In Oman, the construction sector is heavily influenced by extreme temperature fluctuations and coastal humidity. This environment necessitates the use of highly stable materials like mineral fiber board to prevent sagging and warping in commercial office spaces and government buildings.
The rapid expansion of Muscat and Salalah's urban centers has led to an increased demand for fiber ceiling board that can integrate seamlessly with heavy-duty HVAC systems, which are essential for maintaining indoor air quality during the intense summer months.
While traditional plaster was common, the market has shifted toward modular solutions. Modern projects now prioritize pvc gypsum board for moisture-prone areas and high-specification mineral fibers for acoustic control in luxury hospitality developments.
