According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Hard Magnetic Materials market size was valued at US$ 14132 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 23129 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 6.6% during review period.
Hard magnetic materials, also known as permanent magnets, refer to magnets that can retain their magnetism for a long time after magnetization, and their magnetic properties do not easily disappear even when the external magnetic field is removed. These materials are typically made from substances with high coercivity, such as steel, AlNiCo alloys, and NdFeB alloys. Their internal magnetic domain structure becomes stable after magnetization, allowing them to maintain a strong remanence. Therefore, they are widely used in applications requiring persistent magnetism, such as permanent magnet motors, loudspeakers, maglev trains, and so on.
The upstream of the industry chain mainly includes the supply of raw materials such as rare earth ores, iron ore, cobalt ore, nickel ore, and iron oxide, as well as metal smelting, powder preparation, and magnetic powder processing enterprises. Among these, rare earth and metal resources such as neodymium (Nd), praseodymium (Pr), samarium (Sm), and cobalt (Co) are the core foundation of high-performance permanent magnet materials. Upstream also involves supporting links such as sintering equipment, air jet mills, surface coating materials, and bonding resins. The midstream mainly involves the production and manufacturing of hard magnetic materials, including sintering, bonding, hot pressing, magnetization, and precision machining enterprises for products such as ferrite permanent magnets, neodymium iron boron (NdFeB), samarium cobalt (SmCo), and aluminum nickel cobalt (AlNiCo). This segment has high technological barriers; high-performance magnets have strict requirements for grain control, magnetic energy product, coercivity, and high-temperature resistance. Downstream applications are wide-ranging, mainly including new energy vehicle drive motors, industrial robots, wind power generation, consumer electronics, home appliances, electroacoustic equipment, medical equipment, aerospace, and defense industries.
In 2025, global sales of hard magnetic materials will reach 1.1952 million tons, with a production capacity of approximately 1.323 million tons, an average selling price of US$11,491 per ton, and an average gross profit margin of 20%-30%.
In response to recent U.S. restrictions on exports to China and in the high-tech sector, and to further safeguard national strategic resource security, China's Ministry of Commerce and General Administration of Customs jointly issued Announcement No. 18 of 2025 on April 4, 2025, deciding to impose export controls on seven medium and heavy rare earth elements, including samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium, and yttrium. This announcement clarifies the export approval, licensing management, and related regulatory requirements for these rare earth elements, aiming to regulate the export order of rare earth resources, maintain the stability of the domestic industrial chain, and ensure the security of raw material supply for key strategic industries. Following the announcement, Chinese rare earth producers must strictly adhere to export quota management, while downstream users may face pressure from supply adjustments and cost changes. Industry insiders generally believe that this move will create a certain supply shortage effect in the global medium and heavy rare earth market, potentially driving price fluctuations in the short term, and also prompting international downstream industries to accelerate material substitution and inventory strategy adjustments.
