Manganese oxide (MnO) is an inorganic compound containing manganese and oxygen. It is a blackish brown solid widely used as pigment, catalyst, oxidizing agent and also for the production of manganese dioxide. Indonesia has been one of the major suppliers for MnO around the world due to its abundance of natural resources. The market size for MnO in Indonesia was estimated to be over USD 37 million in 2025.
The demand for Manganese Oxide (MnO) is increasing rapidly due to its uses in several industries such as paint & coating, ceramic glazes, battery materials etc., which makes it an essential commodity across various sectors. With growing industrialization and urbanization trends along with rising disposable income levels among consumers have further augmented the growth prospects of this market during forecast period 2025-2031. Furthermore, government initiatives towards sustaining economic stability by encouraging foreign investments have provided an impetus to market growth over recent years. This has enabled producers from other countries like China and India to take advantage of lower production costs making them more competitive while supplying their output into Indonesia markets at cheaper prices hence impacting prices locally leading them towards higher volatility trend over time frame under consideration.. Additionally, technological advancements are enabling manufacturers to offer more efficient solutions thereby driving up customer satisfaction levels while creating new revenue streams within existing ones.
The increase in demand from end user industries such as paints & coatings, automotive industry, pharmaceuticals amongst others has propelled the growth rate significantly. These industries heavily rely on MnO because it enhances durability performance or serves as a catalyst. Moreover, developing infrastructure projects being undertaken by the government will further drive demand from construction sector fuelling adoption rates among domestic players. In addition, rise in consumer awareness regarding environment friendly products coupled with incentives offered by Government will favourably impact revenues generated through sales over coming years. Furthermore, increased R&D activities taking place by local companies aiming at expanding product portfolio alongside offering high quality grades will spur commercialisation opportunities associated with this business domain.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant effect on the global manganese oxide (MnO) market as production and supply chains have been disrupted by lockdowns and travel restrictions, leading to decreased demand for MnO products. This has resulted in lower prices of MnO in 2025 compared to previous years. Additionally, the reduced demand from automotive, construction, energy, chemical and other industries due to economic uncertainty has also impacted the market.
The major challenge faced by the global manganese oxide (MnO) market is increasing competition from substitute materials such as iron oxides which are available at lower costs than MnO. In addition, stringent environmental regulations against manganese mining operations could hamper growth of this market over the forecast period. Furthermore, rising labor cost in some regions might restrain growth of this market during the forecast period.
Some of the key players operating in global manganese oxide (MnO) market include Akzonobel N.V., Carmeuse Group SABIC Innovative Plastics US LLC., OM Materials Inc., LKAB Minerals AB, The Emirates National Factory for Plastic Industries Co Ltd., Hitachi Chemical Company Ltd., Huangshi Xinhong Manganese Industry Co Ltd., Resco Products Incorporated KMG Chemicals Inc., Saint Gobain Performance Ceramics & Refractories LLC among others.
