Saudi Arabia Geosynthetics Market

Saudi Arabia Geosynthetics Market Overview:

The Saudi Arabia geosynthetics market size reached USD 121.50 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 181.59 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.10% during 2025-2033. The market is driven by Vision 2030 infrastructure projects, including NEOM and urban expansion, enhancing demand for soil stabilization and erosion control. Environmental regulations and waste management needs are increasing geomembrane adoption in landfills and water conservation. Additionally, cost efficiency, durability, and sustainability trends in construction are further expanding the Saudi Arabia geosynthetics market share, supported by technological advancements and government investments in large-scale developments.

Saudi Arabia Geosynthetics Market Trends:

Increasing Demand for Geosynthetics in Infrastructure Development

The market is experiencing significant growth due to the rising demand for advanced construction materials in infrastructure projects. The price of Saudi black concrete blocks for 20 cm reached SAR 1,756.56 (approximately USD 468.30) for 1,000 units during March 2025. With increased material costs, Saudi Arabia's geosynthetics industry comes under increased pressure to inflate project budgets and purchasing of materials with constant infrastructure construction work underway. The government’s Vision 2030 initiative is driving large-scale developments, including roads, bridges, and urban expansion, where geosynthetics are essential for soil stabilization, erosion control, and reinforcement. The need for durable and cost-effective solutions to enhance construction efficiency is boosting the adoption of geotextiles, geomembranes, and geogrids. Additionally, the expansion of mega-projects such as NEOM, the Red Sea Project, and Qiddiya is further accelerating market demand. Geosynthetics help reduce construction time and maintenance costs, making them a preferred choice for engineers and contractors. With Saudi Arabia focusing on sustainable and resilient infrastructure, the geosynthetics market is expected to grow steadily, supported by technological advancements and increased investment in civil engineering projects.

Growing Emphasis on Environmental Sustainability and Waste Management

The increasing use of these materials in environmental protection and waste management applications is also supporting the Saudi Arabia geosynthetics market growth. Geomembranes are widely used in landfill lining, wastewater treatment, and mining operations to prevent soil and water contamination. The Kingdom’s push toward sustainability under Vision 2030 has led to stricter environmental regulations, driving the need for effective containment solutions. Geosynthetics also play a crucial role in water conservation projects, such as canal lining and reservoir protection, addressing the country’s water scarcity challenges. In 2080, Saudi Arabia could be hit by absolute water scarcity for over 25% of its territorial area, with groundwater levels possibly declining by up to 8 cm per year based on adverse climate projections (SSP 5 RCP 8.5). Considering that demand from agriculture formerly amounted to 19.27 BCM and considering that more than 61% of the country's water supply relies on non-renewable groundwater sources, this scenario underscores the important necessity of putting geosynthetics-based systems of water saving into practice during future infrastructure development and urban development. Furthermore, the recycling and reuse of materials in construction align with circular economy goals, enhancing the demand for eco-friendly geosynthetic products. As industries prioritize environmental compliance and sustainable practices, the geosynthetics market is poised for expansion, with innovations in material science further supporting this growth.
