Permanent Magnet Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2012 – 2018 Permanent magnet is the one which retains its magnetism property after being removed from the proximity or contact of a magnetic force. Demand for permanent magnets observed tremendous growth in the last decade due to its ‘retain magnetization’ property and increasing industrial applications in sectors including automobile and electronic devices. After the recession of 2009, the global permanent magnet market has observed robust growth and is expected to grow at a considerable rate. Bonded magnets hold the largest share in terms of shipment followed by ceramic magnets. Asia-Pacific represents one of the fastest growing markets due to industrialization growth and good economic conditions.
