Market Definition

The Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market size was valued at USD 3.89 billion in 2022 and is predicted to reach USD 10.99 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 16.0% from 2023-2030.

The UV disinfection equipment industry develops and manufactures cutting-edge UV disinfection technologies and solutions that play a pivotal role in enhancing public health, safety, and hygiene across diverse sectors and applications. UV disinfection equipment eliminates harmful microorganisms without the use of chemicals, driving demand across industries such as healthcare, water treatment, and food and beverage. The industry is marked by innovation and advancements, with UV disinfection systems becoming more compact, efficient, and adaptable to various settings. The industry is driven by a commitment to public health, environmental sustainability, and the ongoing pursuit of safer and cleaner spaces.

Market Dynamics and Trends

The increasing awareness of the transmission of infectious diseases such as influenza, chickenpox, and anthrax, along with stringent government regulations and standards for water and air quality is driving the growth of the market. For instance, in June 2023, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued an order to Las Vegas to rectify shortcomings and non-compliance in its Clean Water Act (CWA) pretreatment program to ensure the protection and preservation of local water resources and ecosystems. It creates an opportunity for UV disinfection equipment as EPA's order provides Las Vegas with a roadmap for how to improve its wastewater treatment program.

Also, the importance of efficient sterilization and infection control especially in healthcare settings to prevent healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) is further driving the growth of the market. For instance, in February 2023, MedStar Health hospital sites installed Surfacide's UV-C disinfection technology in all of its hospitals, aiming to bolster infection control measures and ensure safer healthcare environments across all MedStar Health hospitals.

Moreover, the rising demand for safety and hygiene in the food & beverage industry to eliminate harmful microorganisms from food & beverage products while ensuring their quality and safety is boosting the growth of the market. For instance, in January 2021, McDonald's franchisees incorporated Synexis' UV-based biodefense technology into their restaurants. This strategic measure reflects their dedication to deploying cutting-edge UV pathogen control solutions, ensuring heightened safety of food for customers.

However, high initial and maintenance costs of UV disinfection equipment is hindering the adoption of these equipment, which is expected to restrain the growth of the market.

On the contrary, introduction of UV lamps and UV disinfection robots specifically tailored for use in hospitals, shopping malls, and airports, aiming to achieve effective disinfection of rooms and machinery, while integrating automated safety features to safeguard individuals is expected to create ample opportunities in the growth of the market.

For instance, in January 2021, UBTECH, a Chinese robotics firm, launched UV lighting disinfecting robots targeting hospitals, airports, and shopping malls to counter pathogen transmission. These robots employ UV light for effective disinfection, incorporating automated safety features to aid in maintaining sanitized environments.

Geographical Analysis

North America holds the dominant share of the UV disinfection equipment market at present and is expected to continue its dominance during the forecast period. This is attributed to the factors such as the growing demand for effective wastewater treatment technologies in countries such as the U.S., Canada, and Mexico to address the poor condition of wastewater treatment infrastructure. According to the American Society of Civil Engineers' (ASCE) Infrastructure Report Card, the U.S. wastewater infrastructure received a "D+" grade, highlighting the urgent need for improvements in its wastewater treatment. With the rising demand for wastewater treatment, the adoption of advanced technologies such as UV disinfection equipment is also growing in this region, boosting the growth of the market.

Also, the presence of major key players such as Xylem Inc., Evoque Water Technologies, Lumalier Corporation, and Applied UV Inc., which are adopting business expansion as their key developmental strategy boosts the market in this region. For instance, in June 2022, Evoqua Water Technologies opened a new facility in Warrington, UK. The new facility facilitated its function as Evoqua's worldwide hub for creating advanced UV disinfection solutions.

On the other hand, Asia-Pacific is expected to show a steady rise in the UV disinfection equipment market due to the growing prevalence of water-borne diseases such as cholera, diarrhea, and typhoid in countries, such as India and Japan.

As per the National Library of Medicine, approximately 37.7 million individuals in India suffer from waterborne diseases each year, with an estimated 1.5 million children facing the risk of death due to diarrhea. This highlights the urgent need for effective water treatment solutions such as UV disinfection, which shows ample opportunity for the UV disinfection market.

Moreover, the increasing government regulations aimed at controlling various pollution such as air and water in countries such as China & Singapore is expected to boost the UV Disinfection Equipment Market in this region. For instance, in February 2021, the China State Council announced Regulations on the Management of Pollutant Discharge Permits. It regulates the national pollutant discharge permit system and enterprises that discharge pollutants in the form of air emissions, water discharges, or wastes in China. This leads to an increased demand for UV disinfection equipment to meet these requirements in this region.
