The Gypsum Association is a not-for-profit trade association founded in 1930 that supports the gypsum industry across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Based in Silver Spring, Maryland, it serves member companies in the wholesale building materials sector and seeks to promote gypsum use and the industry's development and welfare. The organization produces industry standards and documentation related to gypsum products, such as levels of finish for gypsum panel products and environmental product declarations. Its members are companies within the gypsum sector, and its work informs construction professionals who rely on gypsum-based materials. A recent development includes the May 2023 launch of an Environmental Product Declaration for type X gypsum panels, reflecting ongoing emphasis on environmental data in the industry.
