Global Magnets - Demand and Sales Forecasts, Market Share, Market Size, Market Leaders

Study #: W1001 | Published: 07/2019 | Pages: 96 | Individual User License: US$ 5,400

The global permanent magnet market was valued at $12.3 billion in 2018 and is forecast to climb 7.7% annually through 2023 to $17.9 billion, driven by increasing demand for efficient and smaller industrial parts – including sensors, switches, and electronic systems – along with technological advancements, which are boosting sales of more expensive products.

Key Findings in the Magnets Study:

Key Product Trends Through 2023

  • Neodymium, the strongest magnet type currently available, dominates dollar sales, while ferrite magnets, the least expensive on a per kilogram basis, account for the largest share of demand in volume terms.
  • Neodymium magnets are expected to post the fastest value gains of any magnet type, driven by the superior performance they can provide as well as their widespread use in electric vehicles, computers, smartphones, and sensors.
  • China and Japan together produce more than 95% of the global neodymium magnet supply.

Key Market Trends Through 2023

  • The Asia/Pacific region is by far the largest regional market for magnets, commanding 70% of world sales in 2018, due to the presence of China, which is the largest national market by a substantial margin, based on its very large electronics and automobile industries.
  • China alone will account for 56% of all additional magnet sales through 2023.
  • Additionally, China is one of the largest producers of magnetic materials. Although the nation manufactures all of the major magnet types in substantial quantities, neodymium and samarium cobalt magnets account for above average shares of the country’s output, reflecting the easy access to and favorable prices for rare earths that Chinese firms enjoy.
  • In large markets such as electronics and motor vehicles, ongoing efforts to minimize product size and weight while simultaneously adding new features will contribute to growth in sales of neodymium magnets.
  • Automotive-related magnet demand is expected to grow robustly, spurred by increases in motor vehicle output and the number of magnet-using devices installed in the average vehicle. Expanding production of full and plug-in hybrids and electric vehicles, which utilize more magnetic materials than conventional vehicles, will also support market gains.
