Global demand for magnesium metal will reach 1,085 KT in 2016, representing market value worth US$ 3.13 Bn. Steady automotive sales in the US and Western Europe, combined with a rapidly growing Asia Pacific automotive market will continue to drive demand for magnesium, as manufacturers increase their emphasis on fuel efficiency and emission control. Magnesium’s applications in making automotive wheels, transmission cases, and engine blocks will continue to fuel demand in 2016 and beyond.

Environmental and legislative influences will continue to promote the use of magnesium vis-à-vis steel and aluminium. As lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles gain centre stage in the automotive landscape, magnesium is gaining traction as a preferred manufacturing material.

Application-wise, magnesium alloys and die-casting will continue to remain the largest segments, accounting for 349 KT and 302 KT respectively in 2016. Demand will also be supported by magnesium’s growing applications in iron and steel desulphurisation. Magnesium will continue to witness stable demand from the aerospace sector, owing to its excellent properties as a reductant in manufacturing titanium.

While magnesium’s excellent properties will continue to boost its adoption in end-use industries, slower economic growth and stringent import regulations can impede demand in 2016. Leading players in the magnesium metal landscape are expected to focus on capacity expansions and capacity additions to address these challenges.

Asia Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ) will remain the largest market for magnesium metals, accounting for 518 KT of magnesium in 2016, up from 482 KT in 2015. The region accounts for a major share in overall global automotive and steel production, and magnesium is widely used in these industries. China will continue to be the most lucrative market for magnesium — of the overall global magnesium production capacity, around 85% is concentrated in China, while the remainder is distributed in pockets across the globe.

Key China based players include Taiyuan Tongxiang Magnesium Co., Ltd, Shanxi WenxiHongfu Magnesium Co., Ltd.,WenxiYinGuang Magnesium Industry (Group) Co., Ltd., and Shanxi WenxiZhenxin Magnesium Co., Ltd. among others. Some of the key players based outside of China include US Magnesium LLC.; Dead Sea Magnesium Ltd.; POSCO; RIMA Group; Solikamsk Magnesium Works OAO. Players based outside China are channelising efforts towards ramping up production capacities to better cater to growing magnesium demand across the globe. Over the next two to three years several new magnesium production facilities are slated to become operational across the globe.

The magnesium metal market is a highly competitive market, consisting of tier-1 global scale manufacturers and a greater proportion of small-scale magnesium metal manufacturers catering to domestic demand. However, large industrial operations seek products from reputed magnesium metal manufacturers for demand procurement.

Key strategies employed by tier-1 magnesium metal manufacturers include the provision of effective sales and services, strategic tie-ups with regional distributors/manufacturers to foray expansion in untapped markets, and undergoing restructuring business operations to optimize the use of resources.
