Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2021-2027)

Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment Market is expected to exceed the market valuation of US$ 11 billion by 2027 by showcasing a CAGR of 14.8% during the forecast period (2021-2027). UVC band ultraviolet light (200-280 nm) is also known as ultraviolet germicidal radiation and is widely used for sterilizing equipment and creating sterile environments. Sensitivity of pathogens having different sensitivities to UV exposure from the highest to the lowest sensitivity include bacteria and protozoa > viruses > bacterial spores > Adenovirus (an exception in from all the other viruses) > algae. UVC lights are also used in food and water industry to inactivate microorganisms. UV-C radiations are being used to treat water since the 1900s and has been proven to be a safe and effective disinfection process for drinking water. Even though there is no direct disinfection by product formed, photo nitration can lead to the production of a range of new nitro organics during the treatment of UV that can form halo nitromethanes if the water is subsequently chlorinated. To deliver the maximum effect of germicidal effectiveness to inactivate microorganisms, Ultraviolet radiation should be emitted at the optimal wavelength of 253.7 nanometer (nm), which is known as ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI). The germicidal effectiveness decreases with other wavelengths. Thus, high quality UV sterilization lamps are important and effectively deliver the right amount of UV radiation for the desired application.
Key reason for this growth is the recent covid-19 pandemic. After the emergence of the coronavirus in 2019, the infection had spread to more than 213 countries around the world till January 2021. With the fast transit of global travel around the world in today’s age, the spreading of an infectious outbreak across national and international boundaries has become very easy and could occur within days. Many other pandemics like the SARS, Ebola virus, H1N1, bird flu, swine flu have also gripped the world and effected thousands of businesses and people around the world. Pandemics like these are expected to increase in occurrence due to global warming and UV disinfection equipment’s is a good option to eradicate these infections in future. According to the International Ultraviolet Association (IUVA), 254 nm mercury UV lamp can eradicate 99% of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Since this finding, IV disinfection equipment’s have been installed in schools, airports, hospitals, railway stations etc. around the globe. Hospitals use robots with installed UV lamps for disinfection. For example. Tru-D and Xenex are two robots which can enter empty rooms (between patients) and roam around remotely while emitting high power UV irradiation to disinfect surfaces. In November 2020, the European Union purchased 200 disinfection robots for hospitals across Europe.
American Ultraviolet, Atlantic Ultraviolet Corporation, Australian Ultraviolet Services Pty. Ltd., Danaher Corporation, Halma Plc, Koninklijke Philips N.V., Kuraray Co. Ltd., Xylem Inc., Severn Trent Plc, and Steris Plc are some of the prominent players operating in the Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment market. Several M&As along with partnerships have been undertaken by these players to facilitate customers with hi-tech and innovative products/technologies.
Insights Presented in the Report
“Amongst Component, Controller Unit segment holds the major share”
Based on Component, the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment market is segmented into UV Lamp, Controller Unit, Quartz Sleeve, Reactor Chamber, and Others. Amongst component, the controller unit segment of the market held the significant share in the market in 2020. The controller unit controls the overall electrical output of the UV lamp that is used in the UV disinfection equipment and powers the lamp to produce UVC light which is used to disinfect. The intensity of radiations is varied depending on the electrical supply that is offered by the control unit.
“Amongst Marketing Channel, Direct Marketing Segment holds the major share”
Based on Marketing Channel, the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment market is segmented into Direct Marketing and Indirect Marketing. Amongst marketing channel, direct marketing segment accounted for the major share in 2020 and is expected to showcase considerable growth during the forecast period. The key reason for the higher revenue of the direct marketing segment is that it helps seller to reach potential customers. The vast range of UV disinfection equipment nowadays is also a reason for the for the growth of direct marketing.
 
“Amongst Application, Water Treatment segment holds the major share”
Based on Application, the Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment market is segmented into Water Treatment, Wastewater Treatment, Air Treatment, Food & Beverage Disinfection, and Surface Disinfection. The Water Treatment segment is further segmented into municipal water treatment, residential water treatment, and commercial water treatment. The air treatment segment is further segmented into Healthcare facilities, Residential and commercial, and Bio terror agents. The water treatment segment held the prominent share in the market owing to the recent fast paced industrialization in developing such as India and China which has resulted in large amounts of water and air pollution.
“Amongst End-User, Industrial Segment holds the major share”
Based on end-user, the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment market is segmented into Residential, Commercial, and Industrial. Key reason for the highest revenue in industrial segments is because of its increased use during the pandemic to maintain sanitization in public places. UV disinfectants are most commonly used in hospitals to remove bacteria and viruses which cannot be removed by just using chemical disinfectants.
“North America represents one of the largest markets of Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection Equipment market”
