The growth of the reclaimed lumber market is being driven by the increasing expansion in the construction industry. Industrialization and urbanization have fueled a surge in construction activities, leading to a significant demand for reclaimed lumber in the building of both commercial and residential spaces. Reclaimed lumber, prized for its strength, durability, and stability, is a common choice for numerous construction projects. For instance, in September 2023, the Census Bureau, a US agency responsible for compiling various data concerning demographics, economy, and society in the United States, noted that construction spending for the month was recorded at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $1,996.5 billion. This figure surpasses the revised estimate of $1,988.3 billion in August. Consequently, the growing construction sector serves as a key driver for the reclaimed lumber market.
