Description

The Middle East Insulation Materials Market is forecasted to hit USD 4,466.6 million by 2035 and record a steady CAGR of 3.01% during the forecast period. Insulation materials are protective mediums that restrict the passage of heat, sound, or electricity to create stable, efficient, and safe environments. Whether applied in residential spaces, commercial structures, or advanced technologies, they serve as a foundation for energy savings and operational reliability.
Urban transformation is a main driver for the growth of the Middle East Insulation Materials Market, as countries such as Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia are recording urbanization levels above 85%. Besides the construction of homes, shopping malls, airports, and business districts, the application of high-performance insulation is highly demanded to avoid energy loss, which is a major problem in extreme climates. With governments gradually putting into place standards for green building and city dwellers looking for comfort and savings, the use of insulation is increasing rapidly in both residential and commercial sectors.

Key Company Development
Knauf Insulation, through strategic acquisitions and capacity expansions, has strengthened its path towards sustained growth. In October 2024, Knauf Group became a partner with Texnopark to take over the Rock Mineral Wool insulation business of the latter. The agreement ensures a brand-new factory in Uzbekistan equipped with electrically melted cutting-edge technology with the goal of drastically cutting CO2 emissions. Knauf in July 2023 declared a €120 million investment to extend its Novi Marof plant. This will not only increase the production output but also create 70 new jobs and support both the environmental and the growth plan. The construction started in late 2023, and the official opening is expected to be before the end of 2025, a step forward in Knauf’s worldwide strategy.

Major Competitors
Key competitors in the Middle East insulation materials market are BASF SE, Knauf Group, Kingspan Group, Rockwool International A/S, Saint-Gobain, Covestro, Huntsman International LLC, DuPont, DOW, and AFICO.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
