According to Business Market Insights research, the South & Central America fiber cement market was valued at US$ 1,698.59 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 2,352.69 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 5.6% from 2022 to 2028. Growing awareness regarding benefits of fiber cement and surging demand for energy-efficient buildings are the critical factors attributed to the South & Central America fiber cement market expansion.

According to the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program, nearly one-third of global energy is consumed in residential, public, and commercial buildings for space cooling, heating, ventilating, cooking, refrigerating, lighting, water heating, and operating electric and mechanical devices. Modernizing cities in developing countries and increasing per capita income propel energy use in buildings across the world. High energy consumption in public, residential, and commercial buildings creates a need for energy savings. A layer of fiber cement is applied to the building to reduce heat transfer through the walls, keeping the interior warmer in winter and cooler in summer, which makes a building energy efficient. According to the ASHRAE Fundamentals Handbook, fiber cement has an R-value of 0.15, which is better than the value of brick and stone. Many fiber cement products have a finish that reflects light. This reflection helps the building absorb less heat from the sun and keep the building's interior cooler. It reduces the need for air conditioning, saving energy and lowering energy bills. Fiber cement is often put on top of a layer of foam insulation, making the building energy efficient. This efficiency can help homeowners reduce their energy consumption and energy bills. With an increasing demand for energy-efficient homes, houses are valued higher when built with sustainable resources. All these factors drive the South & Central America fiber cement market.
