Gypsum, Plastics Rising

North American demand for gypsum products is forecast to increase 2.2Vo annually to a value of $3.7 billion in the year 2001, while foamed plastics will grow 3Vo yearly to over $16 billion.

Improved infrastructure spending will increase the use of gypsum in cement, although less residential construction will restrict growth for gypsum board, the primary outlet for crude gypsum.

The biggest growth among foamed plastics will be foamed urethane due to its insulation and cushioning uses.
