Rapid growth of residential and commercial construction will augment the product demand
- The construction industry primarily dominates the Saudi Arabian sealants market due to the diverse applications of sealants in building and construction activities, such as waterproofing, weather sealing, cracks sealing, and joint sealing. Moreover, construction sealants are designed for longevity and ease of application on different substrates. The construction industry plays a vital role in the country's economy. However, construction activities decreased in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resultant restrictions and scarcity of raw materials, which was partially restored in 2021, and helped boost the sealants demand across the country.
- Sealants are used in the healthcare industry for assembling and sealing medical device parts with their unique binding ability with various substrates such as glass, metal, plastic, and painted surfaces. Medical-grade sealants offer weather-proofing, heat resistance, and anti-aging properties on the applied surfaces. Therefore, the demand for sealants is likely to witness nominal growth over the coming years.
- The other end-user industries segment comprises electronics and electrical components, locomotive and marine, DIY, etc., of which the electronics industry holds the major share due to sealants' diverse applications in the electronics and electrical equipment manufacturing industry for potting and protecting materials. They are used for sealing sensors and cables, etc. Saudi Arabia's electronics market is proliferating due to the rapidly growing demand for wearable gadgets and consumer appliances. The rapid growth of e-commerce activities, along with the strong market positioning of the consumer electronics segment, is expected to boost demand for the Saudi Arabian sealants market over the forecast period.
Saudi Arabia Sealants Market Trends
Public and private investments for various residential projects to propel construction sector
- Saudi Arabia has one of the largest construction markets in the world, which is expected to record a CAGR of about 2.26% during the forecast period 2022-2028. The announcement of Vision 2030 and the associated National Transformation Plan (NTP) have increased investments in various sectors, such as healthcare and education, to support the country’s economic growth. The government has expansive plans for the development of social infrastructure in the country. The governmental and private investments in different sectors of the country are expected to lead to a rise in commercial building construction activities in the country.
- The Saudi Arabian government has implemented various construction projects, including a USD 500 billion futuristic mega-city ‘Neom’ project, the Red Sea Project – Phase 1, which is due to be completed in 2022, and 14 luxury and hyper-luxury hotels that may comprise 3,000 rooms, across five islands, and two inland resorts, Qiddiya Entertainment City, Amaala – the uber-luxury wellness tourism destination, Jean Nouvel’s Sharaan resort in Al-Ula, Ministry of Housing’s Sakani Homes, and Jeddah Tower, which is likely to boost construction activities in the country.
- The government is aiming to significantly increase the number of pilgrims visiting Makkah and Medina each year. In 2017, the government unveiled plans to build Al Faisaliah, a mega-city for permanent residents, located on the Red Sea coast. This project is expected to provide 995,000 housing units and accommodate 6.5 million people by 2050. All such factors are likely to increase the demand for adhesives across the country.
Rising demand for vehicles to foster the growth of automobile production
- Saudi Arabia had a GDP of USD 28,760 per capita, with a growth rate of 7.6% Y-o-Y in 2022. The automotive industry contributes around 2% to the country's GDP, and Saudi Arabia has the largest car market in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). The production of automobiles in the country is mainly affected by the oil prices in the international market.
- The Saudi Arabian automotive market is predominantly import-based due to the limited automotive production in the country. However, the country has been trying to increase the non-oil economy and has welcomed the establishment of automotive production units in the past decade.
- Automotive production increased by almost 69% in 2019 compared to 2018. The oil prices were low in 2018, which resulted in a decline in the production of vehicles, but in the same year, Saudi Arabia's government introduced a 5% VAT (Value Added Tax) on exports of oil, which increased the oil prices in the international market. The country aims to grow its non-oil economy and increase automotive production.
