The worldwide air purifier market is expected to rise at a CAGR of 10.24%, with a value of USD 24.78 billion over the projected quarter of 2022-2030.
An air purifier refers to an electrical appliance that helps in improving the air quality by removing the contaminants present in an enclosed space. It aids in protecting the total volatile organic compounds like smoke, dust, harmful chemicals, gases, etc. The air purifier also offers numerous benefits in reducing the risk of several respiratory diseases, maintaining the air quality, providing a toxin-free environment, mitigating the smells and odours, etc. As a result, it is widely installed across households, corporate and government offices, retail stores, and public spaces like hotels, gymnasiums, spas, clinics, beauty salons, cinema halls, malls, etc.
In Europe, the rising demand for air purifiers can be attributed to the high prevalence of numerous respiratory diseases due to deteriorating air quality. This, with this, elevating levels of industrialization leading to the growing discharge of the air pollutants are also propelling the air purifier market growth. However, the expanding automobile fleet, coupled with the increasing adoption of air pollution control equipment, including air purifiers to mitigate the detrimental effects of toxic vehicular emissions, further catalysis the regional air purifier market.
Players Focus on M&A Activities and R&D Investments to Gain a Larger Competitive Share The air purifier market appears extremely fragmented due to the strong presence of well-established industry players. Global vendors are increasingly facing fierce competition from each other and from local firms, who are growing aware of the regulations and suppliers in the industry. Therefore, eminent players seek opportunities to integrate across the extended value chain while focusing on the expansion of production facilities, R&D investments, and M&A activities to gain a larger impetus.
LG is a well-reputed electronics manufacturer in the consumer electronics industry, with its primary focus on expanding its product range and launching new products. Philips offers an extensive range of air purifiers with advanced technologies such as plasma technology and high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter technology.
While no air purifiers are tested specifically for the coronavirus, LG models with a HEPA filter can capture most of the particles as small as 0.3 microns, smaller than the size of most airborne pathogens. LG air purification system could be effective and successful and especially helpful with someone who has contracted the virus.
