The reports states the widespread use of copper in air conditioners, from window units to large chillers, (which is a huge market in MENA countries, especially GCC), and the low per capita consumption of copper in developing nations are indicative of the market’s promising future.

“Copper has excellent thermal conductivity, resistance to corrosion, and anti-microbial properties that cannot be replaced by any other material,” said Technavio metals and minerals research expert Chandrakumar B J.

The seamless copper tubes in MENA market is divided into market segmentation by country. The four major countries in this region are UAE, South Africa, Iran, and Egypt.

Iran and the South Africa are the largest markets for seamless copper tubes in MENA. The concentration of AC manufacturers and HVAC and MEP contractors and their corresponding moderate to high demand for seamless copper tubes, has transformed the South Africa into a buoyant market.

“South Africa’s ACR market is likely to continue its growth momentum, spurred by massive government spending on mega projects, social housing, and educational development schemes,” said Chandrakumar. “The government’s decision to build 500,000 units to tackle the housing supply problem will stimulate the demand for all consumer durable products, including air conditioners, boosting consumption of seamless copper tubes in the HVACR segment,” he added.

Iran has the largest market share of any country in the region, just edging out South Africa. 70% of the market in Iran is met by local supplier Qaem Copper. The country’s copper tube market is being driven by the air conditioning segment which accounts for 58% of the country’s copper tube consumption. The air conditioning sector is one that should never go out of business in this region.
