1. Global Asbestos Free (Non-asbestos) Fiber Cement Boards market size was valued at USD 17,150 million in 2024. The market is projected to grow from USD 18,250 million in 2025 to USD 24,030 million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period.
  2. Asbestos-free fiber cement boards are advanced construction materials engineered as a safer replacement for traditional asbestos-containing products. These composite boards combine Portland cement, silica, and cellulose fibers with specialized additives, manufactured through autoclaving processes that enhance structural integrity and weather resistance. The absence of asbestos eliminates carcinogenic risks while maintaining the material's inherent fireproof and moisture-resistant properties.
