Siding to 2018

• The collection of Construction Material market
  research reports has a new addition of Siding to
  2018 on RnRMarketResearch.com.
• US demand to rise 7.1 annually through 2018
•  
• US demand for siding is forecast to rise 7.1
  percent yearly to 103.5 million squares in 2018,
  valued at 12.1 billion. As is the case with many
  building materials, an expected rebound in
  construction activity will be the primary driver
  for growth. For siding, the link to new housing
  is particularly strong, given that nearly every
  home in the US features exterior cladding. (In
  contrast, most nonresidential buildings opt for
  curtain walls or unclad structural walls).
  Homeowners are increasingly turning to lower
  maintenance, more durable siding materials such
  as fiber cement, brick, EIFS, and stone, although
  all siding products are expected to benefit from
  the forecast recovery in new housing completions.
  Also adding to gains will be continued growth in
  the key replacement market, which accounted for
  57 percent of sales in 2013. Vinyl will remain
  the leading replacement siding by far but will
  continue to be challenged by newer materials with
  better performance characteristics.

Siding to 2018

• Brick, concrete stone siding to see fastest
  growth
• Among material types, brick, concrete, and stone
  siding are expected to see the most rapid
  advances in demand going forward. Brick siding
  demand will be driven by increasing residential
  building construction in the South, where the
  material is most commonly specified because of
  its favorable aesthetics and long tradition of
  use in the region. Moreover, home builders across
  the US are expected to increasingly install brick
  siding because of its desirable appearance, long
  lifespan, and fire resistance. Concrete and stone
  siding is widely used in both residential and
  nonresidential structures. Concrete blocks can be
  utilized to provide functional yet durable
  exterior cladding, while precast concrete panels
  and synthetic stone veneers are specified to
  recreate the look of more costly siding materials
  such as brick or natural stone at a lower
  cost.

Siding to 2018

• Vinyl siding accounted for the largest share of
  siding demand in 2013 however, vinyl siding has
  seen its share of the US market fall from 39
  percent in 2003 to 27 percent in 2013. Vinyl
  siding has faced strong competition from various
  other materials such as fiber cement, stucco,
  and wood seen as more aesthetically pleasing.
  Going forward, vinyl siding will remain the
  leading material installed in the US because of
  its low cost, long lifespan, and minimal
  maintenance needs. However, vinyl siding will
  continue to lose market share to materials seen
  as better able to improve the exterior appearance
  of residences.
• Residential market to regain leading share status
• Residential improvement and repair applications
  were the leading siding market in 2013,
  indicative of the low level of housing
  completions in that year. However, going forward,
  the new residential market is expected to regain
  its leading market position in 2018 as housing
  completions rise rapidly from their low base.
  Residential improvement and repair demand for
  siding will exhibit solid growth as homeowners
  who put off re-siding projects during the
  2007-2009 recession will do them going forward.

Siding to 2018

• Nonresidential demand for siding is forecast to
  grow 6.8 percent per annum to 25.0 million
  squares in 2018, driven by rebounding
  nonresidential building construction. The
  commercial and lodging and office segments saw
  the steepest demand declines between 2008 and
  2013, and will thus post the fastest advances
  through 2018. Improving economic conditions will
  spur the construction of shopping malls, hotels,
  resorts, restaurants, and offices.
