Middle East & Africa Antifreeze Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Demand from Industrial Sector

The Middle East is witnessing a rise in manufacturing activities. Various global and regional companies are pledging to invest heavily in multiple projects in the Middle East, creating numerous jobs as well as taking advantage of the region’s infrastructure, connectivity, and abundant opportunities. According to Doha News, the industrial sector in Qatar has witnessed significant growth, with over 60 new factories opening in 2021. According to the Ministry Report on First-Quarter Industrial Sector Data, Qatar added 23 new factories from January to March 2022, highlighting substantial development in the sector in a short period. Further, Saudi Arabia is rapidly transforming into a global hub for manufacturing and production, driven by Vision 2030 objectives. The goal of the country is to multiply the industrial gross domestic product (GDP) by roughly three times to reach 895 billion SAR (~US$ 238 billion) by 2030, as well as double the job opportunities to 2.1 million and account for industrial exports of 557 billion SAR (~US$ 148 billion). With the growth of the industrial sector, the demand for antifreeze is increasing in the region. Thus, the rising demand for antifreeze from the industrial sector fuels the Middle East & Africa antifreeze market growth.

Growth of Solar Energy Sector

The energy sector in the Middle East is gradually transforming. The region is shifting its focus to renewables as a response to increasing population, rapid industrial growth, and a global drive to reduce carbon emissions. It has one of the world’s fastest-growing populations, with over 280 million people, which has increased by over 60% since 2000. This has resulted in a rapid increase in power demand. According to Rystad Energy’s latest research, renewables capacity in the Middle East is expected to expand in the coming years, with green energy sources overtaking fossil fuel in the power sector by 2040. In Middle Eastern countries, solar energy is becoming increasingly important in energy policies. Antifreeze fluids play a crucial role in maintaining the efficiency of the solar energy system even at low temperatures, preventing the fluid from freezing and damaging the installation. As the solar energy sector in the Middle East & Africa continues to grow, antifreeze fluids will continue to play a critical role in maintaining the performance and durability of solar energy systems.
