Cadmium Market Analysis
The global cadmium market size reached 23759 Tons in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 34406.27 Tons, at a projected CAGR of 4.20% during 2023-2032.
- The extensive use of cadmium in the production of nickel-cadmium (NiCd) batteries is driving the growth of the market. These batteries are extensively employed in several applications, such as portable electronic devices, power tools, and emergency lighting, due to their durability and ability to operate under a wide range of temperatures.
- The increasing demand for cadmium in pigments for ceramics, glass, and plastic is contributing to the growth of the market. Cadmium compounds provide vibrant colors and high stability, making them valuable in the production of colored materials and coatings, particularly in the automotive and construction industries. According to the US Census Bureau, construction spending in the United States topped $2.1 billion in 2023. According to industry reports, multifamily residential construction rose by 18% in 2023 and is estimated to decrease by 7% to $131 billion in 2024. Home improvement spending increased by 1% in 2023. Office construction so an 8% increase in 2023 due to the need for Class A office space in major markets.
- The rising use of cadmium in the nuclear industry for control rods, which regulate the rate of fission in the nuclear reactors, is acting as a major growth-inducing factor. Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is used in thin-film solar panels, driving demand from the renewable energy sector as the focus on clean energy solutions increases. For instance, in April 2024, leading solar company First Solar and research institute ZSW announced a partnership to develop new technology for thin film solar PV. ZSW is a research institute with three decades of experience developing copper, indium, gallium, and diselenide thin-film solar technology.

Product Description
Cadmium is a chemical element with the symbol Cd and atomic number 48. It is a soft, bluish-white metal that is chemically similar to zinc and mercury, and it often occurs as a byproduct of zinc ore processing. Cadmium is primarily used in the production of nickel-cadmium batteries, which are valued for their long life and stability. It also finds applications in pigments, coatings, and plating, as well as in various industrial processes, including the manufacturing of semiconductors and solar panels. Despite its utility, cadmium is highly toxic and poses significant health risks, such as kidney damage and bone fragility, if ingested or inhaled over long periods. Consequently, its use is regulated and monitored to minimize environmental and health impacts.
