Global Market for Rare Earth is Expected to Reach Nearly 258,000 Metric Tons in 2016

Growth in consumption of rare earths is being driven to a large extent by the utilization of these materials in mechanical/metallurgical applications, primarily for the fabrication of permanent magnets. The mechanical/metallurgical sector is estimated to account for 32.1% of total rare earth oxide (REO) consumption for 2011. This trend should continue for 2012 but no total geological data have yet been accumulated for 2012.
Other sectors of application for rare earth materials are within the glass and ceramics; energy; chemical; and electronics, optics and optoelectronics sectors, which combined account for 65.4% of total REO consumption. Other sectors (such as life sciences, sensors and instrumentation, and consumer) account for a combined share of 2.5%.

Consumption of rare earths is projected to continue growing during the next five years, primarily driven by the energy and electronics and optoelectronics sectors. High-growth applications in these sectors include batteries for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), advanced displays and solid-state lighting.

 RSS Feeds – Advanced materials

The development of newer applications for rare earths in all the significant categories will continue over the next five to 10 years. The high unit prices of these materials represent an incentive for reducing consumption and finding alternative materials, or greatly increasing recycling of the materials. The most cost-effective solution is good recycle and separation technologies for the rare earths elements and their potential alloys.

Research projects that consumption of rare earths will increase at a CAGR of 10.3% from 2011 to 2016, leading to the consumption of nearly 258,000 tons of REO in 2016.
This report provides:

• Identification of the top 10 companies in the market for rare earths, and the rationale behind these selections
• Factors taken into account, including technical innovation, market leadership, and commitment to this market via investment in products

North American Commercial Roofing Market is Expected to Reach $4.6 Billion in 2017

As energy costs continue to rise, the ability of roofing materials to reduce utility bills will begin to play a much larger role in helping to calculate the actual cost-effectiveness of the roofing system.  The rise in popularity of green building has produced a new demand in the market for a larger variety of recycled roofing materials.
Increased demand for reflective and green/vegetative roofing products is driven by environmental concerns as well as federal and state tax incentives from the recent U.S. economy stimulus plan.  These product types are expected to continue to be fueled by increased awareness efforts on behalf of manufacturers, architects and contractors specializing in environmentally-friendly roofing materials.

The long-term expectation for the roofing industry will ultimately hinge on the long-awaited recovery of the U.S. economy as a whole.  Moderate recovery began in 2012, with GDP growth moving back into positive numbers.  Federal incentive programs have taken hold, and consumers are becoming more educated about the programs and tax incentives available to them.  Increased environmental concerns and growing tax incentives are beginning to affect the roofing market demand.

 RSS Feeds – Advanced materials

By 2017, there will be significant increases in green roofing systems as well as energy-efficient reflective roofing product alternatives.  This stimulation of the commercial roofing market will continue to grow slowly, with recovery expected around 2014, thanks to several important environmentally friendly market trends.

Global Blood Industry Continues to Grow with Aging Population

The global blood industry has experienced strong growth in the past few years. It is expected that this growth will continue because of an increase in aging populations in the U.S., Europe and Japan, and also due to advancements in technology and new product introductions. It also includes CD4/CD8 counts conducted on hematology systems.

The U.S. leads the global hematology instruments and reagents market, while growth in demand for hematology instruments and reagents is expected to increase in the Asia-Pacific, Latin American and other emerging markets. The in vitro diagnostic markets of Brazil, China and India are registering significant growth, owed to the increasing population, economic development, increased healthcare spending and higher affordability for private medical care. Markets in Brazil, China and India are expected drive the in-vitro diagnostics products, including hematology instruments and reagents, backed by the strong technical capabilities already present in these countries.

The global healthcare diagnostic testing industry, including hematology, promises significant growth potential, backed by the healthcare reforms being undertaken across various regions in developed and emerging markets, such as India and China. Hematology instruments and reagents have become important for the hematological diagnosis and are growing strong.

Demand for hematology analyzers is also influenced by the development of alternative technologies such as POC instruments, and integrated analyzers, advancements in product automation and highly streamlined lab processes. A number of patients prefer home monitoring devices which has led to a decline in demand for stand-alone coagulation analyzers, and therefore low-volume analyzers continue to be replaced by home monitoring devices. Near patient testing, blood-thinning therapeutics and clot busting continue to remain the market drivers for the coagulation analyzers market especially for high throughput and specialty coagulation analyzers.
