Ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products use ultraviolet light at a specific wavelength, approximately 254 nanometers, to kill bacteria, viruses, and various pathogens. These products work by exposing surfaces or air to UVC light, which effectively disrupts the DNA or RNA of microorganisms, making them inactive. UVC disinfection is a chemical-free method applicable in multiple environments, including healthcare facilities, commercial spaces, and homes.
The primary categories of ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products include those for surface disinfection, air disinfection, and water disinfection. Surface disinfection products consist of chemicals or devices aimed at eradicating pathogens from surfaces to prevent infection spread and uphold hygiene standards. Examples include UVC sanitizing or germicidal lamps, handheld sanitizer wands, UVC sanitization boxes or containers, mobile UVC room sanitization units, and UVC disinfection robots. These products find various commercial applications, including retail and shopping centers, hospitals and medical facilities, corporate offices, entertainment venues and parks, public transportation, and public gathering places, among others.
The ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market statistics, including the ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products industry's global market size, regional shares, competitors with an ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market share, detailed ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products industry. This ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $8.71 billion in 2023 to $10.31 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.4%. The growth during the historic period can be credited to the increasing occurrence of healthcare-associated infections, heightened public awareness regarding hygiene and sanitation, stronger regulatory backing for disinfection standards, the COVID-19 pandemic underscoring the significance of infection control, and the rising demand for eco-friendly, chemical-free disinfection methods.
The ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $20.36 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.5%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the expansion of global healthcare infrastructure, the increasing adoption of automation and smart technologies in sanitation, a greater emphasis on public health and safety post-pandemic, expanded research and development of new UVC applications, and rising consumer demand for sustainable, eco-friendly products. Key trends expected in this period include the integration of UVC technology with IoT for real-time monitoring, the development of portable and user-friendly UVC devices, a shift towards multifunctional disinfection systems, a focus on energy-efficient UVC solutions, and increased consumer awareness and demand for evidence-based disinfection methods.
The growing prevalence of water-borne diseases is anticipated to drive the expansion of the ultraviolet-C (UVC) disinfection products market. Water-borne diseases, caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites transmitted through contaminated water, are on the rise due to factors such as increasing pollution, poor sanitation, and limited access to safe drinking water. UVC disinfection products are highly effective in neutralizing pathogens in water by damaging their DNA, thereby preventing the spread and reproduction of these harmful microorganisms. For instance, a September 2024 report by the World Health Organization, a Switzerland-based intergovernmental organization, highlighted a 13% increase in cholera cases in 2023, along with a 71% rise in fatalities compared to the previous year. Despite being preventable and easily treatable, over 4,000 deaths were recorded in 2023, emphasizing the urgent need for better intervention strategies and resources. Consequently, the increasing occurrence of water-borne diseases is fueling the demand for UVC disinfection products.
Leading companies in the UVC disinfection products market are focusing on innovative product advancements, such as the development of Sensor360 technology, to improve disinfection efficiency, reduce cycle times, and offer adaptable solutions for different settings. Sensor360 is an advanced system that monitors UVC light reflection, ensuring the accurate application of the required dose for optimal disinfection. For example, in March 2023, Tru-D SmartUVC, a US-based health technology firm, introduced the Tru-D iQ system, a next-generation UVC disinfection product specifically designed to increase disinfection effectiveness in smaller healthcare spaces such as bathrooms and examination rooms. This system leverages Sensor360 technology to measure reflected UVC energy, ensuring precise dosing for comprehensive disinfection. It enables customized disinfection cycles tailored to specific environments, ensuring that both direct and shadowed areas receive adequate UVC exposure.
In June 2023, Seal Shield, a US-based provider of infection control and disinfection solutions, acquired CleanSlate UV for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is expected to bolster Seal Shield's infection-prevention product portfolio by integrating advanced UVC disinfection technologies. The acquisition is aimed at expanding market reach, enhancing product offerings, and strengthening Seal Shield's position in the UVC disinfection market. CleanSlate UV, a Canada-based health technology company, specializes in UVC and device sanitization solutions.
