Paraguay's construction sector faces unique challenges due to its humid subtropical climate, where extreme temperature fluctuations and high moisture levels often lead to premature cracking in plaster and concrete. Traditionally, builders relied on simple cement mixes, but the increasing demand for urban development in Asunción and Ciudad del Este has highlighted the need for fiberglass mesh fabric to ensure long-term stability.
The adoption of fiberglass mesh for plastering is growing as local contractors realize that standard mortar cannot withstand the thermal expansion typical of the region. The shift toward non-metallic reinforcement is driven by the need to prevent corrosion, which is common in Paraguay's moisture-rich environments.
Currently, the market is transitioning from basic reinforcement to specialized solutions. There is a significant rise in the use of drywall fiberglass mesh for interior partitions in modern commercial hubs, reflecting a broader trend toward faster installation times and higher precision in finishing.
