A composite material containing wet chopped strand fibers, gypsum, and a polymer material is provided. The wet fibers are filamentized within the polymer material. In exemplary embodiments, the wet chopped strand fibers are wet-used chopped strand glass fibers. The gypsum may beα-gypsum,β-gypsum, or combinations thereof. In at least one embodiment, the polymer is a urea-formaldehyde resin. The composite material may contain a facing layer on at least one exposed major surface of the composite material. A method of forming a composite material that includes mixing gypsum with a polymer material to form a substantially homogeneous matrix and adding a sufficient quantity of wet-used chopped strand fibers to form the composite material is also provided.
