Complex Manufacturing Process and Low Awareness Levels among End-Users Challenge Growth
Manufacturing synthetic diamonds is a complex process. While there are different methods identified, most of them require high temperature and high pressure. It also involves the use of chemicals and produces high noise in some cases. These complicated procedures could restrict interest among companies in the market.
On the other hand, the low awareness levels among people is also a challenge. Synthetic diamonds have recently entered the market. People are slowly gaining awareness about the product in developed and developing countries. However, a large section of the market is still unaware about its wide range of properties and applications. This could challenge growth in the global synthetic diamonds market.
