Plasterboard in Egypt: Cairo Market & New Capital Projects

Published August 2026 · XINMAILONG Market Research

Market Overview

Egypt's construction market is among the largest in Africa and the Middle East, driven by the New Administrative Capital, new cities, and tourism development. This creates enormous demand for gypsum boards, ceiling systems, and building materials of all types.

Project Demand

The New Administrative Capital and coastal tourism projects specify international-standard materials: fire-rated boards for commercial towers, moisture-proof boards for coastal resorts, and decorative ceiling tiles for hotels. Compliance with EN and international standards is increasingly required.

Logistics

Alexandria and the Suez Canal zone ports handle imports. The proximity to major shipping lanes means competitive freight rates from China. Egypt's stable trade relationship with China supports regular container services and reasonable transit times.
