USG Corp. and seven other makers of drywall used in residential and commercial construction were sued for allegedly conspiring to fix prices for the gypsum board product since September 2011.

Sierra Drywall Systems Inc., a drywall installation company, claims the defendants violated federal antitrust laws and is seeking unspecified money damages for all people or entities that bought drywall from the defendants in the U.S. this year, according to a complaint filed Dec. 13 in federal court in Chicago.
