The question title asks how to host material icons offline but the body clarifies that the objective is to use the material icons offline  emphasis mine    Using your own copy of the material icons files is a valid approach implementation   Another  for those that can use a service worker is to let the service worker take care of it   That way you don t have the hassle of obtaining a copy and keeping it up to date   For example  generate a service worker using Workbox  using the simplest approach of running workbox-cli and accepting the defaults  then append the following text to the generated service worker   workboxSW router registerRoute  https   fonts googleapis com        workboxSW strategies cacheFirst     cacheName   googleapis     cacheExpiration        maxEntries  20        cacheableResponse   statuses   0  200           You can then check it was cached in Chrome using F12   Application   Storage   IndexedDB and look for an entry with googleapis in the name

As of 2020  my approach is to use the material-icons-font package  It simplifies the usage of Google s material-design-icons package and the community based material-design-icons-iconfont    Install the package  npm install material-icons-font --save Add the path of the package s CSS file to the style property of your project s angular json file        styles            node modules material-icons-font material-icons-font css         If using SCSS  copy content below to the top of your styles scss file    import   material-icons-font sass variables     import   material-icons-font sass mixins     MaterialIcons FontPath    material-icons-font fonts     import   material-icons-font sass main     import   material-icons-font sass Regular    Use the icons in the HTML file of your project      Using icon tag  lt i class  material-icons  gt face lt  i gt   lt i class  material-icons md-48  gt face lt  i gt   lt i class  material-icons md-light md-inactive  gt face lt  i gt      Using Angular Material s  lt mat-icon gt  tag  lt mat-icon gt face lt  mat-icon gt   lt mat-icon gt add circle lt  mat-icon gt   lt mat-icon gt add circle outline lt  mat-icon gt     Icons from  angular material tend to break when developing offline  Adding material-icons-font package in conjunction with  angular material allows you to use the  tag while developing offline

2019 Update here  To self host your material icons  the Regular ones  Rounded  Sharp  all the variants  Go get them from this repo  https   github com petergng material-icon-font For some reason I dont know why these fonts are not easily accessible from Google repositories  But here you go  After downloading the package  go to bin folder and you ll see the four variants  Of course  it is up to you to use whichever  To use them  create a css file and  Generate a font face for each variant you need    font-face       font-family   Material Icons       font-style  normal      font-weight  400      src  url   icons regular Material-Icons-Regular eot      For IE6-8        src  local  Material-Icons-Regular        url   icons regular Material-Icons-Regular woff2  format  woff2        url   icons regular Material-Icons-Regular woff  format  woff        url   icons regular Material-Icons-Regular ttf  format  truetype        font-face       font-family   Material Icons Round       font-style  normal      font-weight  400      src  url   icons round Material-Icons-Round eot      For IE6-8        src  local  Material-Icons-Round        url   icons round Material-Icons-Round woff2  format  woff2        url   icons round Material-Icons-Round woff  format  woff        url   icons round Material-Icons-Round svg  format  svg        url   icons round Material-Icons-Round ttf  format  truetype        font-face       font-family   Material Icons Sharp       font-style  normal      font-weight  400      src  url   icons sharp Material-Icons-Sharp eot      For IE6-8        src  local  Material-Icons-Sharp        url   icons sharp Material-Icons-Sharp woff2  format  woff2        url   icons sharp Material-Icons-Sharp woff  format  woff        url   icons sharp Material-Icons-Sharp svg  format  svg        url   icons sharp Material-Icons-Sharp ttf  format  truetype       The url will link to where the icons are located in your project   Now lets register the icon classes    material-icons-outlined   material-icons       font-weight  normal      font-style  normal      font-size  24px      Preferred icon size        display  inline-block      line-height  1      text-transform  none      letter-spacing  normal      word-wrap  normal      white-space  nowrap      direction  ltr     This will make both  material-icons-outlined  and  material-icons classes use the same defaults  If you want to to use  material-icons-sharp  just append it to the two class names   Finally  let us plug-in the font face you pulled in from step 1    material-icons       font-family   Material Icons       material-icons-outlined       font-family   Material Icons Outline      Again  to use more variant  like Sharp  just add its block like the two above  Once done   go to your html and use your newly minted icons   lt i class  quot material-icons-outlined quot  gt hourglass empty lt  i gt    lt i class  quot material-icons quot  gt phone lt  i gt
