Türkiye’s Construction Market on a Strong Growth Path
Türkiye’s building materials sector has demonstrated steady growth and structural transformation in recent years.
According to industry projections, the construction market is expected to reach $78.8 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1% between 2025 and 2030.
This growth is driven by government-supported urban transformation programs, large-scale infrastructure investments, and increasing demand for earthquake-resistant buildings.
Green and Digital Transformation Drives Aluminum Demand
Government policies are accelerating the green and digital transformation of the construction sector. The promotion of low-carbon building materials and energy-efficient technologies is increasing the adoption of sustainable materials such as aluminum.
With the non-ferrous metals market in Türkiye projected to grow at 5.3% annually, aluminum is gaining importance due to its lightweight structure, corrosion resistance, and architectural flexibility. These characteristics make it a critical material, particularly in façade and roofing systems where performance and durability are essential.
RUSAL’s Broad Portfolio and High-Performance Solutions
RUSAL has significant expertise in aluminum alloys developed specifically for construction applications.
The company offers a wide product portfolio ranging from façade panels and siding systems to roofing solutions and metal tiles.
In addition, RUSAL develops roofing safety components with up to 50 years of service life, designed to withstand extreme temperature variations while delivering high performance.
“We See Strong Potential in Türkiye”
RUSAL Türkiye Representative Office Director Yiğit Kasapoğlu commented on the market outlook:
“We see strong potential for aluminum building materials in Türkiye. Demand for durable, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant solutions is steadily increasing, particularly within earthquake-resistant construction programs and the sector’s green transformation.”
Kasapoğlu also emphasized RUSAL’s readiness to scale its expertise globally:
“We already have successful experience in implementing aluminum solutions in construction, and we are ready to scale this expertise to other markets, including Türkiye.”
Circular Economy and Energy Efficiency Advantage
RUSAL’s strategy aligns with global circular economy trends.
Recycling aluminum can save up to 95% of energy compared to primary production, while significantly reducing CO₂ emissions. This makes aluminum not only a durable material but also one of the most sustainable solutions for the construction industry.
Aluminum’s Strategic Role Is Strengthening
The ongoing transformation in Türkiye’s construction sector is enhancing the strategic importance of aluminum.
RUSAL’s expansion plans reflect both evolving market dynamics and the global shift toward sustainable building materials.
