Wood-cement boards are exterior and interior building materials manufactured utilizing wood and cement. Fire resistance, freeze-thaw resistance, termite & vermin resistance, wet & dry rot resistance, and thermal insulation are the main characteristics offered by these boards. They are widely utilized in non-residential applications such as gymnasiums & swimming pools due to their sound absorption properties & acoustic performance.
Wood-cement boards accept a wide range of conventional plastering, mastics, and decorative materials. Wood strand cement boards (WSCB) are less susceptible to severe weathering, insect attack, and fungal growth when compared to oriented strandboard (OSD) & plywood; it exhibits structural strength and good durability.
The increasing demand for durable & energy efficient economic housing is the primary factor that drives the wood-cement boards market globally. Growing urbanization, increasing disposable incomes, and rise in the number of construction activities are the other factors that supplement market growth. High costs of wood siding grades, stringent government regulations associated with the cutting of trees, and maintenance are some of the factors that may limit the market growth. However, the rising demand from emerging economies such as China & India and product development will provide potential opportunities for market expansion.
