This market research report identifies suppliers like Anglo American Platinum, Impala Platinum, JSC MMC Norilsk Nickel, Lonmin, and Stillwater Mining to be the key vendors in the global platinum group metals market. It also presents a detailed segmentation of the global market by metal (palladium, platinum, ruthenium, and others), by the application (autocatalyst, chemical manufacturing, electricals and electronics, jewellery, and others) and by geography (APAC, Europe, North America, and ROW).

Overview of the global platinum group metals market

Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global platinum group metals market to grow steadily at a CAGR of above 3% by 2021. One of the primary drivers for this market is the rise in the demand for platinum and palladium jewelry. The jewelry industry is the second largest end-user of PGMs in terms of demand for platinum. In terms of revenue, the global jewelry market is expected to grow primarily driven by Japan, China, India, and the US. The durability, physical properties, and aesthetic value of platinum make a preferred metal for crafting jewelry. it is non-allergic and corrosion resistant, making it preferable for jewelry in China, Japan, and India. Palladium, which has similar properties to platinum, is lightweight and has a natural white luster, making it a suitable choice for costly jewelry. Consequently, the demand for platinum group jewelry is on the rise, which in turn, is expected to propel growth in the global platinum group metals market during the forecast period.

In terms of geography, APAC accounted for the maximum market share during 2016 and will continue to dominate the market for the next few years. China and India are among the largest consumers of platinum jewelry. The demand for PGMs in autocatalyst application in the region is increasing due to the growth in the automotive industry. Moreover, the rising demand for PGMs in the automobile segment in developing economies, such as India and China is expected to augment growth in the global platinum group metals market in the coming years.

Competitive landscape and key vendors

The global PGM market is highly consolidated with the presence of a few large vendors, leading to the intense market rivalry. Despite the demand-supply gap, the unstable socioeconomic problems and political issues in South Africa affect the operational activities of all major vendors.

  • JSC MMC Norilsk Nickel
  • Lonmin
  • Stillwater Mining

Other prominent vendors in the platinum group metals market include North American Palladium, African Rainbow Minerals, Eastern Platinum, Glencore Xstrata, Aquarius Platinum, and Johnson Matthey.
