Despite the growing demand for joint compounds, the market is facing challenges in terms of strict environmental regulations and concerns regarding the health hazards associated with the use of certain chemicals in these products. This has led to the development of eco-friendly and non-toxic joint compounds, but the transition towards these alternatives may pose a constraint to market growth due to the higher costs involved in manufacturing such products.
Another major restraint in the joint compounds market is the volatility in raw material prices, particularly gypsum and polymers, which are the key ingredients in manufacturing these products. Fluctuations in raw material prices can significantly impact the production costs and eventually the pricing of joint compounds, posing a challenge to market players in maintaining profitability and competitiveness in the market.
