Building and Construction Sheets Market Report 2025

The building and construction sheets market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $163.21 billion in 2024 to $174.88 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to increasing urbanization and infrastructure development, rising demand for smart buildings, growing investments in real estate, increased use of eco-friendly materials, and expanding renovation and remodeling activities.

The building and construction sheets market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $227.37 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth forecasted for the upcoming period is driven by a rising focus on energy efficiency, increased adoption of prefab sheets, expanding industrial and commercial construction, rising global disposable income, and growing government infrastructure spending. Key trends anticipated in the forecast period include the emergence of self-healing material applications, the integration of photovoltaic roofing systems, innovative construction techniques, the expansion of lightweight high-strength solutions, and the widespread adoption of smart insulation technologies.

The rising demand for commercial spaces is expected to drive the growth of the building and construction sheets market going forward. Commercial spaces refer to real estate properties used for business activities such as offices, retail stores, and service centers. This growing demand is fueled by rapid urban expansion, with more people relocating to cities, resulting in a higher concentration of businesses and services. Building and construction sheets contribute to commercial space development by providing insulation, structural support, and weather resistance. They enhance energy efficiency and durability while improving the overall functionality and aesthetics of buildings. For example, in July 2025, the U.S. Census Bureau reported that office construction spending in the US reached $42.24 billion in 2024, reflecting a 1.7% increase from $41.53 billion previously. Therefore, the rising demand for commercial spaces is propelling the building and construction sheets market.

Key players in the building and construction sheets market are concentrating on innovative products such as roofing underlayment solutions to boost installation efficiency and prolong roofing system lifespans. Roofing underlayment solutions are protective layers installed beneath roof coverings to prevent water infiltration and extend roof durability. They offer an extra barrier against moisture, wind, and harsh weather conditions. For instance, in February 2024, DuPont, a US-based material science leader, launched the Tyvek Protec PSU Peel & Stick Underlayment. This high-performance product combines advanced material science with a self-adhering design, eliminating the need for mechanical fasteners and reducing labor costs, thereby enhancing weather protection and installation efficiency.

In March 2022, Holcim, a Switzerland-based building materials and aggregates company, acquired Malarkey Roofing Products for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aims to strengthen Holcim’s position in the rapidly growing US residential roofing market and accelerate its strategy for sustainable, solutions-driven growth. Malarkey Roofing Products is a US-based manufacturer specializing in building and construction sheets for low-slope roofing systems.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s recommendations and conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the construction sector, particularly in materials procurement and project costs. Higher duties on imported steel, aluminum, lumber, and machinery have driven up expenses for builders, contractors, and infrastructure developers, leading to increased project bids and delayed timelines. Construction equipment manufacturers face similar challenges, with tariffs on essential components and raw materials inflating production costs and squeezing margins. Additionally, retaliatory tariffs in international markets have curtailed exports of U.S.-made construction equipment and materials, further affecting profitability. The sector must now prioritize local sourcing, modular construction techniques, and supply chain diversification to control costs and ensure project viability amid ongoing trade uncertainties.

Building and construction sheets are flat or corrugated materials utilized in the construction industry for a variety of structural and architectural purposes. These sheets are frequently employed for roofing, cladding, flooring, insulation, partitioning, and protective barriers. They offer strength, weather resistance, thermal insulation, and aesthetic value in buildings, and are selected based on criteria such as durability, cost, and specific application needs.

The primary types of building and construction sheets include bitumen, rubber, metal, and polymer. Bitumen sheets are asphalt-based waterproofing materials reinforced with fiberglass or polyester, mainly used on flat roofs and foundations due to their durability, water resistance, and seamless installation. They are categorized into various functional types such as bonding, protection, insulation, glazing, and waterproofing, and are distributed through different channels, including direct sales and dealers. These sheets are applicable in numerous areas such as flooring, walls and ceilings, windows, doors, roofing, building envelopes, electrical, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and plumbing, and are utilized by various end-users including residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure construction sectors.
