EPMA Powder Statistics Survey 2026

The Powders survey

This EPMA survey is looking specifically at the powder business in Europe to provide us with an overview of powders that are used in the PM processes - Press & Sinter, MIM, HIP, AM, HardMetals etc., but also of powders used in other fields.

The survey this year is to collect data for the year 2025.

All answers and data provided will be kept confidential at EPMA so the averaged results are shown anonymously and the list of participating companies will not be communicated.

If you need EPMA to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before filling in this questionnaire, please contact Bruno Vicenzi (bv@epma.com); otherwise, request it using Question 4 and it will be delivered to you as soon as possible.
