Market Segmentation

Canda Drywall Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032 offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:

 

Market Breakup Categories
Type Standard, Fire-Resistant, Mould/Moisture Resistant
Application Residential, Commercial
Region Northern Canada, British Columbia, Alberta, The Prairies, Central Canada, Atlantic Canada

 

By type, standard drywall is expected to hold a significant Canada drywall market share owing to its ease of installation

According to the Canada drywall market report, standard drywall is heavily sought after by construction contractors as it provides a smooth, hard surface and can also be installed quickly. Standard drywalls are relatively inexpensive and lighter than other types of drywall.

 

Fire-resistant drywalls have a thick design ideal for use in utility rooms, garages, and areas near a furnace or wood stove. Various types of fire-resistant drywalls such as Type X drywall and Type C drywall are adopted by builders in fire-prone areas to construct safer homes. Mould-resistant firewalls help to prevent the buildup of mould in moist or humid areas such as bathrooms and kitchens. The rising concerns regarding mould growth caused by storms and flooding are catering to an increased adoption of mould/moisture-resistant drywalls.

 

Commercial application of drywalls holds a prominent share of the drywall market in Canada

According to the Canada drywall market analysis, the superior acoustic properties of gypsum walls, are supporting its use in hospitals, hotels, and schools to provide these commercial establishments with enhanced soundproofing.

 

Residential demand for drywall is driven by factors like existing home sales, housing starts and completion, and interest rates. Further, in the commercial construction sector, by closely monitoring office vacancy rates, the Architecture Billings Index, government spending, GDP, and employment levels, market players can gauge opportunities in renovation works and new construction.
