Disinfectant robots help eliminate harmful pathogens,
including viruses and bacteria, from the healthcare environment while
minimizing human exposure. These robots use ultraviolet light, steam, or
disinfectant spray methods to sanitize hospital rooms and equipment. The
growing prevalence of hospital-acquired infections and implementation of
stringent regulations regarding hygiene and sterilization are augmenting the
demand for disinfectant robots.
The global
disinfectant robot market is estimated to be valued at US$ 1472.19 Bn in 2024
and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 8.3% over the forecast period 2024 to
2031, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
The increased adoption of disinfectant robots in hospitals is one of the key
trends fueling market growth. According to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), around 1 in 25 hospital patients contract at least one
hospital-acquired infection. Disinfectant robots offer an effective solution to
reduce the risks of hospital-acquired infections by sanitizing rooms and
equipment automatically. Their use eliminates the scope of human errors and
enhances disinfection consistency. Various technological advancements are
allowing manufacturers to integrate robots with ultraviolet disinfection, steam
disinfection, hydrogen peroxide disinfection, and dry fog disinfection methods,
which is further contributing to their increased adoption in the healthcare
sector.
Segment
Analysis
The global disinfectant robot market is
dominated by ultraviolet (UV) disinfection robots sub-segment. UV disinfection
robots enable effective disinfection of large areas without human intervention
through UV-C light that kills microorganisms by destroying their DNA. They
provide better coverage, consistency, and compliance over manual disinfection
methods. With growing awareness about healthcare associated infections (HAIs),
there is an increasing demand for autonomous disinfection robots that can
disinfect hospital rooms and operation theaters efficiently without human
contact.
Key Takeaways
The global disinfectant robot market is expected to witness high growth during
the forecast period due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic that has boosted
demand for advanced disinfection technologies across healthcare, hospitality,
and commercial spaces. Global
Disinfectant Robot Market Size is estimated to be valued at US$ 1472.19
Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 8.3% over the forecast period
2024 to 2031.
Regional analysis
North America dominates the global disinfectant robot market with the highest
revenue share owing to rapid technological advancements and growing healthcare
spending in the region. The market in Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the
fastest pace during the forecast period driven by rising healthcare
infrastructure, increasing infection control initiatives, and growing demand
from densely populated countries like India and China.
