Solutions

The global supply chain is vulnerable. We secure vital industries by reshaping domestic magnet production.

Secure.

Zero rare earths. Zero critical minerals. The raw materials for our magnets are globally abundant and 100% domestically sourced. This creates a permanently secure supply chain.

Powerful.

Advanced performance. Iron Nitride has the greatest flux of any material known and unlocks fundamental advantages in device design. Our magnets make technologies better.

Scalable.

Inherently scalable. From nanoparticles to finished magnets, our streamlined process scales to meet demand using equipment proven in industry. More magnets is as simple as more factories. Zero new mines. Zero complex permitting.

Sustainable.

Clean by design. Our closed-loop manufacturing process sets the standard for sustainable magnet production and bypasses the rare earth supply chain. We use iron and nitrogen - clean and simple.

(Conceptual Design)

Niron Magnetics is reshaping American manufacturing. We saw the problems caused by rare earth dependence and took a fundamentally different approach, reconceptualizing how magnets can be made. Our groundbreaking Iron Nitride technology was born at the University of Minnesota, then developed and manufactured right here in Minnesota. 

The result is a more secure and sustainable supply chain, and a material that unlocks innovation in magnet-using devices. With facilities clean enough to sit in the heart of cities, and our world-class team of experts, we are creating the future of magnetics.
