Saudi Arabia Diethylene Glycol (DEG) Market Trends:

Increasing Demand from Textile Industry

The market for diethylene glycol (DEG) in Saudi Arabia is driven by the increasing usage of the chemical in the textiles industry. DEG is an essential component extensively used to make polyester fibers that are essential for the production of textiles. Since the country's textile industry is focusing on innovations and improvement in product quality owing to the rising use of synthetic fibers, demand for DEG is increasing at a steady pace. Producers are constantly embracing modern technologies that involve the use of DEG during the processing of fibers to increase their durability and flexibility. In response to the increasing focus on economical and long-lasting textile products, the application of DEG is also maximized. Moreover, Saudi Arabia's position as an important player in the international supply chain of the textile industry is catalyzing the DEG demand. Therefore, the textile industry's growth trajectory is directly influencing the sustained demand for DEG in the country. The IMARC Group predicts that the Saudia Arabia textile market size is expected to attain USD 12.9 Billion by 2033.

Expanding Chemical and Petrochemical Innovations

The rise in innovations in the chemical and petrochemical industries in the country is impelling the Saudi Arabia diethylene glycol (DEG) market growth. Since the country is committing to diversifying its industrial base through extensive investments, the production of DEG is growing. DEG is also employed as a solvent in many chemical processes. Saudi Arabia's petrochemical and chemical industries are constantly creating innovative and effective products, and DEG is a vital ingredient in the production of antifreeze agents, coatings, and resins. As government Vision 2030 improves the growth of the non-oil industrial sectors, the applications of DEG are growing in various industries, catalyzing its demand. Saudi Arabian petrochemical producers are investing in newer technologies to enhance DEG production. They are also enhancing supply chain effectiveness to ensure a steady flow of products to meet the growing industrial needs. In 2024, Hector Casas, the principal at Arthur D. Little Middle East, pointed out during a conference with Arab News that the petrochemical capability of Saudi Arabia's is projected to "double within the next 5 years, from around 75 million tons per annum to over 140 million tons per annum."

Growth in Automotive and Consumer Goods Sectors

The increasing application of DEG in the automotive and consumer goods sectors is contributing to the market growth. DEG is widely used in the automotive industry, particularly in antifreeze and coolant formulations, which are crucial for vehicle maintenance and performance. As the automotive industry in Saudi Arabia is advancing with a rise in vehicle sales, the demand for DEG-based products is increasing. Additionally, DEG is used in the production of various consumer goods, such as paints, coatings, and personal care products, which are experiencing higher consumption levels as living standards improve. As the country's consumer market continues to evolve, the demand for products incorporating DEG is steadily growing, thereby driving the market in Saudi Arabia.
