The global hospital cleaning technologies market was valued at $389.41 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $948.06 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 9.3% from 2022 to 2031.
Hospital cleanliness is essential for ensuring patient safety. According to experts, effective infection control measures must include careful cleaning and disinfection of environmental surfaces. Hospitals frequently employ substandard manual cleaning and disinfection techniques. This is frequently a result of a number of personnel challenges that many departments within the environmental services sector deal with. The effectiveness of disinfection procedures may also be impacted by failure to adhere to manufacturer's instructions for disinfectant use and lack of antimicrobial activity of some disinfectants against bacteria linked to healthcare.
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates, 1 in 31 hospital patients and 1 in 43 residents of nursing homes have a HAI in a day (an infection while being treated in a medical facility). The hospitals offer more specialized treatment for various diseases and easier access to the treatments have made more number of people to get hospitalized which further demands for hygiene and cleanliness in hospitals. Thus, the healthcare sector is turning toward innovative cleaning, disinfection, and compliance monitoring techniques as healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are on the rise. Patients get infections known as HAIs while undergoing surgical intervention. When nurses, doctors, and other healthcare professionals adopt infection prevention techniques, these conditions can be avoided. The various technologies involved in the disinfection procedure are the UV light disinfection, ultrasonic cleaning technology, air purifier, hand and surface sanitizers, instruments and equipment cleaning agents, and others.
For the safety and wellbeing of patients, keeping patient care facilities clean is important. An increasing number of physicians and administrators are looking to the technology sector for solutions as there is rise in information about the hazards of HAIs, which further demands for the cleanliness in hospitals, and to establish an environment that is best for patient safety. This further increases the demand for hospital cleaning technologies.
In addition, since the COVID-19 pandemic, instead of traditional cleaning practices, the disinfection procedure using advanced technologies such as UV disinfection and ESS is preferred for cleaning the hospitals. The pandemic has increased the necessity of cleaning and disinfection since unhygienic conditions have a direct impact on patients' health. Thus, demand for such advanced cleaning technologies leads to the growth of the market.
The drivers contributing to the market are the growing prevalence of the healthcare associated diseases, increasing number of surgeries around the globe and rising number of public and private hospitals along with the medical tourism and awareness about living and working in cleaned and sanitized places. The top market players are investing in the research and advancements to develop new cleaning technologies and advancing the existing cleaning technologies. In addition, product launch and building a strong product portfolio is the major focus of the players. Technologies related to the UV light disinfection, ultrasonic cleaning and purification of the air have provided opportunities to the market players to develop and manufacture products which have proven to be highly effective during the pandemic. These drivers provide favorable environments for increasing the sales of the cleaning products and also for the growth of the overall market. Furthermore, concerns regarding the safety of the reprocessed instruments hamper the growth of the market.
