Saudi Arabia Glass Curtain Wall Market is expected to register a 7.2% CAGR through 2030F
The
Saudi Arabia glass curtain wall market is rising due to increasing demand for
energy-efficient, sustainable, and aesthetically modern building facades driven
by large-scale infrastructure projects, urbanization, and the expansion of
high-rise commercial and residential developments during the forecast period 2026-2030F.
According to TechSci Research report, “Saudi Arabia Glass Curtain Wall
Market - By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F, Saudi
Arabia Glass Curtain Wall Market was valued at USD 3.42 Billion in 2024 and is
expected to reach at USD 5.24 Billion in 2030 and project robust growth in the
forecast period with a CAGR of 7.2% through 2030. With Saudi Arabia’s extreme
climate, where temperatures often exceed 45°C, energy efficiency is a priority,
propelling the glass curtain wall market as buildings account for 50% of the
nation’s electricity consumption. Advanced glass curtain walls, equipped with
double-glazing and low-emissivity coatings, can cut energy use for cooling by
25–35%, a critical factor given that air conditioning consumes 70% of building
energy. The government’s Saudi Green Initiative aims to reduce carbon emissions
by 278 million tons annually by 2030, encouraging sustainable construction
practices. In 2024, over 40% of new commercial buildings incorporated
energy-efficient facades, a trend likely to grow as green building codes
mandate a 15% reduction in energy use for new structures by 2025. This shift
boosts demand for glass curtain walls, which offer insulation and solar
control, aligning with national goals while addressing the 1,200 gigawatt-hours
of annual energy demand in urban areas.

Jeddah is the fastest-growing region in the Saudi
Arabia glass curtain wall market due to its rapid urban development,
large-scale infrastructure projects, and growing demand for modern
architectural designs. As the Kingdom’s commercial gateway and a major economic
hub, Jeddah is witnessing a surge in high-rise developments, luxury hotels, and
mixed-use projects that require advanced glass façade systems. The city’s
strategic location along the Red Sea is driving extensive real estate
investments, particularly in waterfront developments such as Jeddah Central, a
$20 billion project featuring iconic skyscrapers, retail spaces, and
entertainment hubs that rely heavily on energy-efficient glass curtain walls
for aesthetics and sustainability. Additionally, the ongoing expansion of King
Abdulaziz International Airport and the Jeddah Economic City project, which
includes the construction of the world’s tallest building, Jeddah Tower,
further strengthens demand for innovative façade solutions. The city’s booming
hospitality sector, driven by its role as a gateway for Hajj and Umrah
pilgrims, is increasing the construction of premium hotels and commercial
spaces, leading to higher adoption of high-performance glazing systems. With
Saudi Arabia’s push toward sustainability and energy efficiency under Vision
2030, Jeddah’s construction sector is embracing low-emissivity glass,
double-glazed systems, and smart glass technologies to reduce energy
consumption and enhance indoor comfort. Additionally, the city’s real estate
sector is attracting foreign investments, accelerating commercial developments
that prioritize modern, durable, and visually appealing glass curtain wall
installations. The increasing adoption of unitized curtain walls, which offer
faster installation and better thermal insulation, is further driving market
growth in Jeddah. Government initiatives to enhance the city’s infrastructure,
including transportation networks and urban regeneration projects, are
reinforcing its position as a key growth market for architectural glass
solutions. As a result, Jeddah is emerging as a dynamic center for glass
curtain wall applications, ensuring its continued expansion in the coming
years.
Based on end
use, the public segment is the fastest-growing segment in
the Saudi Arabia glass curtain wall market due to extensive government
investments in infrastructure, urban development, and smart city projects under
Vision 2030. The Saudi government is actively modernizing public
infrastructure, including airports, metro stations, educational institutions,
healthcare facilities, and government buildings, all of which increasingly
incorporate advanced glass façade systems for energy efficiency, durability,
and aesthetic appeal. The construction of large-scale public projects such as
the Riyadh Metro, King Salman Park, and the expansion of King Abdulaziz
International Airport is driving significant demand for glass curtain walls
that enhance natural lighting, reduce energy consumption, and provide thermal
insulation. Additionally, smart city initiatives such as NEOM, which focuses on
sustainable urban development, are integrating high-performance glazing
technologies, including photovoltaic and low-emissivity glass, into public-sector
buildings to achieve energy efficiency targets. The government’s emphasis on
green building certifications and sustainability is further pushing demand for
innovative façade solutions that improve building efficiency and align with
international standards. Increased spending on healthcare infrastructure,
including new hospitals and research centers, is also boosting demand for glass
curtain walls that offer enhanced hygiene, daylight optimization, and noise
reduction. Educational institutions, including universities and research
facilities, are adopting modern architectural designs with expansive glass
exteriors to create open and collaborative environments. Moreover,
government-led tourism initiatives, such as The Red Sea Project and Diriyah Gate,
are developing large public spaces, museums, and cultural centers that rely on
visually striking and functional glass façades. The adoption of unitized
curtain walls in public projects allows for faster construction timelines,
making them an ideal choice for high-profile government buildings and
infrastructure developments. With continuous public-sector investments and a
focus on modernization, the public segment is set to remain the fastest-growing
segment in Saudi Arabia’s glass curtain wall market.
