The synthetic diamond market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $28.14 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to customization for specialized uses, expansion in aerospace sector, development in quantum computing, expansion in medical equipment, growth in industrial applications. Major trends in the forecast period include customization and tailored applications, advanced manufacturing techniques, use of AI for precision cutting, advance diamond cutting tools.

The growing demand for diamond jewelry is anticipated to drive the expansion of the synthetic diamond market in the coming years. This demand is fueled by rising disposable incomes, the cultural importance of diamonds, innovative design trends, increased online accessibility, and their appeal as a potential investment. Synthetic diamonds are gaining popularity in jewelry as a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to mined diamonds, providing the same aesthetic appeal and durability. For example, in February 2024, Diamondrensu, an India-based company specializing in diamond-related products, reported that global diamond investments increased to $18 million in 2023, up from $15.2 million in 2022, indicating a notable rise in investment. Consequently, the increasing demand for diamond jewelry is propelling the growth of the synthetic diamond market.

The escalating mining activities are poised to fuel the growth of the synthetic diamond market. Synthetic diamonds, produced through controlled laboratory processes, are an outcome of mining operations. The increase in mining activity is exemplified by the $98.2 billion worth of non-fuel mineral products from U.S. mines in 2022, a notable rise from the previous year. This heightened mining activity significantly contributes to the growth trajectory of the synthetic diamond market.

Technological advancements are a prominent trend gaining traction in the synthetic diamond market. Leading companies are leveraging emerging technologies to maintain their competitive edge. For example, in October 2024, Trent Limited, a retail company based in India, introduced a lab-grown diamond brand named Pome. These lab-grown diamonds possess the same chemical composition as natural diamonds but are produced in a controlled laboratory setting, which makes them more ethical and sustainable. Pome's offerings are competitively priced, allowing a wider audience access compared to traditional mined diamonds. Each piece is meticulously crafted to ensure high quality and visual appeal.

Major contenders in the synthetic diamond market are innovating by introducing lab-grown diamonds to enhance their competitive edge. Lab-grown diamonds, crafted in controlled laboratory settings, are a departure from naturally formed geological diamonds. For instance, in August 2023, Pandora A/S, a Denmark-based jewelry manufacturer, launched pandora nova, pandora era, and pandora talisman collections incorporating lab-grown diamonds. These collections, featuring the same attributes as mined diamonds, prioritize sterling silver or 14k gold settings, exceptional craftsmanship, accessibility, and affordability. This strategic launch aligns with Pandora's mission of democratizing diamonds through ethical and sustainable practices.

In August 2022, Hyperion Materials & Technologies, a US-based provider of solutions for high-performance applications involving hard and super-hard materials, acquired Premium Diamond Solutions SA for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is part of Hyperion Materials & Technologies' strategy to enhance its position as a leading global supplier of synthetic diamond and cubic boron nitride (cBN) products. Premium Diamond Solutions SA, based in Belgium, specializes in the diamond industry, particularly in the trading and distribution of diamonds and related products.

Synthetic diamonds, created in labs, mimic natural diamonds' optical and physical properties, featuring the same crystal lattice structure. They find use in providing durable coatings for various industrial equipment such as machine tools, grinding wheels, and mining drills.

Synthetic diamonds exist in two primary types: polished and rough. Polished diamonds undergo processing without altering their inherent size, shape, or other features. Features of polished diamonds include Color K and Clarity SI2. The manufacturing process involves high pressure, high temperature, and chemical vapor deposition methods. These synthetic diamonds are well-suited for applications in high-end electronics, lasers, x-rays, surgical machinery, quantum computing, and various other technological domains.
