Iranian Construction Materials Export to Oman via Abrisham Road
Iran’s Construction Materials Exports to Oman
Iran, with a long history in construction and rich mineral and industrial resources, is one of the leading producers of construction materials in the Middle East. From cement and clinker to natural stones, steel, tiles, and ceramics, the country produces a wide range of products at high capacity and with internationally acceptable standards.
In recent years, Oman has emerged as an attractive export destination for Iranian construction products due to its extensive infrastructure and urban development projects. Geographic proximity, positive political relations, and competitive shipping costs have created favorable conditions for Iranian manufacturers to expand their share of this market.
In this context, the Abrisham Road International B2B Platform, as the first Iranian global business-to-business hub, plays a crucial role in facilitating connections between domestic producers and foreign buyers.
Iranian Construction Materials Exported to Oman
Cement and Clinker
With an annual production capacity of over 80 million tons, Iran ranks among the world’s largest cement producers. Iranian grey cement, white cement, and clinker are widely used in Oman’s large-scale infrastructure projects.
Tiles and Ceramics
Iran holds a strong position in the regional tile and ceramic industry. With diverse designs, reasonable prices, and compliance with international standards, Iranian tiles and ceramics are in high demand in Oman’s hotel projects, shopping centers, and luxury housing developments.
Natural Stones
Iran’s reserves of marble, travertine, granite, and limestone are in demand for Oman’s luxury architectural projects and stone facades.
Steel Products and Construction Metals
Rebars, beams, sheets, and profiles are essential for Oman’s infrastructure projects. Iranian steel is cost-effective compared to Turkish and Chinese alternatives.
Building Equipment and Accessories
Products such as faucets, pipes, pumps, and mechanical installations are also exported to Oman for residential and industrial projects.
