According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "Rare Earth Magnet Market Report by Magnet Type (Neodymium-Iron-Boron (NdFeB) Magnets, Samarium-Cobalt (SmCo) Magnets), Application (NdFeB Magnets, SmCo Magnets), and Region 2025-2033," the global rare earth magnet market size reached USD 19.5 Billion in 2024. Rare earth magnets are a type of permanent magnets that are made from alloys of rare earth elements. These magnets are ferromagnetic in nature and can be magnetized like iron. They are characterized by higher magnetic field strength and magnetic stability when compared with ferrite or alnico magnets. This aids in product miniaturization, enhancing product performance and minimizing overall manufacturing costs. Since they are also extremely brittle and prone to corrosion, they are most commonly coated or plated with other metals to avoid chipping, breaking or crumbling into powder. These magnets are combined with various transition metals, including iron, nickel and cobalt, to improve their natural magnetic properties. They are widely used in the manufacturing of printers, motors, microphones, separators and automotive starters.
Global Rare Earth Magnet Market Trends:
The global market is primarily driven by significant growth in the automotive industry. Rare earth magnets are widely utilized in the manufacturing of automobiles. This, along with improving living standards, inflating disposable income levels and constant technological advancements in the sector, is providing a thrust to the market growth. Increasing automation across numerous industries has also facilitated the uptake of electric motors, which, in turn, is increasing the sales of these magnets. The market is further driven by the significant growth in the wind energy generation industry. The increasing number of power generation plants, developments in the existing infrastructure and the rising demand for uninterrupted power supply across the globe are creating a positive outlook for the market. The growing application of these magnets across the electronics and healthcare sectors is further contributing to the market growth. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach USD 30.3 Billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 5% during 2025-2033.
