Market Dynamics:
- Growth Drivers: The global lab grown diamond market has been growing over the past few years, due to factors such as rapid urbanization, fall in prices of lab grown diamonds, increasing demand from end user industries, fast growing jewelry industry, rising demand for lab grown diamonds among millennials, etc. Positively expanding end user industries, increasing number of manufacturing activities & rapidly developing emerging economies are positively contributing towards increased demand for lab grown diamonds used for cutting, grinding, shaping, polishing, drilling and hard coatings for industrial equipment such as wire-drawing dies, quarrying saws, grinding wheels, machine tools, and mining drills etc. across a wide range of end user industries like construction, semiconductors, electronics, mining, oil and gas, precision machining, etc. So, increasing demand from various end user industries will continue to boost the growth of global lab grown diamond market.
- Challenges: However, the market growth would be negatively impacted by various challenges such as complexities in manufacturing process, increased competition from naturally mined diamonds, etc. There is an increased preference for naturally mined diamonds as these diamonds are seen to be unique, rare, special and one of a kind, in comparison to lab grown diamonds that are produced in bulk and have no uniqueness or supply constraints attached to them. Also, since there is no rarity attached to them, the value of lab grown diamonds will continue to depreciate in forecasted years, negatively impacting the resale value of these diamonds and making it more costly to upgrade them in the future, impeding the growth of lab grown diamonds in the upcoming years.
- Trends: The market is projected to grow at a fast pace during the forecasted period, due to various latest trends such as increasing consumer awareness, rising sustainability concerns, advancements in lab grown diamond production technologies, etc. Artificial intelligence in lab grown diamond market is associated with providing advanced analytics, pricing, grading, and sorting technologies to simplify & streamline the real-time pricing process by analyzing market data, pricing trends, and other factors needed to provide a more accurate & updated diamond pricing estimates, making the process more efficient, convenient and effective for traders, sellers and buyers.
Impact Analysis of COVID-19 and Way Forward:
COVID-19 brought in many changes in the world in terms of reduced productivity, loss of life, business closures, closing down of factories and organizations, and shift to an online mode of work. Lockdown policies, imposed by the government to prevent the spread of virus forced various end user industries to either shut down or run low on production capacity, resulting in lower production and manufacturing activities by various end user industries and since end user industries demand lab grown diamonds for various purposes like cutting, grinding, shaping, polishing, drilling and hard coatings for industrial equipment such as wire-drawing dies, quarrying saws, grinding wheels, machine tools etc., there was a sudden fall in the demand for lab grown diamonds as result of reduced production activities, having negative impact on the growth of lab grown diamond market during the period, 2019-2020.
Competitive Landscape:
Lab grown diamond market has been moderately fragmented due to the presence of numerous international, regional and local vendors.
