Gypsum involves the extraction of gypsum and its compounds, which are utilized in the manufacturing of wallboard, cement, plaster of Paris, soil conditioning, and as a hardening retarder in Portland cement.
The primary categories of gypsum include construction gypsum, agricultural gypsum, and other types of gypsum. Gypsum contributes to enhancing soil drainage and preventing waterlogging caused by a combination of high sodium, swelling clay, and excess water. The end products encompass pre-decorated boards, wallboard, and ceiling board, with applications spanning both commercial and residential sectors. Mining methods for gypsum include underground mining and surface mining.
The gypsum market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides gypsum market statistics, including gypsum industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a gypsum market share, detailed gypsum market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the gypsum industry. This gypsum market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The gypsum market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $35.56 billion in 2023 to $39.8 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.9%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to heightened mining production and government initiatives aimed at expanding gypsum mines.
The gypsum market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $59.38 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to an increase in the demand for plaster of Paris and a rise in cement production. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period include investments in lithium battery-powered gypsum haulers as opposed to conventional or diesel-powered mining machinery and equipment, a surge in overall investment, the utilization of 3D mine visualizers to create real-time digital models of mines, and a focus on technologies aimed at preventing accidents and enhancing the safety of miners.
The projected increase in cement production is poised to be a driving force behind the growth of the gypsum mining market in the forecast period. Cement, a crucial building material that undergoes setting and hardening, incorporates gypsum as its main mineral. Gypsum acts as a retarding agent for cement, regulating its setting time. Without gypsum, cement clinker can rapidly solidify upon contact with water, generating heat. Notably, according to the India Brand Equity Foundation, cement production in India witnessed a notable 19.4% increase in June 2022 compared to June 2021. Consequently, the upsurge in cement production is expected to foster the expansion of the gypsum market.
A surge in the demand for Plaster of Paris (PoP) is anticipated to drive the growth of the gypsum market in the foreseeable future. PoP, derived from gypsum, is utilized in crafting sculptures and metal castings for decorative applications in buildings. The preparation of PoP involves heating gypsum with calcium sulfate dihydrate to approximately 150°C. The growing demand for PoP is a pivotal factor likely to stimulate a heightened need for gypsum mining to extract the essential mineral. A report from the Indian Ministry of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises's Development Institute projects the global PoP market to reach $600 million by 2030, underscoring the potential for increased demand driving the growth of the gypsum market.
Gypsum mining companies are increasingly adopting 3D mine visualizers to create real-time digital models of mines. These visualizers generate three-dimensional representations of mine layouts, providing operators with accessible information through web-based interfaces. The technology offers features such as full recording and playback capabilities in 3D, allowing operators to review historical data, enhance productivity, and identify best practices. Noteworthy companies such as Sandvik and Komatsu are actively offering 3D visualizer systems. In July 2021, Tech Soft 3D, a U.S.-based software company, introduced HOOPS Visualize, a graphics engine for the MineRP Platform. This innovation facilitates powerful 3D visualization, aiding users in better decision-making for mine planning and execution.
The gypsum market is witnessing a notable trend of increasing investments, with companies focusing on expanding gypsum mines. For instance, in September 2022, Royal Invest s.a.r.l., based in Tunisia, entered into a finance agreement with UK-based financial management company Elite Capital & Co. Limited to finance new mining plants. The agreement aims to support the expansion of the Royal Gypse Gypsum Mine, a respected gypsum mine in Tunisia. Similarly, in September 2021, American Gypsum, a U.S.-based company manufacturing and distributing gypsum wallboard, received approval from the Eagle County Board of Commissioners to expand its Eagle County opencast gypsum mine by 12%, securing raw material supply for its nearby gypsum wallboard plant until 2046.
In July 2022, Saint-Gobain, a France-based company specializing in construction materials and solutions, acquired Kaycan for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition reinforces Saint-Gobain's leadership in light and sustainable construction, making it the leading siding player in Canada and expanding its vinyl offerings in the United States with additional solutions in aluminum and engineered wood. Kaycan is a U.S.-based company operating in the gypsum wallboard sector.
