Global Tungsten Market is valued at approximately USD 5.1 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a compounded annual growth rate of more than 8.00 % over the forecast period 2023-2030. Tungsten is a very strong and hard metal that is often used in industries because it can withstand high temperatures and is very durable it has a very high melting point and is often used to make things such as light bulb filaments, electrical appliances, automotive parts, and so on. Tungsten metal is used by various industries such as Aerospace, Military, Automotive, and so on for manufacturing various equipment because of its unique properties such as high melting point, exceptional hardness & strength and excellent thermal & electricity conductivity. The growth of the Global Tungsten Market is to be witnessed because of various factors such as the increasing use of electronic devices and the increasing use of renewable energy. Moreover, the market can witness sharp growth aiming at the factors such as increasing industrialization and development of the aerospace industry. However, the Limited Supply of tungsten globally may hamper the growth of the market.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) in 2022, revealed that renewable energy sources, including solar and wind power, along with nuclear power, are expected to fulfil over 90% of the rise in global energy demand by 2025. The government now planning to develop various renewable energy power plants such as Solar power plants, Hydropower plants which might give rise to the Global Tungsten Market that is used in manufacturing industry. According to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) in 2023, the global manufacturing output had maintained a stable year-on-year growth rate of between 3 and 4 percent. Similarly, according to the Indian Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF) in 2023, electronics manufacturing saw an exponential growth to reach USD 67.3 billion in 2020-2021 which emerge as to be the growth factor for the Global Tungsten Market. However, a limited supply of tungsten can harm the overall growth of the market as tungsten is a rare metal found on some specific parts of the Earth.
The key regions considered for the Global Tungsten Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America region dominates the market due to the largest market share in terms of industrialization and aerospace as the consumption of tungsten in the North America region is proportionately high according to World Mining Data. Asia Pacific region emerges as to be the fastest growing region, according to Statista, China is the largest producer and supplier of tungsten to the world that elevates the growth of the Asia Pacific region owing to fact that the region is able to fulfill the demand of tungsten globally with less cost of labor.
