GCC Decorative Laminates Market

Growth Drivers

Rise in Demand for Residential Infrastructure

The real estate industry of the GCC countries is witnessing substantial growth owing to the rising population and increasing disposable income of the residents. The demand for apartments, villas, land houses, and condominiums is going strong, particularly in Saudi Arabia and UAE. Cities in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and in Saudi Arabia and places in neighboring nations, such as Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman, have all seen an increase in the number of high-end homes from the world's elite. As a result, the real estate industry is attracting significant investments from the private players and the construction of residential complexes is bolstering, which is anticipated to drive the market demand for decorative laminates during the forecast period.

Restraints

High Cost of Decorative Laminates

Laminates are available in countless colors, designs, and thicknesses. Pre-Attached Underlay, Glueless Click, and other factors directly affect the pricing. The use for which a laminate is installed determines how much it costs. Cabinets with an acrylic finish are more expensive than laminate cabinets because of factors including ease of upkeep, cleanliness, and overall appearance. As a result, the GCC decorative laminates market's expansion is significantly constrained.

Impact of COVID-19 on GCC Decorative Laminates Market

The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic considerably limited the growth of the GCC decorative laminates market. Global production procedures, trade, and supply networks for minerals and chemicals have all been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, manufacturers of decorative high-pressure laminates had to shut down their plants or operate them at subpar production levels in order to prevent the coronavirus from spreading. In addition, a temporary suspension of construction activities owing to a labor shortage significantly reduced market demand for decorative laminates.

Since there is no light reflection, the color also seems smoother because of greater color constancy, which is making matte decorative laminates a popular choice among consumers.
