Freshdi lists Magnesium suppliers from 13 countries, led by China at 23.8%, as of 15 November 2026.
There are 21 active suppliers offering Magnesium on the platform, with 4 updating their listings in the last 30 days and 6 in the last 90. This shows a steady, though modest, level of activity—meaning suppliers are maintaining their presence, but not rapidly refreshing their offers. Buyers can expect consistent availability, though they should verify recent updates to ensure they’re working with current pricing or specifications. 35 listings are currently live, offering a range of grades and packaging options. While not a large catalog, the volume is sufficient for buyers to find a match for standard requirements without needing to start from scratch. The fact that listings are being updated regularly suggests suppliers are actively managing their inventory and responding to market demand. Suppliers come from 13 different countries, with China making up 23.8% of the total. This broad geographic spread gives buyers flexibility in sourcing—whether they're looking for cost advantages, specific certifications, or regional compliance. It also means alternatives exist beyond China, reducing reliance on a single origin.

How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Magnesium had 2 new listings in the last 30 days, fewer than the 3 the month before. The catalog is not growing quickly, so the offers available today are mostly from the same pool as last month. Check the listing date when comparing two similar offers to confirm which one is more recent.
Is the market busy?
No suppliers joined in the last 12 months, so all sellers have been on the platform for at least a year. The pool is stable and built on long-standing listings, which makes it easier to assess each supplier's consistency over time. The lack of new entries means buyers are limited to sellers with established records. Review each supplier's listing history before reaching out.

Trade terms and how to compare quotations
A reference for every category: what the usual trade and payment terms mean, and the points to check when you compare quotations.
| Term | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EXW | Incoterm | The buyer collects the goods at the seller's premises and pays every cost from there. |
| FCA | Incoterm | The seller hands the goods, cleared for export, to the buyer's carrier at a named place. |
| FOB | Incoterm | The seller loads the goods on the vessel at the port of loading; freight is the buyer's. |
| CFR | Incoterm | The seller pays sea freight to the destination port; the risk passes once loaded. |
| CIF | Incoterm | Like CFR, and the seller also insures the goods until the destination port. |
| CPT | Incoterm | The seller pays carriage to a named place; the risk passes at the first carrier. |
| CIP | Incoterm | Like CPT, and the seller also insures the goods to the named place. |
| DAP | Incoterm | The seller delivers to a named place, ready for unloading; import duties are the buyer's. |
| DPU | Incoterm | The seller delivers and unloads the goods at a named place in the destination country. |
| DDP | Incoterm | The seller delivers to the buyer's place and pays import duties and taxes too. |
| FAS | Incoterm | The seller places the goods alongside the vessel at the port of loading. |
| T/T | Payment term | A bank transfer, often a deposit before production and the balance against documents. |
| L/C | Payment term | A letter of credit, under which the buyer's bank pays once the shipping documents match its terms. |
| D/P | Payment term | Documents against payment, where the buyer gets the shipping documents once it pays. |
| D/A | Payment term | Documents against acceptance, where the buyer gets the documents by accepting to pay later. |
| CAD | Payment term | Cash against documents, where payment is made when the shipping documents are presented. |
| Bank Transfer | Payment term | A direct transfer between bank accounts, agreed in the contract. |
| Escrow | Payment term | A third party holds the payment until the buyer confirms delivery. |
| Cash | Payment term | Payment in cash, usually only for small or local orders. |
Name the Incoterm with a place, and agree it and the payment term in writing before production starts.
| Point | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Incoterm and place | Every quotation names the same Incoterm and port or place. | Prices on FOB and on CIF differ by the freight and the insurance. |
| Specification | The grade, size or composition quoted matches the one asked for. | A lower grade can hide behind a lower price. |
| Quantity and MOQ | The price is for the quantity ordered, above the minimum order. | Unit prices change with the order size. |
| Packaging | Packing type, size and labelling are stated and the same. | Custom packing adds cost. |
| Payment term | The payment term and the deposit asked. | It moves the risk between buyer and seller. |
| Lead time | The production and shipping time to the destination. | A late shipment can cost more than a higher price. |
| Documents | The certificates and export documents included. | Missing papers can block customs. |
| Validity | How long the quoted price holds. | Quotations are often valid for a limited time only. |
Ask every counterpart to quote on the same basis: only then does the lower price win.
