Key Market Trends
Packaging Industry to Dominate the Market
- Packaging accounts for the largest application segment in the Middle Eastern market. The prime reasons for the growing application of engineering plastics, in the packaging segment, are better wear and chemical resistance, ease of molding, recyclability, puncture resistance, and high mechanical strength.
- Some of the major applications of engineering plastics, in the packaging segment, are as follows: packaging of bottled water, flexible packaging, such as sausage skin, flexible foils, such as shopping bag.
- Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is one of the plastics majorly used for packaging purposes, mostly in the food and beverage industry. Portability, design flexibility, ease of cleaning, light weight, and protection against moisture, are a few properties of PET, which makes it suitable for packaging purposes. In addition, low handling hazards, low toxicity, and absence of bisphenol A (BPA) and heavy metals are some of the other factors that allow PET to be used for food packaging.
- PETs are used for making clamshells, bakery and take-out containers, microwaveable food trays, carbonated soft drink bottles, and other packages. Other applications include packaging materials for cooking oils, shampoo, hand wash, and more products.
- Polyamide is another major engineering plastic that finds major application in the packaging sector. Bi-axially oriented and non-oriented polyamide films are used in medical and food packaging, owing to the former's high impact strength and good heat resistance.
Saudi Arabia to Dominate the Middle-East and African Market

- Though the electronics market in Saudi Arabia slowed down in the recent past, it has good market potential with the rising population and demand for electronic goods, such as smartphones, LED and LCD TVs, tablets, electrical machines and equipment, and washing machines.
- Government and private investments in different sectors in the country are expected to lead the increase in industrial and commercial building and construction activity. The country's primary growth in construction has been largely powered by the massive investments done by the government and increased inflow of FDI.
- Such growth in various industries is expected to drive the market for thermoplastics in Middle Eastern region during the forecast period.
