Rising Demand for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Plywood
The growing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products, driven by increasing environmental awareness and stricter regulations is favoring the Saudi Arabia plywood market growth. Consumers and construction companies are prioritizing plywood made from responsibly sourced wood or alternative materials such as bamboo and recycled fibers. This shift aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 goals, which emphasize sustainability and green building practices. A research report released by the IMARC Group indicates that the construction market in Saudi Arabia was valued at USD 97.8 Billion in 2024. It is projected to grow to USD 135.6 Billion by 2033, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.7% from 2025 to 2033. Additionally, international certifications such as FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) are gaining importance in the country, influencing purchasing decisions. Manufacturers are responding by adopting eco-friendly production methods and offering low-emission plywood to meet the demand for LEED-certified projects. As sustainable construction gains momentum, the market for environmentally compliant plywood is expected to grow significantly in the coming years.
Increasing Use of Plywood in Modular and Prefabricated Construction
The rise in demand due to the rising adoption of modular and prefabricated construction techniques is creating a positive Saudi plywood market outlook. The government’s focus on affordable housing and rapid infrastructure development under Vision 2030 has accelerated the use of prefabricated buildings, where plywood is a key material for panels, flooring, and structural components. On 14th January 2025, NMDC Energy inaugurated a fabrication yard in Ras Al-Khair, Saudi Arabia, with a USD 54.4 Million investment. The facility has an annual capacity of 40,000 tonnes and covers an area of 400,000 square meters. Aiming to complement local capacities in offshore and modular construction in accordance with Vision 2030 objectives, particularly affordable housing development. These initiatives are expected to uplift demand for plywood and products required in Saudi Arabia's rising industrial and housing sectors. Plywood’s lightweight, durability, and cost-effectiveness make it ideal for off-site construction, reducing project timelines and labor costs. Additionally, the hospitality and commercial sectors are increasingly using plywood for interior applications in hotels, offices, and retail spaces. With the construction industry embracing innovative building methods, plywood suppliers are expanding their product portfolios to cater to this growing segment, ensuring steady market growth in the near future.
