The global plaster and lime products market valued over US$38 billion in 2011. The Asia-Pacific region accounted for a 55.1% share and was the largest regional market for plaster and lime products globally. Europe and North America were the second and third-largest regional markets, with 21.8% and 12.2% shares respectively. The continuing uncertainty in Europe and sluggish growth in the US are expected to reduce the shares of markets in Europe and North America. This is also expected as demand in the Asia-Pacific region is growing more rapidly, in particular due to rising demand for residential space in China and India. Timetric expects the share of European markets to decrease from 21.8% in 2011 to 17.9% in 2016.
