Lack of awareness among architects, builders, and consumers about the benefits and proper application of earthen plasters. The perception that working with earthen plasters is more complex or labor-intensive than using conventional materials might deter some builders. Earthen plasters, if not properly protected from excessive moisture or physical damage, can deteriorate over time, necessitating maintenance.
COVID-19 Impact
Lockdowns, labor shortages, and restrictions on construction activities in various regions could have led to a slowdown in building projects, affecting the demand for construction-related products like earthen plasters. Thus, the reduced number of COVID-19 cases and implementation of subsequent strategies by government and non-government organizations is anticipated to drive the industry gains in the upcoming years.
