Escalating Demand for Advanced Composite Materials for Various Applications Fuels Middle East & Africa Composite Rollers Market

Composite conveyor rollers are designed to handle any loads at the highest speeds in the most challenging environments. For instance, Lorbrand offers next-generation composite conveyor rollers designed to provide high performance and durability while weighing up to 60% less than conventional steel rollers. Lorbrand Composite Rollers are further available in various materials, such as HDPE, ECO-HDPE, UHMWPE, CF-HDPE, FLAME RESISTANT, and FRAS material that is approved for utilization in underground machinery applications. Unlike some other rollers that utilize press-in end caps, the Lorbrand Composite Rollers contain a friction-welded end cap. The friction welding process mainly binds the housing to the shell, efficiently welding the shell together, raising the structural integrity of the conveyor roller, and further eliminating a common failure point on existing composite rollers. Advanced composite rollers consistently show that in most testing environments, a composite roller will outlast steel. This means fewer roller replacements, less roller-inflicted damage to the belt, much lower noise emissions, and significantly reduced power consumption. Thus, the escalating demand for advanced composite materials for various applications is expected to boost the market growth.

Middle East & Africa Composite Rollers Market Overview

The Middle East & Africa composite rollers market is segmented into South Africa, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and the Rest of Middle East & Africa. The region is expected to witness a rapid increase in commercialization and industrialization, which would further boost the growth of various industrial sectors. Supported by the government, Dubai has developed industrial hubs in this region. The key motive of the industrial hubs 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% of Dubai's non-oil trade, which makes it the second-largest contributor to the UAE economy. The government is looking forward to investing large amounts in the manufacturing industry.

The Middle East is experiencing decent growth in the number of industries that are demanding advanced products and solutions. This factor is boosting the composite rollers market growth in the region. Composite rollers are used as alternatives to the conventional steel rollers. Usually, steel rollers are utilized in several operations in the mining fields, paper & pulp industries, textile industries, and other sectors. However, steel rollers are bulky and difficult to transport. Moreover, they generate significant noise levels. Owing to these disadvantages of steel rollers, the utilization of composite rollers is on the rise since they offer benefits such as long life, reduction in weight, minimum downtime, low noise levels, and low maintenance cost.
