Indium is a metal with various distinctive properties and is a soft silvery-white metal occurring naturally and combined with zinc and some other metals. It has unique properties such as exclusive bonding with cold welding, high thermal transfer rate, nonmetallic substances, reliable properties at cryogenic temperatures, and smoothness. Most indium makes tin oxide (ITO), an important part of touch screens, flat-screen TVs, and solar panels.

The Global Indium Market is expected to reach USD 1,067,702.07 thousand by 2030 from USD 638,291.43 thousand in 2023, growing with a substantial CAGR of 7.6% in the forecast period of 2023 to 2030. Rising demand for electronic items is an essential driver for the global indium market. The increasing popularity of solar panels and usage in dental alloys are expected to propel the global indium market growth. The major restraints that may negatively impact the global indium market are the credible threat of substitutes and environmental and health issues associated with indium. Growth in the semiconductor industry and the ability to recycle indium metal are expected to provide opportunities in the global indium market.
The increasing popularity of solar panels across the world will drive the market's growth rate
Indium is a metal used in the production of solar panels. Even though the indium demand has recently been low, it is necessary for heterojunction photovoltaics. Due to its optical transparency, electrical conductivity properties, and chemical resistance to moisture, indium tin oxides are set to be one of the widely used materials in solar panels. Such -indium-made solar panels conduct electricity and allow light to pass through to them. Furthermore, increasing infrastructural activities in developing countries have led to a rise in the energy demand, and thus the consumers are shifting towards solar energy, further driving the global indium market.

Segment Analysis:
The global indium market is segmented into two notable segments based on product and application
- On the basis of product, the global indium market is segmented into primary, secondary, and type III. In 2023, the primary segment is expected to dominate the global indium market with a 51.49% market share as they can be used to prepare indium tin oxide to create a transparent conductive coating for applications involving OLED displays, touch screens, and solar cells.
The primary segment will dominate the product segment of the indium market
The primary segment will emerge as the dominating segment under product with approximately 51% market share. This is because of the growing number of infrastructural development activities in the market especially in the developing economies. Further, growth and expansion of the materials and packaging all around the globe will further bolster the growth of this segment.
- On the basis of application, the global indium market is segmented into flat panel displays, semiconductor materials, photovoltaics, solders, alloys, thermal interface materials, and batteries. In 2023, the flat panel displays segment is expected to dominate the global indium market with a 61.01% market share because of the increased demand for LCDs, tablets, smartphones, and plasma screens.
The flat panel displays segment will dominate the application segment of the indium market
The flat panel displays segment will emerge as the dominating segment under application segment. This is because of the growing demand for flat panel displays in the market especially in the developing economies. Further, growth and expansion of research development services on a global scale will further bolster the growth of this segment.
