Disinfection Robots Market
Disinfection Robots Market by Type (UV Light, Disinfectant Sprayer, Combined System), Technology (Autonomous, Semi-Autonomous), End User (Hospital, Transportation, Hospitality, Industries), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2028
Report ID:MRHC - 104547 Pages: 140 Feb-2022 Formats*: PDF Category: Healthcare Delivery: 2 to 4 HoursThe Disinfection Robots Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 30.1% from 2021 to 2028 to reach $2.79 billion by 2028. Disinfection is the process of eliminating disease-causing microorganisms and viruses from the desired environment.
Disinfection robots are machines developed to perform surface disinfection by applying ultraviolet (UV) radiations, disinfectant sprays, or a combination of both. Hospital-acquired infections have been a major issue in the healthcare industry globally. Millions of patients get infected every year, and thousands die due to diseases acquired in the hospital.
Disinfection robots are mobile robots that can navigate autonomously or with the help of an operator. In recent years, the use of disinfection robots has increased from hospitals to public transportation and other public spaces such as shopping malls due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
The key factors driving the global disinfection robots market are the prevalence of hospital-acquired infections and the advantages offered by disinfection robots over manual disinfection. In addition, emerging economies and technological advancements in the field of robotics are expected to provide significant opportunities for the growth of this market in the coming years.
However, the limitations of disinfection robots, such as the inability to disinfect bacterial and viral pathogens trapped in dirt and organic soiling, may restrain the growth of this market to some extent. Similarly, the high initial cost coupled with additional repair & maintenance costs poses a major challenge for the players operating in this market.

Impact of COVID-19 on Global Disinfection Robots Market
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in an influx of patients and a shortage of medical staff across healthcare sectors worldwide. In order to curb the spread of infection in essential areas such as healthcare facilities and other public areas and reduce the exposure of healthcare personnel to infected patients, disinfection robots were deployed to clean and sterilize (disinfect) the surfaces in desired areas.
Disinfection robots utilize a precise wavelength of UV light to eliminate viruses and other types of harmful microorganisms on exposed surfaces. These robots can be operated remotely to prevent exposure to UV radiation. Healthcare facilities worldwide have been using these robots to eliminate viruses, and other types of harmful microorganisms from rooms, hallways, and door handles. For instance, UVD Robots (Denmark) launched its robot that uses intense short-wavelength ultraviolet-C (UVC) light to clean hospital rooms and polluted surfaces to prevent hospital-acquired diseases. According to the company's CEO, the company reportedly shipped hundreds of its disinfection robots to China in February 2020 and hundreds more throughout Europe in March 2020.
Further, according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), hospitals in China ordered more than 2,000 UVD robots from Blue Ocean Robotics (Denmark). The company had projected a revenue growth target of 400% in 2020. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic thus acted as a catalyst for the growth of the disinfection robots market.
Key Findings of the Global Disinfection Robots Market Study:
Ultraviolet Light Disinfection Robots to Dominate Market
In 2021, the ultraviolet light disinfection robots segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the global disinfection robots market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing awareness about hospital-acquired infections, the efficacy of UV-C irradiation to disinfect surfaces, and the increased need for disinfection and sanitation during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fully Autonomous Disinfection Robots to Dominate Market
In 2021, the fully autonomous disinfection robots segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the global disinfection robots market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to factors such as the minimal manual interaction required for operating these robots and their efficient disinfection process.
Hospitals Segment to Dominate Market
In 2021, the hospitals segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the global disinfection robots market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to factors such as the high prevalence of healthcare-acquired infections and their high economic burden, rising healthcare expenditures, growing awareness about the advantages of disinfection robots, and increased adoption of disinfection robots in healthcare facilities as a protective measure against the COVID-19 outbreak.
Europe: The Largest Regional Market
In 2021, Europe dominated the global disinfection robots market. The largest market share of this region is primarily attributed to numerous government initiatives to adopt disinfection robots as a preventative measure against the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics in healthcare are anticipated to augment the growth of the disinfection robot market in Europe.
