Gypsum.
