Saudi Arabia Construction Safety Equipment Market

Saudi Arabia Construction Safety Equipment Market Overview:

The Saudi Arabia construction safety equipment market size reached USD 241.42 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 429.85 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.62% during 2025-2033. The market is driven by the increased focus on employee safety and strict regulations in the construction industry. Moreover, increased construction activity due to infrastructure expansion, including the Vision 2030 initiative, is also leading to a higher demand for safety gear. Further, enhancing awareness of occupational disease risks and embracing sophisticated safety technologies is augmenting the Saudi Arabia construction safety equipment market share.

Saudi Arabia Construction Safety Equipment Market Trends:

Increasing Awareness of Occupational Hazards and Worker Well-being

Increased awareness about the hazards involved in construction activities is impacting the need for safety gear in Saudi Arabia. On May 4, 2024, Saudi Arabia joined the International Labour Organization's Convention No. 187, committing to global standards in occupational safety and health. This ratification mandates the Kingdom to implement comprehensive national policies, risk assessments, and preventive measures to enhance workplace safety, aligning with its Vision 2030 objectives. As a result, there is an immense transition towards ensuring the well-being and health of workers in construction areas. High-profile incidents, along with media coverage and campaigns by safety bodies, have elevated the awareness of risks involved due to hazardous conditions, such as falls, electrical incidents, and exposure to harmful chemicals. Consequently, more importance is placed on implementing top-of-the-line safety solutions such as fall arrest systems, respiratory protection, and high-visibility clothing for protecting workers. This increased awareness is prompting construction companies to implement preemptive measures not only to achieve compliance with regulations but also to enhance workforce morale and productivity. In response, manufacturers of safety equipment are introducing several innovative products aimed at improving comfort and performance, including ergonomically shaped helmets and wearable safety technology. This increased emphasis on health and safety is playing a critical role in fueling the Saudi Arabia construction safety equipment market growth.

Expansion of Infrastructure Projects Under Vision 2030

Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 is propelling enormous infrastructural growth, thereby expanding construction projects throughout the nation. As the government emphasizes the diversification of the economy, large-scale projects like the development of airports, transportation networks, and tourist-related infrastructure are on the rise, which is increasing the demand for construction safety products. One prominent development is the substantial investment in the road sector in Riyadh, where the Roads General Authority (RGA) announced that projects worth SAR 3 Billion (approximately USD 798 million) are currently underway. The region encompasses an estimated 15,000 kilometers of roadway. This surge in construction activity underscores the growing demand for construction safety equipment to protect workers across these expansive projects, ensuring compliance with safety regulations and minimizing risk on sites. Also, the development of high-rise structures, business complexes, and industrial units requires the application of strict safety measures to safeguard the well-being of workers. Consequently, construction firms are investing heavily in personal protective equipment (PPE) like helmets, gloves, and harnesses, as well as sophisticated safety devices like fall protection systems and fire safety equipment. These advancements are deeply related to the nation's effort in enhancing construction site safety, which has recently emerged as a top priority area in the wake of the growth of such huge projects. This trend deeply influences the market for construction safety equipment, with stakeholders giving top importance to the safety of workers to avoid accidents from complicated construction processes.