- Automotive production is expected to increase by 30% in 2022 compared to 2021, owing to increased demand from other regions of the Middle East and Africa. The Greater Arab Free Trade Agreement (GAFTA) gives the country access to trade with 17 countries in the Middle East and African region, resulting in a growth in sales. The private sector has already invested in downstream industries to utilize the raw material advantage of oil and has begun producing oil filters, circuit boards, batteries, cabling, sensors, adhesives, paints, composites, trims, and seats. These factors are likely to increase the production of automobiles over the coming years,

Keyword | Definition |
---|---|
Hot-melt Adhesive | Hot melt adhesives are generally 100% solid formulations, based on thermoplastic polymers. They are solid at room temperature and are activated upon heating above their softening point, at which stage they are liquid, and hence, can be processed. |
Reactive Adhesive | A reactive adhesive is made up of monomers that react in the adhesive curing process and do not evaporate from the film during use. Instead, these volatile components become chemically incorporated into the adhesive. |
Solvent-borne Adhesive | Solvent-borne adhesives are mixtures of solvents and thermoplastic, or slightly cross-linked polymers, such as polychloroprene, polyurethane, acrylic, silicone, and natural and synthetic rubbers (elastomers). |
Water-borne Adhesive | Water-borne adhesives use water as a carrier or diluting medium to disperse a resin. They are set by allowing the water to evaporate or be absorbed by the substrate. These adhesives are compounded with water as a diluent, rather than a volatile organic solvent. |
UV Cured Adhesive | UV curing adhesives induce curing and create a permanent bond without heating by using ultraviolet (UV) light or other radiation sources. An aggregation of monomers and oligomers is cured or polymerized by ultraviolet (UV) or visible light in a UV adhesive. Because UV is a radiating energy source, UV adhesives are often referred to as radiation curing or rad-cure adhesives. |
Heat-resistant Adhesive | Heat-resistant Adhesives refer to those that do not break down under high temperatures. One aspect of a complicated system of circumstances is the adhesive's capacity to withstand disintegration brought on by high temperatures. As the temperature rises, adhesives may liquefy. They can withstand stresses resulting from differing coefficients of expansion and contraction, which might be an additional advantage. |
Reshoring | Reshoring is the practice of moving commodity production and manufacturing back to the nation where the business was founded. Onshoring, inshoring, and back shoring are further terms used. Offshoring, the practice of producing items abroad to lower labor and manufacturing costs, is the opposite of this. |
Oleochemicals | Oleochemicals are compounds produced from biological oils or fats. They resemble petrochemicals, which are substances made from petroleum. The oleochemical business is built on the hydrolysis of oils or fats. |
Nonporous Materials | Nonporous materials are substances that do not permit the passage of liquid or air. Nonporous materials are those that are not porous, such as glass, plastic, metal, and varnished wood. Since no air can get through, less airflow is required to raise these materials, negating the requirement for high airflow. |
EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement | A trade agreement and an investment protection agreement were concluded between the European Union and Vietnam on June 30, 2019. |
VOC content | Compounds with limited solubility in water and high vapor pressure are known as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Many VOCs are human-made chemicals that are used and produced in the manufacture of paints, pharmaceuticals, and refrigerants. |
Emulsion Polymerization | Emulsion polymerization is a method of producing polymers or connected groups of smaller chemical chains known as monomers, in a water solution. The method is often used to make water-based paints, adhesives, and varnishes, in which the water stays with the polymer and is marketed as a liquid product. |
2025 National Packaging Targets | In 2018, the Australian Environment Ministry set the following 2025 National Packaging Targets: 100% of the packaging must be reusable, recyclable, or compostable by 2025, 70% of plastic packaging must be recycled or composted by 2025, 50% of average recycled content must be included in packaging by 2025, and problematic and unnecessary single-use plastic packaging must be phased out by 2025. |
Russian Government’s Import Substitution Policy | The Western sanctions suspended the distribution of several high-tech items to Russia, including those required by the raw material export sectors and the military-industrial complex. In response, the government launched an "import substitution" scheme, appointing a special commission to oversee its implementation in early 2015. |
Paper Substrate | Paper substrates are paper sheets, reels, or boards with a base weight of up to 400 g/m2 that has not been converted, printed or otherwise altered. |
Insulation Material | A material that inhibits or blocks heat, sound, or electrical transmission is known as Insulation Material. The variety of insulation materials includes thick fibers like fiberglass, rock and slag wool, cellulose, and natural fibers as well as stiff foam boards and sleek foils. |
Thermal Shock | A temperature change known as thermal shock generates stress in a material. It commonly results in material breakdown and is especially prevalent in brittle materials like ceramics. When there is a quick temperature change, either from hot to cold or vice versa, this process occurs abruptly. It occurs more frequently in materials with poor heat conductivity and insufficient structural integrity. |
