The Global Metallic Glasses Market was valued at USD 1.8 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% to reach USD 3.3 billion by 2034, driven by the unique properties of metallic glasses, which combine high tensile strength with excellent corrosion resistance and malleability. These materials' amorphous atomic structure allows them to perform exceptionally well under challenging conditions, making them ideal for structural strength and precision. They are useful in industries requiring durability and resistance to wear, such as electrical and magnetic components. As industries continue to demand more advanced and efficient materials, the versatile applications of metallic glasses are gaining traction.
The market benefits from increased demand in the electromagnetic and electronics sectors. Metallic glasses' low power dissipation and high efficiency make them suitable for magnetic cores, sensors, and transformers. Moreover, advancements in manufacturing technologies, such as rapid solidification and physical vapor deposition, are reducing production costs and enabling scalable operations. The biomedical sector is another key growth area for metallic glasses, as their biocompatibility and mechanical strength make them ideal for medical implants and surgical tools. Their resistance to bacteria and wear adds to their appeal for healthcare applications.
In 2024, the metal-metalloid segment of the metallic glasses market was valued at USD 1.1 billion and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.7% through 2034 fueled by the rising demand for lightweight and cost-effective materials, particularly in industries such as consumer electronics, augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR), and medical devices. These materials offer the perfect balance of strength and flexibility, making them ideal for the miniaturized components in these fast-evolving sectors. As technological advancements push for smaller, more efficient products, the adoption of metal-metalloid glasses is expected to accelerate across various applications.
The ribbons segment, valued at USD 700 million in 2024, is also projected to experience a growth rate of 5.1% through 2034, attributed to their exceptional magnetic properties, which make them particularly suitable for use in transformers and magnetic sensors. As the demand for advanced electronic systems, energy-efficient equipment, and more precise sensor technologies increases, ribbons made from metallic glasses will continue to play a crucial role in these applications. Their ability to perform under demanding conditions while maintaining high performance makes them an asset for industries focusing on power generation, energy distribution, and high-tech sensing technologies.
