Concerns for indoor air quality, especially as most people spend their time inside, has been driving the market for air cleaners. In the wake of the pandemic and due to the rising incidence of respiratory diseases as air pollution levels are still high, there has been greater emphasis on solutions that address various contaminants. Air purification that filters out particulates and allergens is no longer enough. Equal importance is now also placed on sanitizing and disinfecting the air and surfaces.
As such, demand for air purification sterilizers is still on the rise. According to Market Reports World, these devices reached $8.14 billion in 2023 and are projected to hit $12.4 billion by 2030, or at 6.2 percent CAGR. By application, this market covers residential, commercial and public spaces, with the first being the largest segment followed by hospitals and healthcare centers.
In South Korea, air purification and sterilization are combined using composite filters and UV-C disinfection lighting, with options designed for spaces of all sizes. Wall-mount, floor-standing and walk-through configurations are available, with basic to advanced and multifunction features.
