Oxygen-Free Copper Market to Surpass USD 69.9 Billion by 2035, Driven by EV and Electronics Boom

The global oxygen-free copper (OFC) market will experience substantial growth, soaring from an estimated USD 40.9 billion in 2025 to a staggering USD 69.9 billion by 2035. This robust expansion, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%, is primarily fueled by the escalating demand for high-purity copper in the burgeoning electric vehicle (EV), consumer electronics, and renewable energy sectors.

The report highlights that OFC, a specialized copper with superior electrical and thermal conductivity, has become indispensable in high-performance applications where purity and reliability are non-negotiable. Its minimal oxygen content prevents hydrogen embrittlement, ensuring a long lifespan and optimal performance in critical components. This makes it a go-to material for everything from high-speed data cables and advanced circuit boards to EV wiring harnesses and industrial equipment.
