National Gypsum Company is a company based in Charlotte, North Carolina, that produces drywall gypsum boards in the US. It has 17 gypsum board plants in the US and presents itself as a fully integrated building products manufacturer. It is a private company, incorporated as New NGC, Inc. in 1993. It is one of the six producers which hold approximately 81% ofthe worldwide wallboard market (Georgia Pacific, Knauf,Continental Building Products, National Gypsum, Saint-Gobain, and Yoshino Gypsum Co., Ltd)

Subsidiary National Gypsum (Canada) Ltd. operates the largest open-pit gypsum mine in the world in Milford Station Nova Scotia. This mine produces approximately 7260 tons of gypsum daily (during full production it is capable of producing over 14520 tons per day), most of which is moved by rail approximately 30 miles to a ship loading facility at Wright's Cove, on the Dartmouth side of Halifax Harbour.

National Gypsum (Canada) Ltd. strips overburden to access gypsum product, and has the means to crush the product to load onto rail cars. Product is transported by rail from Milford Station Nova Scotia.
