UNITED STATES UV DISINFECTION EQUIPMENT MARKET FORECAST 2023-2030

The United States UV disinfection equipment market is expected to record a CAGR of 7.61% during the forecast period, 2023-2030, and is set to garner a revenue of $2548.98 million by 2030.

The UV disinfection equipment market growth in the United States is attributed to regulations like the Safe Drinking Water Act passed in 1974. It charged the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with controlling the nation’s tap water quality. The agency put in place maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) for over 90 contaminants. MCLs are the highest permissible pollutant amount in drinking water.

Moreover, the United States encompasses prominent technologies and standards which dominate the analyzed market. Besides, the country’s economic strength, scale of businesses, and abundant diversity foster innovations, as evident in its dominance in patenting. Such factors propel the United States UV disinfection equipment market growth.

The United States UV disinfection equipment market segmentation includes application and component. The application segment includes air treatment, water treatment, surface disinfection, and other applications.

The rising acceptance of UV-based operating room cleaning solutions in hospitals has significantly boosted the prospects for UV technology adoption in air treatment. UV technology is considerably more efficient in combatting the rising risk of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Also, UV-based treatments take lesser time than manual cleaning. An increasing number of hospitals are using UV-based treatments alongside manual cleaning procedures.

However, UV radiation suitability concerns hinder the adoption of UV technology-based air treatment. At the same time, innovations in processes & products alongside stringent operating protocols have been crucial in alleviating such concerns. In addition, there is a rising awareness about the vulnerability of indoor air to contamination over outdoor air. The UV disinfection technology neutralizes the majority of the contaminants that populate the indoor space.

Furthermore, air disinfection is less complicated compared to water and surface. As a result, equipment designers have the convenience of developing mobile and stationary systems to address the issue.

The air treatment segment is further sub-segmented into industrial, hospitality, office, retail shop, healthcare facilities, and others.

With regard to the hospitality segment, COVID-19 has invoked a new interest in using UV-C light to disinfect indoor air on account of the growing concerns about the easy transmission of viruses through aerosols. Whereas in the industrial segment, there are several Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations that obligate industries to maintain healthy & clean indoor air quality. Although most indoor air purification systems eliminate pollutants, they are impotent against bacteria and viruses. Accordingly, companies are investing in UV air purifiers since they are capable of disposing of microbial particles.

Furthermore, food processing plants should be free from airborne pathogens like E.Coli and Listeria. When the clean-up is done in these plants, the air surrounding the food is contaminated. This can impact the food quality and its shelf life. As a result, many food industries are opting for additional air purifiers over the existing HVAC systems to eliminate surface- and air-borne contamination by bacteria, volatile organic compounds, mold, smoke, and viruses.

Some of the leading firms operating in the United States UV disinfection equipment market are Atlantium Technologies Ltd, Calgon Carbon Corporation, Atlantic Ultraviolet Corporation, Danaher Corporation, etc.

Atlantic Ultraviolet Corporation is engaged in the manufacture of ultraviolet water purification equipment. It provides water purifiers, tank storage sanitizers, air duct disinfection units, pond & lake reclamation systems, and water & liquid disinfection products. The company primarily serves consumers in the United States. It is headquartered in Hauppauge, New York, the United States.

One of its products, STER-L-RAY® Instant Start Germicidal UV Lamps, is suitable for applications needing high UV intensity like water disinfection, conveyorized product disinfection, and air purification in duct systems.
