The Middle East is characterized by the presence of the major oil-producing economies such as Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Kuwait, which account for a high proportion of global oil production. The demand for insulation materials in the region is expected to be driven by the growth of downstream petrochemical industry. 

In addition, rising product demand for the maintenance & repair of existing infrastructure in the region is anticipated to drive the market over the forecast period The slowdown in oil production on account of the declining crude oil prices is expected to impact the market growth over the forecast period.

Furthermore, a rise in the production of shale gas in the U.S. is expected to result in a declining demand for crude oil produced by the companies in the Middle East & Africa. This, in turn, is projected to limit the growth in the demand for industrial insulation in the region, which is further expected to slow down the market growth over the next seven years.
