Global Magnet Market: Industry Trends, Magnet Types, Major Markets, Manufacturing and
Applications
Well-diversified and growing industrial applications coupled by the fact that they have limited alternatives
have enabled permanent magnets to represent a global multibillion dollar industry.
Permanent Magnets play an important role in our daily lives and can be found as critical components in
everything from electric motors, hard disk drives, air conditioners, speakers, computers, microwave ovens,
automobiles, mobile phones, imaging systems, etc. As a result of increasing and well diversified industrial
applications, the global permanent magnet market has witnessed robust growth during the last decade. There
are currently four main types of permanent magnets - NdFeB, SmCo, AlNiCo and Ferrite. NdFeB type magnets
currently represents the biggest segment in terms of market values. This segment is also exhibiting growth rates
significantly faster than other types of magnets. In terms of volume demand, Ferrite magnets represented more
than 88% of the total magnets produced. China is currently both the largest producer and consumer of all types
of permanent magnets.
IMARC’s new report “Global Magnet Market: Industry Trends, Magnet Types, Major Markets, Manufacturing
and Applications”, provides a deep insight into the global magnet market. Historical market data (2007-2014)
and forecast (2015-2020) for all types of permanent magnets have been provided on a global, as well as on a
country level. Other metrics such as key manufacturers, applications, drivers, challenges, manufacturing
requirements, raw material requirements, machinery requirements, etc. have also been analysed in this report.
This report aims to serve as an excellent guide for investors, researchers, consultants, marketing strategists, and
all those who are planning to foray into the magnet industry in any form.
