Europe’s Tungsten Alarm: Can One Austrian Company Beat China’s Grip With Scrap and Smart Supply?

Europe remains heavily dependent on China for tungsten, a critical metal used across advanced manufacturing and industry. But an Austrian company is showing how that dependence could be reduced. Plansee has built a supply strategy around recycling and sourcing outside China, leaving the company largely insulated from Beijing’s dominance of the global tungsten market. Its approach comes as Europe searches for ways to protect strategic supply chains from geopolitical disruption and export restrictions. Could Plansee’s model offer Europe a blueprint for securing the critical raw materials its industries cannot afford to lose?
