Demand for fibre cement expected to reach 32.6 million tonnes in 2019
Market researchers, the Freedonia Group, released a new study with predictions for global fibre cement product demand from 2014 to 2019; it forecasts the material will expand 4.4 per cent per year. “World Fibre Cement” states the growth will be partially due to a housing market rebound in the United States, which will drive the demand for fibre cement siding.
