Graphite Category To Grow Substantially At A CAGR Of 6.37% Till 2030

Graphite Procurement Intelligence

The global graphite category is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.37% from 2023 to 2030. 

It is being driven significantly by the rising utilization of graphite in the manufacturing of structural composite parts for aircraft, increased usage in the wind energy sector, and increasing demand for fuel cells and lithium-ion batteries. Natural graphite holds a sizable portion of the global market share because of its affordability, minimal friction, and performance. In addition, due to its properties, natural graphite has a wider utilization in industries, such as the production of lubricants, brake lining, steel, batteries, refractories, etc. Development of these sectors will lead to increased demand for natural graphite, which in turn will fuel the growth of global graphite category.

Graphite Procurement Cost and Supplier Intelligence

Labor cost, transportation, equipment, and warehouse costs are the major key cost components of this category. Players in the category, generally use a cost-plus pricing model wherein the total price is determined after adding a markup on labor and transportation. A graphite concentrate (90% - 95% total graphitic carbon) is sized and filtered into different mesh sizes such as small/fine flake, medium flake, big flake, and jumbo flake. The cost of flake is then calculated depending on a number of variables, including flake size, impurity levels, and graphite concentration. A greater purity (94% or higher carbon content) and coarser large flakes and XL flakes are typically more expensive. In North America, the prices of graphite start from USD 499 per tonne for finer flakes, whereas it goes as high as over USD 2,299 for XXL size.

The global industry is dominated by the Asia-Pacific region as it is the highest consumer of graphite. China dominates the global graphite market in terms of consumption and production, largely because of the enormous demand from quickly expanding industries like solar, steel production, electronics, lithium-ion battery manufacture, and the nuclear industry. In addition, India is witnessing increased production of steel due to rising demand from infrastructure and automotive sectors, and steel production requires graphite electrodes as a crucial part of the manufacturing process. Therefore, the region’s market is anticipated to witness steady growth during the forecasted timeframe. Furthermore, thorough assessment to check whether the supplier meets the operational requirements (i.e. years of service, geographical service provision, end-user industries, etc.) and functional capabilities (i.e. type of graphite, packaging options, lead time, etc.), evaluating the purpose and the type of graphite required for application (i.e. flake, amorphous, crystalline vein), and negotiating prices & terms with suppliers are some of the best sourcing practices considered in this category.
