Germanium is one of the most important raw materials for the production of optical fibers. As an optical fiber, it plays a key role in the global expansion of fiber optic networks and 5G mobile networks. Another important area of application is infrared optics, where crystalline germanium is processed into infrared-transmitting glass and lenses. These are essential for the production of night vision goggles and thermal imaging cameras.

Another important customer is the plastics industry, which uses the raw material in oxide form as a polymerization catalyst. The metal is also used as a semiconductor in electronics and photovoltaics.

Why could German be an interesting investment?

Analysts estimate that demand for data centers in the United States will grow by 10% annually until 2030.
By 2030, high-speed fiber optic internet should be available throughout Germany (gigabit strategy).
According to research, the global germanium market is expected to grow at a rate of 3.9% annually between 2024 and 2030.
