Nabco National to open three plants in Saudi Arabia in early 2027

Saudi group Nabco National will start up three new plants in Saudi Arabia in January or February 2027, covering paper recycling and conversion, wet wipes, and household and institutional chemical cleaning solutions. The plants, one in the Western Region and two in the Eastern Region, are expected to generate output valued at SAR 150m to 200m in their first year, with half aimed at the domestic market and the rest for export.

Why this mattersThe expansion adds paper-recycling and converting capacity in the Gulf and signals continued diversification by a regional packaging and consumer-products group into export markets.

  • Three new plants to start operations in January or February 2027
  • First-year output valued at SAR 150m to 200m
  • One plant in Saudi Arabia's Western Region, two in the Eastern Region
  • Plants cover paper recycling/conversion, wet wipes, and chemical cleaning solutions
  • 50% of new output targeted at the Saudi market, remainder for export
  • Nabco holds 30-40% share of the Saudi market in some of its product categories, per COO Mazen Faran
