According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Indene market size was valued at US$ 112 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 158 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 4.5% during review period.
Indene is a flammable polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon with the molecular formula C₉H₈. Structurally, it consists of a benzene ring fused to a cyclopentene ring. Indene is a colorless aromatic liquid, although commercial samples often appear pale yellow. Its primary industrial application is as a raw material for the production of indene–coumarone thermoplastic resins. Indene is an important aromatic hydrocarbon mainly present in the C₉ fraction, which is a byproduct of ethylene steam cracking, as well as in coal tar. Indene can be obtained through the initial distillation of crude benzene derived from hydrodistillation, and from dephenolized phenol oil produced during coal tar naphthalene processing. In practical industrial operations, a significant portion of indene resources remains underutilized, or the indene fraction is consumed in intermediate processing steps rather than being recovered as a standalone product. In 2025, global Indene sales reached approximately 159,601 Tons, with an average price of 681.2 US$/Ton.
The growth of the Indene market is primarily driven by downstream demand for resins and fine chemicals, with indene–coumarone thermoplastic resins widely used in coatings, inks, rubber modification, and adhesives forming the core demand base. Meanwhile, as ethylene cracking capacities expand and the utilization of C₉ fractions improves, the recovery and further processing value of Indene as a byproduct aromatic hydrocarbon becomes increasingly significant, stimulating demand for separation, purification, and processing technologies. In addition, regional policies supporting coal tar processing and high-value aromatic hydrocarbon utilization have also contributed to the steady development of the Indene market.
