Green building materials encompass those that are both locally sourced and renewable. These materials, which are instrumental in enhancing a building's sustainability and efficiency, not only emit less carbon pollution but also require less water and maintenance compared to similar products.
The primary categories of green building materials include structural, exterior, interior, and others. The components constituting the walls, roof, foundation, stairs, associated projections, and other external sections and features collectively form the building exterior. Exterior applications of green building materials involve the use of bamboo, recycled steel, and reclaimed wood. These materials find application in framing, insulation, roofing, exterior siding, interior finishing, and various other aspects, catering to both residential and non-residential buildings.

This green building materials market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The green building materials market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $305.63 billion in 2023 to $338.53 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.8%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be credited to robust economic growth in emerging markets, heightened construction activities in developing regions, favorable governmental policies promoting green buildings, population growth, advancing industrialization, a low-interest-rate environment, and technological advancements.
The green building materials market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $490.8 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is linked to a heightened requirement for sustainable and eco-friendly solutions, a growing demand for energy-efficient buildings, and the expanding applications of green building materials in both residential and non-residential sectors. Prominent trends expected in the forecast period encompass a concentration on environmentally friendly building materials, an emphasis on mass timber technology, a focus on adopting mineral wool insulation techniques, a priority on green cement, an emphasis on eco-friendly paints, a spotlight on new product launches, and an increased focus on partnerships and collaborations.
The growth of the green building materials market is anticipated to be propelled in the forthcoming years due to an increased demand for green buildings. Green building involves the application of ecologically responsible and resource-efficient procedures and designs throughout various stages, including site selection, design, construction, operation, service, remodeling, and deconstruction. The surge in demand for green buildings is directly influencing the expansion of the market for green building materials. Notably, a report from CBRE India in April 2022 revealed a significant rise in attention towards green building over the past five years, with a 37% increase in the supply of green-certified buildings, adding 78 million square feet of certified stock.
The green building materials market is expected to experience growth driven by the increasing demand for eco-friendly alternatives. Eco-friendly alternatives are products, practices, or solutions designed to have minimal environmental impact, promote sustainability, and reduce harm to ecosystems. Within the construction industry, these alternatives play a vital role, especially in the context of green building materials. According to the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) report, green buildings have the potential to reduce carbon emissions by 34% and consume 25% less energy compared to conventional buildings. With concerns about global warming on the rise, the demand for green building materials is escalating as sustainable and eco-friendly practices become imperative for conserving energy and protecting natural resources.
The green building materials market is witnessing a rising popularity of environment-friendly building materials. Major players in the market are focusing on introducing new product lines with low global warming potential (GWP) while maintaining high product quality. For instance, Owens Corning launched its FOAMULAR NGX product line in August 2021, incorporating extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam products with a unique blowing agent to reduce their global warming potential by 90% without compromising product quality.
Manufacturers in the green building materials market are actively developing sustainable and eco-friendly solutions for chemical paints. Eco-friendly paints are innovative products designed to have minimal or zero volatile organic chemicals (VOCs). These paints are made from organic materials such as water, plant oils, essential oils, tree resins, and natural dyes. To address environmental and health concerns, the Khadi and Village Industries Commission in January 2021 introduced Khadi Prakritik Paint, a non-toxic, eco-friendly paint with anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties, utilizing cow excrement as a primary ingredient.
In January 2022, Builders FirstSource, a U.S.-based manufacturer and supplier of building materials, completed the acquisition of National Lumber for $440 million. This strategic move allows Builders FirstSource to expand its capabilities into New England and enhance its value-added solutions. National Lumber, a U.S.-based building materials company, offers a diverse range of green building materials, contributing to the overall growth of the market.
