Portable air purifiers are small, mobile devices designed to eliminate airborne contaminants such as dust, allergens, smoke, and bacteria from indoor spaces. They are commonly used to enhance air quality in homes, offices, and other enclosed areas by filtering out harmful particles and odors, leading to cleaner and healthier air.
The primary types of portable air purifiers include high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA), activated carbon, electrostatic precipitators, ionizers, ozone generators, and others. HEPA filters are designed to capture particles as small as 0.3 microns with an efficiency of at least 99.97%. These devices are available through various distribution channels, including hypermarkets, supermarkets, convenience stores, and online platforms, and are used in both residential and commercial settings.
The portable air purifier market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides portable air purifier market statistics, including portable air purifier industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a portable air purifier market share, detailed portable air purifier market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the portable air purifier industry. This portable air purifier market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The portable air purifier market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $13.52 billion in 2024 to $14.99 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.87%. The growth during the historical period can be credited to an increase in the use of fossil fuels, greater adoption of HEPA filters, growing concerns about indoor air quality (IAQ), government regulations, and a rise in the frequency of wildfires.
The portable air purifier market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $22.35 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.50%. The growth during the forecast period can be driven by climate change, the expansion of emerging economies, better affordability, increased awareness campaigns, and government incentives. Key trends in the forecast period include remote monitoring and alerts, photocatalytic air purification, built-in smart home integration, wearable integration, and carbon nanotube filters.
The increasing levels of air pollution are expected to drive the growth of the portable air purifier market. Air pollution involves the presence of harmful substances in the atmosphere that reduce air quality and pose risks to both human health and the environment. This rise in pollution is attributed to industrial emissions, vehicle exhaust, deforestation, agricultural practices, and the burning of fossil fuels, all of which lead to an increase in harmful pollutants such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. Portable air purifiers play a critical role in mitigating air pollution by efficiently removing harmful particles, allergens, and pollutants from indoor spaces, improving air quality, reducing health risks linked to polluted air, and providing a cleaner and safer environment, especially in regions with high external air contamination. For example, in April 2024, a report from the American Lung Association revealed that around 39% of the U.S. population, or approximately 131.2 million people, live in areas with unhealthy air pollution levels, an increase of 11.7 million from the previous year. As a result, the growing problem of air pollution is boosting the demand for portable air purifiers.
Major players in the portable air purifier market are introducing innovative products, such as cylindrical air purifiers, to improve air quality and meet the rising demand from consumers. A cylindrical air purifier is a compact device with a round, vertical design that allows for 360-degree air intake, offering efficient filtration. For example, in June 2024, Coway Co. Ltd., a South Korea-based household appliances company, launched the Airmega 100, the first cylindrical model that provides a cost-effective and durable air purification solution. This model specifically targets individuals affected by asthma and allergies, offering an affordable and efficient air purification option for smaller spaces. It features a 360-degree air intake that filters air from all directions, making it ideal for compact areas. Additionally, it operates quietly at just 20 dB in sleep mode, ensuring minimal disruption during rest, and includes a PM 2.5 sensor for real-time air quality monitoring, keeping users informed about their indoor air conditions.
In September 2024, Blueair, a Sweden-based manufacturer of portable air purifiers, partnered with Lanaco to enhance air purification through eco-friendly wool-based filtration technology. This collaboration combines Blueair's advanced purification systems with Lanaco's sustainable, wool-based filtration materials, creating highly effective air purifiers that capture airborne pollutants, allergens, and harmful particles while promoting both sustainability and improved health for consumers. Lanaco, a company based in New Zealand, specializes in developing natural fiber-based products.
