Countries Insights

Imports of machinery, tools, and materials for fastener manufacturing and other sectors have stifled innovation in most regions. The UAE and Saudi Arabia lack suitable machinery due to their short industrial histories. Both nations are advanced in construction, but most industrial areas, including the fastener business, are not. Their fastener sector is too dependent on foreign technology, supplies, and equipment.

UAE fastener exports exceeded USD 217 million. Last year, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain, Iraq, and Iran received 70% of UAE fasteners. Thus, the UAE is the region's biggest fastener exporter. KSA exported less than USD 12 million in fasteners in 2018, 5% of UAE's total. This proves that the UAE is a regional export hub. UAE fastener exports to Saudi Arabia exceeded 20% in 2018.

Due to rising government financing for large-scale infrastructural and residential projects in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, fastener demand may rise. The UAE imports the most fasteners and exports the most. UAE imported over USD 356 million in fasteners from China, India, the US, Germany, the UK, and Taiwan last year. Saudi Arabia, the region's second-largest market, imported fasteners worth USD 276 million last year.

China, the US, India, Japan, the UK, Germany, and Taiwan export the most to Saudi Arabia.Last year, Saudi Arabia imported more fastening machinery than the UAE. Saudi Arabia imported more machinery than the UAE in 2018. KSA exported 1.7 million, while the UAE exported 2.5 million.

Overall, physical capital investment, trade exposure, manufacturing sector competitiveness, and strong media promotion drive this market's expansion in the Middle East. Manufacturing is growing in the UAE and Saudi Arabia as large industrial parks are built.
