In terms of applications, wires and cables can be categorized as electrical, telecom, and winding wire. Electrical wires and cables include all electrical conductors in the power industry (both HV and LV), automotive, construction, equipment and machinery, or in other words, all industrial applications. Telecom wires and cables include twisted pairs, high-frequency cables, coaxial cables, optical fiber, and a combination of copper and optical fiber. Winding wire has a thin coating and is mostly used in coil windings.

Product Description

With a GDP of over $793 billion in 2019, Saudi Arabia was the largest economy in the region that year. The country’s economy, the second richest country in terms of natural resources, is heavily dependent on oil, its main natural resource. But since the introduction of the 2030 Vision in 2016, the country has determined to minimize oil reliance; it has made significant investments in downstream oil sectors, especially petrochemicals. Thus, with the development of energy-intensive industries like petrochemicals and the development and optimization of infrastructure, the wire and cable industry has grown significantly. As a result, the copper industry has been established in the country. However, with the absence of rich copper resources, developments have been limited. Copper production has mostly been justified with gold as a by-product.

Market drivers of Saudi Arabia’s wires and cables

The increasing urbanization and the growing population will drive demand for power wires and cables as well as winding wire as power demand increases. Turbines and generators, some major consumers of winding wire, are key determiners of winding wire demand. Moreover, it goes without saying that transmission, distribution, and subtransmission networks are major consumers of power wires and cables.

The country’s plans for increasing the share of renewables in the supply of energy can double the growth rate of demand for power wires and cables as well as winding wire. This is because renewable power plants, especially photovoltaic ones, generally use smaller generators compared to fossil fuels, creating stronger demand for winding wire.

Wireless technologies have rapidly grown around the world; they have also had a good penetration rate in Saudi Arabia. Public telephones have mostly been replaced by wireless telecom equipment such as mobile phones. Internet networks have also expanded considerably and part of the country’s internet infrastructure relies on wireless technologies. As the costs related to building and setting up wireless technologies have decreased, the growth potential for these technologies in telecom systems and networks is expected to be strong. However, there are restrictions, such as the lower speed of wireless networks relative to traditional wired ones as well as the sanctions.

The growing urban population and the increasing demand for housing in Saudi Arabia will translate into developments in the construction sector, boosting demand for power and telecom wires and cables. It should be noted that construction is one of the major consumers of both power and telecom wires and cables.

Overview of Saudi Arabia’s wire and cable market

As telecom and power infrastructure in Saudi Arabia was developed and optimized, demand for wires and cables grew. Moreover, energy-intensive industries such as petrochemicals have also been developed, further boosting demand for wires and cables. These have driven capacity developments for wires and cables in the country, making the country a net exporter. In the first half of the 2010s, when infrastructure had significant developments, demand for wires and cables surged; the country turned into a net importer. Demand is expected to grow, putting further pressure on net exports.

Breakdown of Saudi Arabia’s wire and cable market

Saudi Arabia’s wire and cable market is broken down using three factors. In the first breakdown, wires and cables are analyzed in terms of product type: electrical wires and cables, telecom wires and cables, and winding wire. Wires and cables are also categorized based on composition and material type, including copper, aluminum, and optical fiber; telecom wires and cables are the only applications of optical fiber wires and cables. Finally, a distinction is made based on end users, including construction, infrastructure, transportation, and durable goods.
