Market Insights & Analysis: Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market (2025-30):

The Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market size is valued at around USD 712 million in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 936 million by 2030. Along with this, the market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 5.62% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-30. The market is significantly growing due to several growth factors, including the rapid construction, infrastructure development, growing need for packaging due to the rising penetration of e-commerce in the country, and the rapid inclination towards renewable sources of energy, including the installation of photovoltaic cells, solar panels, and the adoption of sustainable & biodegradable formulation use to prepare adhesives and sealants. One of the prime growth factors is the rising manufacturing of various medical devices in the country, such as dental implants, catheters, dialysis tubes, cyanoacrylates, and many more, which are significantly increasing the demand for adhesives and sealants.

Additionally, the robust growth of e-commerce in the country is increasing the demand for high-quality packaging, which is further contributing to the growth of high-integrity adhesives and sealants in the market. Also, the strategic partnerships between the local manufacturers or distributors and the global key players are offering lucrative growth opportunities to this market, as the joint ventures are further strengthening the supply chains of these kinds of products. For instance, the partnership between the Al-Hejailan Group and Dow Inc. aims to increase the market growth in Saudi Arabia. Moreover, the adoption of green and biodegradable adhesives and sealants, with the advancements in the production methods, including smart-release and encapsulation systems, is actively transforming the market growth. However, the stringent regulations implemented by the government and the import dependence on international markets are hindering the growth of the Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market.

Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market Scope:

Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market Driver:

Surging Infrastructure Development – The market growth is driven by the rising building construction and infrastructure development in the country, backed by the government support under various initiatives such as Vision 2030. For instance, the Qiddiya Entertainment City is almost 90% completed, which has utilized a substantial amount of adhesives and sealants in fixing ceramic tiles, floor coverings, ceilings, etc.

Similarly, the rising inbound tourism is increasing in the country due to its cultural heritage, increasing the demand for hospitality settings, including hotels, restaurants, resorts, etc., which is fuelling the market growth. For instance, the Regis Red Sea Resort (2023) alone offers about 91 villas in the Red Sea coast area, while Nujuma, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve (2023), provides 62 villas, which are actively accelerating the demand for sealants and adhesives in bulk quantities. These projects have been driving the demand for adhesives and sealants in sufficient quantities.

Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market Opportunity:

Growing E-commerce Sector – The rapidly growing e-commerce penetration and online retailing in the country are offering ample growth opportunities in this market. This is due to rising demand for packaging, along with this expansion, which will further increase the requirement for high-quality adhesives and sealants in large quantities in the country.

For instance, the number of e-commerce users has increased to approximately 35 million in 2025, accounting for a penetration rate of about 65%, which is expected to rise by 75% by the end of 2027. This has increased the demand for secure, strong, and durable packaging materials, which in turn has heightened the need for high-quality adhesives to maintain the integrity of the packaging, thereby contributing to the potential growth of this market.

Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market Challenge:

Heavy Reliance on Imports & Strict Government Regulations – The Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market is facing several challenges, including limited production plants, which resulted in the high dependence of Saudi Arabia on imports for adhesives and sealants products, which is another major challenge in this market. Saudi Arabia has only 13-14 recognized & active manufacturing plants, resulting in a high dependence on imports from other countries, such as China, Japan, Germany, the US, etc. Due to this scarcity, the country frequently experiences delays during supply chain disruptions, political issues, natural disasters, etc., which ultimately leads to the shortage of cleaners in the country, thus restraining the market growth.

Moreover, maintaining the permissible quantities of volatile organic compounds in the formulations of adhesives, which was announced by the Saudi Arabian government, is challenging for the manufacturers, further hindering market growth.

Saudi Arabia Adhesives and Sealants Market Trend:

Rising Adoption of Plant-Based Adhesives & Sealants – The adoption of organic adhesives and sealants in Saudi Arabia is gaining momentum. This is due to the rising environmental concerns, and these biodegradable and green cleaners offer more benefits as compared to the traditional adhesives, which were harsh chemicals, harmful to public health. Additionally, the government of the country is encouraging the use of biodegradable and greener products to achieve sustainability goals for environmental and human health protection by introducing sustainability standards and protocols.

Moreover, several key companies, such as Henkel, Polycom, and many more, have actively started manufacturing organic and sustainable adhesives and sealant products, such as LOCTITE® NSP 7810, etc. These kinds of product launches are actively shaping the growth trajectory of the market.
