DESPITE THE recession, the chemical industry is finding the green building sector a bright, profitable spot within the overall construction market. US consulting firm McGraw-Hill Construction reported in its Green Outlook 2009 that the value of green building construction is expected to triple to a range of between $96bn-140bn (€76bn-109bn) and by 2013. The market has already rocketed from $10bn in 2005 to around $36bn-49bn last year.
