Prefabricated Houses in Saudi Arabia
The development of prefabricated houses in Saudi Arabia shows a positive trend, with outstanding performances in exports, project construction, and market sales.
Situation of Chinese-made 'prefabricated houses' exported to Saudi Arabia
Under the supervision of the Shatian Customs under the Huangpu Customs, modular houses (i.e., 'prefabricated houses' among houses) and equipment are shipped to the Port of Dammam in Saudi Arabia. Modular houses have significant advantages. They divide the components of a house into different functional modules, which are manufactured in advance in a factory and then transported to the site for assembly. This construction method is convenient and fast, can be repeatedly dismantled and moved, and used multiple times. It also features energy efficiency, environmental protection, and low cost. From January to October 2024, the value of goods exported to Saudi Arabia under the supervision of Shatian Customs reached 281 million yuan, a 1.32-fold increase year-on-year, involving movable houses, etc. This fully demonstrates the popularity of Chinese-made 'prefabricated houses' in the Saudi market and the expansion of export scale.
Situation of the Saydra Project in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
The third phase of the Saydra Project in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, undertaken by China Harbour Engineering Company, has completed the hoisting and construction of approximately 208,000 prefabricated components for 1,894 villas and successfully capped them. The third phase of the project commenced on May 1, 2024, and adopted a fully prefabricated construction model. All prefabricated components are produced by the first intelligent factory for prefabricated buildings in the Middle East, independently built by China Harbour Engineering Company. This factory can achieve intelligent management throughout the entire process from design, production to warehousing. The completion of the Saydra Project is of great significance. It not only effectively improves the homeownership rate of Saudi citizens and promotes the improvement of residents' living standards but also drives friendly mutual assistance and cooperation and exchanges between China and Saudi Arabia in economic, cultural, and other fields.
Situation of Guangdong-made 'prefabricated houses' in Saudi Arabia
Guangdong-made 'prefabricated houses' actively connect with foreign markets based on industrial advantages and are popular in Saudi Arabia. For example, the modules of CIMC Modular Building Systems Co., Ltd. will be shipped by sea to Saudi Arabia. On July 21, the company's负责人 (person in charge) stated that a new round of transportation in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, would commence this week, further reflecting the continuous expansion and good development prospects of Guangdong-made 'prefabricated houses' in the Saudi market.
