·       March 2024: Hardide plc, known as Hardide Coating launched the first in a new range of Hardide Enhanced Components with a JP-5000 4” copper nozzle used in High-Velocity Oxy Fuel (HVOF) thermal spray coating. The tungsten/tungsten carbide-based Hardide® chemical vapour deposition (CVD) coating is proven to extend the operational life of HVOF thermal spray copper nozzles by 5 to 40 times when spraying carbide or metallic-based powders. The ready coated nozzles include O-rings suitable to withstand the higher temperatures generated in longer periods of service.

·       July 2022: H.C. Starck Tungsten Powders (“HCS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Masan High-Tech Materials signed an agreement with Nyobolt Limited (“Nyobolt”) worth of £45m (~USD 52 million) for the development of tungsten intensive battery. Nyobolt Limited (“Nyobolt”), a fast-charging Li-ion battery solutions company that leverages HCS’s advanced tungsten materials in its anode.

·       August 2022: John Crane, a global leader in rotating equipment solutions, supplying engineered technologies and services to process industries, launched John Crane Diamond® 8190, a new material application on tungsten carbide substrate for select Type 8AB Seals using clamped-in mating rings.

Trend: Growing Number of Merger and Acquisition (M&A)

One of the major trends arising in the tungsten carbide powder market is the growing number of mergers and acquisitions to strengthen supply chain, innovation and broader market opportunity. This trend is gradually set to escalate because large players within the market will continue to acquire other companies to cement their market standing, while mid-tier participants will keep on partnering to offer competitive services. The likely outcome for consumer markets will be moving towards more concentration, but it will also be more efficient and technically superior.
