[198 Pages Report] The Hygroscopic Building Material Market size was estimated at USD 1.11 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 1.19 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 6.92% to reach USD 1.78 billion by 2030.
Hygroscopic building materials are a construction product category that can absorb, retain, and release moisture from the surrounding environment. These materials can effectively manage indoor humidity levels by absorbing excess moisture during high humidity and releasing it back into the atmosphere when conditions become drier. Hygroscopic building materials contribute to healthier indoor environments, improved energy efficiency, enhanced durability of structures, and better overall building performance. These materials help maintain comfortable indoor conditions while minimizing risks associated with excessive indoor humidity, such as mold growth and condensation on surfaces leading to damage to finishes and equipment or unfavorable living conditions for occupants. Utilizing hygroscopic building materials can contribute to the durability and longevity of structures. These materials help to prevent issues such as rotting or warping of structural components, corrosion of metals, or premature degradation of finishes by maintaining an optimal balance between humidity and dryness.
Moreover, increasing manufacturers’ focus on sustainable construction practices fuels interest in energy-efficient solutions that reduce heating and cooling loads. The implementation of stringent building codes and green certifications by various governments further necessitates the adoption of these advanced materials. The growing awareness about indoor air quality (IAQ) and its impact on human health is prompting architects, builders, and homeowners to incorporate hygroscopic materials into their project designs. However, high initial costs and limited understanding of these materials significantly impede the adoption of hygroscopic building materials. In addition, novel nanotechnology-based approaches have enabled the development of ultra-thin coatings with enhanced moisture buffering capabilities. Research on bio-based materials such as mycelium has opened up new possibilities for eco-friendly alternatives with superior hygroscopic performance.
