Gypsum Market Outlook, Size, Growth Drivers & Forecast to 2030

Market Overview

The global gypsum market revolves around the production, processing, distribution, and consumption of gypsum — a naturally occurring mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate. Gypsum is an essential raw material widely used across many industries including construction, cement production, agriculture, and industrial applications.

Due to its excellent binding properties, cost effectiveness, and wide availability, gypsum is most commonly used in the manufacturing of plaster, wallboard, drywall, and cement. It also plays a crucial role in soil conditioning and fertilizer formulation in the agricultural sector. The increasing demand for sustainable construction materials, expanding infrastructure projects globally, and greater use of gypsum in industrial applications are key factors propelling market growth.

Market Size and Growth Projections

The global gypsum market is charting a strong growth trajectory, with continued expansion expected through 2030. Market growth is driven by increasing demand from end-use industries, rapid urbanization, construction and renovation activities, and heightened demand for gypsum in agricultural applications.
