Middle East Timber Construction Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By End Use (Residential, Non-residential), By Timber Type (Softwood, Hardwood, Engineered Wood), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2025 - 2033
Description
Middle East Timber Construction Market Summary
The Middle East timber construction market size was estimated at USD 495.0 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 921.9 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2025 to 2033. The demand for timber construction in the Middle East is rising due to the growing focus on sustainable and eco-friendly building practices.
With increasing concerns over carbon emissions from concrete and steel, timber offers a renewable and lower-impact alternative. The shift towards green buildings and LEED-certified projects is creating opportunities for timber in residential, commercial, and hospitality sectors. In addition, consumer preferences for modern, aesthetic, and natural finishes are boosting adoption. The region’s real estate recovery and mega-projects in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar are further driving interest in timber-based solutions.
Key drivers include government-led sustainability programs, rising investment in luxury resorts and villas, and international collaborations introducing advanced timber engineering. Urbanization and population growth are pushing demand for faster, lighter, and energy-efficient building materials, where timber plays a significant role. Growing acceptance of prefabricated and modular timber construction is also helping adoption, especially in cost-sensitive housing projects. Furthermore, the region’s exposure to global design trends and adoption of hybrid construction techniques blending timber with steel and concrete are expanding applications.
Trends include the use of Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT), Glulam, and laminated veneer lumber (LVL) for large-scale projects such as schools, offices, and mixed-use developments. Advanced timber engineering technologies allow high-rise structures, enhancing timber’s reputation beyond traditional housing. Hybrid construction models integrating timber with concrete and steel are gaining traction, improving structural stability in hot climates. Prefabrication and modular timber solutions are streamlining construction timelines, reducing costs, and aligning with labor efficiency goals. The introduction of fire-resistant timber treatments and digital design tools like BIM is further enabling wider acceptance in the region.
