Saudi Arabia Construction Materials Market

Saudi Arabia Construction Materials Market Overview:

The Saudi Arabia construction materials market size reached USD 11.80 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 16.23 Million by ​2033​, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.60% during ​2025-2033​. The market is being driven by rapid urbanization, government infrastructure developments driven by Vision 2030, foreign investments, and an upsurge in demand for sustainable construction solutions. Expansion in residential demand and construction technologies also contributes significantly to growth in the market. These drivers are augmenting Saudi Arabia construction materials market share.

Saudi Arabia Construction Materials Market Trends:

Adoption of Advanced Construction Technologies

The Saudi Arabian construction sector is increasingly embracing cutting-edge technology to maximize efficiency and sustainability. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is being employed for accurate planning and resource allocation, minimizing material wastage and project duration. Further, the application of 3D printing in the construction of building elements enables intricate designs with minimum use of materials. These technologies, not only make construction procedures smoother, but they also help in minimizing environmental footprints, which fits in with the sustainability goals of the kingdom. With these technologies gaining more prominence, they are likely to be central to the Saudi Arabia construction materials market growth. For instance, in February 2025, the Public Investment Fund (PIF) acquired a 30% stake in Masdar Building Materials through a capital increase, aiming to boost Saudi Arabia's construction sector. The investment will enhance digital transformation, expand operations, and strengthen local supply chains. This move supports Vision 2030 and promotes private sector growth.

Emphasis on Sustainable and Green Building Materials

Sustainability is becoming a pillar of Saudi construction practices. The government is encouraging the use of green materials through incentives and regulations, urging developers to use green building methods. Low-carbon paints, energy-saving insulation, and recycled aggregate materials are popular alternatives. These green materials not only minimize the environmental impact of construction projects but also result in cost savings over the long term through efficiency in consumption. The growing need for green buildings is having a profound impact on the Saudi Arabia construction materials market growth, with stakeholders aiming to satisfy both regulatory requirements and consumer demand for sustainability. For instance, in October 2024, City Cement and Next Generation SCM formed a joint venture in Saudi Arabia to produce low-carbon concrete using calcined clay, a technology capable of cutting CO2 emissions by up to 58%. The first production facility is set to open in Riyadh by the third quarter of 2025, with a targeted output of 350,000 tons in its initial year. This initiative supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 by advancing sustainable infrastructure and reducing the environmental footprint of construction.
