Niron Magnetics, Inc.

Grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with community and state leaders as we grow our presence in Sartell. We're excited about the road ahead and the impact we can make together!

Niron Magnetics is a finalist for the 2025 Manufacturing Leadership Awards in Sustainability and the Circular Economy! This recognition highlights our Iron Nitride manufacturing process that recycles 80% of water and 97% of hydrogen while enabling full recycling of our magnets through existing scrap iron streams. By eliminating the need for rare earth elements and creating a closed-loop manufacturing system, we're proving that sustainable technology can deliver exceptional performance without compromising environmental responsibility. We’re honored to be named an #MLAwards Finalist and are looking forward to the Manufacturing Leadership Awards Gala in Florida on June 18! Manufacturing Leadership Council

Rare earth minerals and magnets have been a growing topic of interest in the U.S. supply chain lately. This highlights the importance of strengthening America's supply chain for magnets. "Our company was founded to address the reality that most magnetic materials today come from outside the country," explained CTO Frank Johnson at the recent Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) Energy Innovation Summit. "That's why we're commercializing the world's most powerful non-rare-earth permanent magnet material made from Iron Nitride, which doesn't contain any critical minerals." Our Iron Nitride magnets are a domestically produced alternative that eliminates dependence on foreign rare earth supply chains. By using abundant materials and advanced manufacturing techniques, our Iron Nitride magnets can help build America’s supply chain resilience and support the growth of the automotive, consumer electronics, and defense industries. As global supply chains evolve, Niron Magnetics stands ready to partner with manufacturers seeking sustainable magnetic solutions made in the USA.
