Saudi Arabia cemented carbide market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR over the forecast period as Saudi government has announced initiatives in line with Vision 2031 under which, it plans to increase its non-oil GDP contribution and diversify its economy. The country??s growing construction activities coupled with increasing oil & gas project investments have been driving the demand for cemented carbide products in Saudi Arabia. Moreover, rising applications of cemented carbides in industrial cutting tools are also expected to push the growth of Saudi Arabia cemented carbide market through 2031.
Rising residential and commercial projects due to rapid urbanization have led to increased demand for building materials such as steel, concrete and other mineral resources - boosting the overall construction sector across Saudi Arabia. This is further projected to drive the sales of products such as tungsten and cobalt based metals used extensively in engineering industries (including automotive), mining sites etc., eventually leading towards an upsurge in demand for cemented carbides during 2025-2031. Continuous increase in investment by major players towards development of new oil fields/ refineries across various regions including Eastern Province will escalate usage of related equipments made from high strength materials like Tungsten Carbides. Subsequently, this factor will add impetus towards industry expansion over coming years ahead.
Price volatility associated with raw material inputs along with lack of regional suppliers could negatively impact production costs linked directly with manufacture processes pertaining specific products manufactured using advanced technologies by key manufacturers operating within region ?? limiting profit margins among small scale players mainly involved into export activities ?? thereby hampering industry outlook till 2031 end.
Due to Covid-19 pandemic the Saudi Arabia Cemented Carbide Market has witnessed a significant slow down in 2025 with majority of end user industries being highly affected by it. However, industry experts expect that situation will improve gradually after 2025 with businesses resuming their normal operations backed up by governmental initiatives aimed at accelerating economic recovery process in the region. Also increasing investments towards new industrial projects are expected to boost market growth going forward during our review period (2025-2031).
Some of the key players operating in this market include Kennametal Inc., Sandvik Group., Sumitomo Electric Industries Ltd., Ceratizit S.A., Tungaloy Corporation amongst others
