With successful appearances at some of Saudi Arabia’s biggest construction shows, including consecutive appearances at the Big 5 Construct Saudi Arabia and the Saudi Build, ISL has not only strengthened its presence in the region but also secured vendor registration for multiple high-profile Saudi Giga-Projects, showcasing the company’s commitment to quality and innovation.

Strengthening Ties with Saudi Arabia at Big 5 Construct Saudi Arabia 2025

Big 5 Construct Saudi Arabia is the largest construction industry event in the Kingdom, bringing together global leaders, suppliers, and developers. ISL’s second consecutive participation at this prestigious event in 2025 underscored its commitment to the Saudi market. The company leveraged this opportunity to network with major players in the construction sector, demonstrating how its high-quality flat steel solutions align with Saudi Arabia’s infrastructural ambitions.

A key enabler of ISL’s successful market entry has been its SASO (Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization) Saudi Quality Mark certification, which has facilitated seamless integration into the Saudi construction supply chain. By meeting the rigorous standards set by the Saudi Quality Mark, ISL demonstrates its commitment to high-quality production and safety.
