Market Synopsis
Fiber cement, also known as reinforced fiber cement, is a composite building material used in construction. It is mainly composed of Portland cement, fine silica (sand), cellulosic material, and other additives.
Fiber cement products include boards, panels, and siding and are widely used in the construction of residential and commercial buildings due to their fire and impact resistant properties. Fiber cement panels are used for exterior wall cladding, partition walls, ceilings, and decorative applications. Fiber cement decorative cladding is used for rainscreen applications, while fiber cement boards are used in tunnels, corridors, hotel lobbies, shopping malls, and residential buildings, among others. The application of fiber cement products in residences, commercial buildings, and warehouses, among others, provides resistance to fire, water, and impact. Fiber cement is a low-cost composite material and provides resistance to fungi, mold, and bacteria, thus increasing its durability. Furthermore, the material is inert and, hence, can directly be dumped in landfills without causing harm to the environment.
