According to Chinese customs data, in the first nine months of 2025, China's steel exports to Saudi Arabia reached 4.8 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 41%. Royal Group steel plates are a major contributor, providing high-quality products for construction and industrial projects across Saudi Arabia.
Long Products, Semi-finished Steel Products, and Royal Group Carbon Steel Plates Drive Growth
Compared to the previous year, China's exports of long products to Saudi Arabia have nearly doubled, while exports of semi-finished steel products have increased more than sixfold. Royal Group steel plates are renowned for their durability and high precision, and are increasingly favored in infrastructure projects. However, the sustainability of market demand remains uncertain as Saudi Arabia shifts its focus from the $500 billion "Cities of the Future" project to other strategic initiatives.
