Saudi Arabia Artificial Turf Market Overview, 2028
In Saudi Arabian culture, there is a strong appreciation for natural beauty, particularly in outdoor spaces. Saudi Arabia has a desert climate with high temperatures, low rainfall, and arid soil, which makes it challenging to grow natural grass. The hot temperatures and lack of water can cause natural grass to dry out and die quickly. This can be especially problematic in outdoor sports facilities, where natural grass may become unusable due to extreme heat or drought. To address these challenges, many sports facilities in Saudi Arabia have turned to artificial turf as a solution. Artificial turf provides a durable and low-maintenance surface that can withstand high temperatures, heavy use, and minimal watering. This makes it ideal for use in sports facilities such as football fields, tennis courts, and golf courses, which can be used year-round without the need for extensive maintenance. In addition to sports facilities, artificial turf is also being used in parks and residential areas in Saudi Arabia. In urban areas where green spaces are limited, artificial turf can provide an attractive and low-maintenance alternative to natural grass. It can be used to create outdoor living spaces such as patios, balconies, and rooftops and can also be used for landscaping purposes such as creating lawns, hedges, and gardens.

Based on fiber based material, the market is divided into polyethylene, polypropylene, and nylon. Polypropylene artificial turf is commonly used in sports facilities across Saudi Arabia, including soccer fields, cricket pitches, and tennis courts. The durability and low maintenance requirements of polypropylene make it an ideal material for these applications. For instance, in King Abdullah Sports City, Jeddah, this sports complex, which was built for the 2014 Gulf Cup of Nations, features a polypropylene artificial turf soccer field. Furthermore, Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium, Riyadh This stadium, which is home to the Al-Hilal FC soccer team, features a polypropylene artificial turf field. In addition, polypropylene artificial turf is also used in airports in Saudi Arabia, where it is used to create green spaces and provide a more welcoming environment for travellers. The low-maintenance requirements of polypropylene make it an attractive option for airports, where it can reduce maintenance costs and ensure a consistent appearance. For instance, King Khalid International Airport, Riyadh, features several outdoor green spaces with polypropylene artificial turf, including a large courtyard area. Furthermore, Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport, Medina this airport features several outdoor green spaces with polypropylene artificial turf, including a large courtyard area. Polypropylene artificial turf can help conserve water and reduce the need for pesticides and fertilizers, which can have environmental benefits in Saudi Arabia's arid climate. Furthermore, polypropylene artificial turf is also used in residential areas in Saudi Arabia, particularly in areas where outdoor space is limited. It can be used to create small gardens, play areas, and pet spaces.
In Spain, the market is divided into petroleum-based infills, sand infill and plant-based infills. Petroleum-based infill materials are widely used in sports facilities across Saudi Arabia, particularly in soccer fields and other high-impact sports applications. They provide a stable and shock-absorbing surface for athletes to play on. Furthermore, Petroleum-based infill materials are also used in landscaping applications across Saudi Arabia, particularly in commercial and public spaces. They can be used to create attractive and low-maintenance green spaces that are resistant to drought and other environmental stressors. However, Sand-based infill materials can help to conserve water and reduce the need for pesticides and fertilizers, which can have environmental benefits in Saudi Arabia's arid climate.
According to the report, based on end-user the market is divided into sports, residential and commercial. The most significant end-user of artificial turf in Saudi Arabia is sports facilities. This includes soccer fields, cricket pitches, tennis courts, and other sports applications. Artificial turf provides a durable and low-maintenance surface that can withstand the harsh climate and high-impact use associated with sports. Furthermore, artificial turf is also becoming increasingly popular in residential properties in Saudi Arabia, particularly for landscaping and outdoor living spaces. It provides a low-maintenance alternative to natural grass, which can be difficult to maintain in the country's arid climate. Moreover, artificial turf is also used in commercial properties such as hotels, resorts, and public spaces. It can be used to create attractive, low-maintenance green spaces that are welcoming to guests and visitors. In addition, Based on distribution channel, the market is divided into direct sales/B2B, Online stores, Specialty Stores and others. Direct sales (B2B) refer to the sale of artificial turf products directly from the manufacturer or distributor to the end-user, such as a landscaping company or sports facility. This distribution channel is often used for large-scale projects and custom orders. Furthermore, online stores have become increasingly popular in recent years, allowing customers to browse and purchase artificial turf products online. This distribution channel is convenient for customers who want to compare prices and product features from the comfort of their own homes. Moreover, specialty stores refer to brick-and-mortar retail locations that specialise in artificial turf products. These stores may offer a range of products and services related to artificial turf, including installation and maintenance services. For instance, there are several popular specialty stores for artificial turf in Saudi Arabia, including Green Vision, Al Hashem Marble, Duraflor, Al Omrania Trading, Grass Garden Artificial Grass, Al Mandous Trading, Green Diamond, The Perfect Garden, Al Sultan Garden and Pools, and Artificial Grass Trading Co.
Smart artificial turf systems use sensors and software to monitor and optimize turf performance, including temperature, moisture, and wear and tear. This technology can help reduce water usage and maintenance costs and improve the longevity of the turf. Furthermore, in hot climates like Saudi Arabia, artificial turf can become uncomfortably hot, which can impact performance and safety. Cooling systems, such as evaporative cooling or misting systems, can help reduce the temperature of the turf and improve player comfort. Moreover, as environmental concerns become increasingly important, there is a growing demand for biodegradable artificial turf materials. Some manufacturers are exploring the use of biodegradable plastics or natural fibers in the production of artificial turf. In addition, AI technology can be used to analyses data from smart turf systems and make real-time adjustments to turf performance. This technology can help optimize water usage, reduce maintenance costs, and improve the overall quality of the turf.
