Dublin, Nov. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Rare Earth Magnet Market Size and Share Outlook - Forecast Trends and Growth Analysis Report 2025-2034" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global rare earth magnet market attained a value of nearly USD 21.99 billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.10% during the forecast period of 2025-2034 to reach a value of USD 52.54 billion by 2034.

Increasing demand for rare earth magnets in electric vehicles; growing investments in renewable wind energy; advancements in high-temperature applications; and focus on recycling and sustainable practices are propelling market expansion.



Being the strongest permanent magnets available, rare earth magnets' performance is significantly better than ceramic/ferrite magnets and alnico magnets (composed of strontium, carbonate, and iron oxide, and, aluminium, nickel and cobalt, respectively). Rising demand for electric vehicles, enhanced investment in wind energy, breakthroughs in high-temperature magnet technology, and an emphasis on sustainable production and recycling are propelling the rare earth magnet market expansion.

Rare Earth Magnet Market Trends

Major factors expected to drive the market during the forecast period include growth of the automotive sector due to technological advances as well as increased consumer goods demand. Due to the growing consumer spending and the increasing internet penetration across the world, the market is being driven by the rising sales of electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, televisions, and computers. Thanks to rising customer awareness and government initiatives and schemes, sales of electric and hybrid vehicles are increasing around the world, propelling the rare earth magnet market expansion.

Furthermore, the market is expected to benefit from the substantial expansion of the wind energy generation industry as a result of rapid industrialisation, population growth, and increased demand for electricity. However, the rare earth magnet market can be hampered by price fluctuations in rare earth materials such as dysprosium and neodymium as a result of China's ban on exporting rare earth elements to other regions.

Key Trends and Developments

Advancements in Wind Energy Technologies

Rising investments in renewable energy, particularly wind turbines, amplify the need for high-efficiency rare earth magnets, supporting sustainable energy solutions.

Innovation in High-Temperature Applications

Continuous R&D efforts lead to the development of rare earth magnets capable of operating under extreme temperatures, expanding their application range.

Recycling and Sustainable Practices

Growing environmental concerns push for the recycling of rare earth magnets and the adoption of sustainable manufacturing practices, reducing reliance on mining.

The various applications of NdFeB magnets include Automobile, Electronics, Power Generators, Medical Industry, and Wind Power, among others, whereas the different applications of SmCo magnets are defence, aerospace, electronics, medical devices, and motors, actuators and industrial application.

NdFeB magnets are expected to dominate the rare earth magnet market share in the forecast period, due to their excellent magnetic properties

NdFeB (Neodymium Iron Boron) magnets are generally considered the leading magnet type. NdFeB magnets are known for their strong magnetic properties and high energy density, making them widely used in various applications, including electronics, automotive, medical devices, and renewable energy.

SmCo (Samarium Cobalt) magnets also possess strong magnetic properties but are typically more expensive than NdFeB magnets. The choice between NdFeB and SmCo magnets often depends on specific application requirements, cost considerations, and temperature stability.

The rare earth magnet market is thriving on account of surging HEV adoption and rising demand for high-performance vehicles

Over the forecast period, the market is expected to benefit from the expanding application spectrum of NdFeB magnets in HEVs and an increase in demand for high-performance vehicles. Magnets play a crucial role in electric motors and powertrains of HEVs, contributing to improved efficiency and overall performance.

Increasing research activities to explore the potential of neodymium magnets for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications are expected to further aid the market growth in the coming years.
