The market is driven by rapid urbanization, large-scale infrastructure projects like NEOM, and the focus on sustainable, durable building practices. Rising demand for concrete admixtures, waterproofing agents, and coatings, alongside ongoing residential and industrial development, further accelerates market growth, supported by the Saudi Vision 2030 initiative.

Market Overview

Notable projects include NEOM, a future megacity powered entirely by renewable energy, and King Salman Energy Park (SPARK), the world's first LEED pre-certified industrial area.

Green buildings incorporate sustainable materials and practices to achieve superior surface finishes & aesthetic appeal, with water-based retarders enhancing architectural beauty and providing slip-resistance to concrete surfaces.

The demand for construction chemicals in Saudi Arabia is set to surge as the country undertakes significant infrastructure expansion, structural reforms, and technological advancements. Major infrastructure megaprojects, particularly in renewable energy, are propelling this growth.
