The key motive of the industrial hub is to attract manufacturers looking to set up new plants.According to the UAE’s Department of Economic Development (DED), the manufacturing industry accounts for 80 percent of Dubai’s non-oil trade, which makes it the second largest contributor to the UAE economy.

The government is looking forward to invest large amounts in electrical industry.
Market Overview and Dynamics
The bulk molding compound market in MEA is expected to grow from US$ 78.20 million in 2019 to US$ 103.99 million by 2027; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2020 to 2027. BMC (Bulk Molding Compound) are fiber-reinforced polymer composite which are known for their higher mechanical strength, high dimensional stability, excellent electrical properties and many other relative properties. Such properties make them ideal for use in several end use industries such as automotive and transportation, aerospace, building and construction and others. Therefore, the growth in these industries in the region is expected to lead to the growth of the Bulk Molding Compounds (BMC) Market. Demand for BMC is high, and industrialists are eyeing for opportunities to enlarge their business operations with improving economic conditions. BMC promote environment sustainability than other materials such as metals, thermoplastic polymers and concrete and are fully compliant with REACH legislation.
COVID 19 has impacted the major countries of MEA.Most of the countries in the region are under lockdown, which is impacting the bulk molding compound market.

This is likely to impact the chemicals and materials industry in the region, mainly due disrupted supply and distribution chains.
