Key Driver - Rising investments in the healthcare industry

The healthcare industry is one of the fastest-growing industries globally and is expected to expand considerably during the forecast period. The healthcare industry comprises different medical fields, including hospitals, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and life sciences. Cleanrooms are an important part of the healthcare industry to maintain a contaminant-free environment while manufacturing drugs and medical devices. The increasing emphasis on improving the medical care and treatment available to the public is expected to have a positive impact on investments in cleanrooms in the healthcare industry. The rapidly ageing population and widespread prevalence of diseases have been aiding the growth of the healthcare industry. Since all medicines are manufactured within cleanrooms, the demand for new medicines and increased spending on generic drugs will drive the need for cleanrooms.

The pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry's relentless pursuit of product quality and end-user safety has led to the widespread adoption of cleanrooms. These controlled environments, which maintain specific temperature, humidity, and air particle levels, are essential for the production of pharmaceuticals and biotechnology products. Cleanrooms allow for the elimination of contaminants, ensuring the consistency and purity of final products. Moreover, the increasing demand for drugs, driven by an aging population and rising healthcare needs, is expected to fuel investments in new and capacity expansion projects in the healthcare industry. This trend, in turn, will propel the growth of the global cleanroom market. Cleanroom furniture plays a crucial role in maintaining the stringent cleanroom standards. These specially designed furnishings are manufactured to minimize particle generation and are easy to clean and disinfect, ensuring the continued effectiveness of the cleanroom environment.

Significant Trends - Augmented use of medical devices

There has been an increase in the adoption of diagnostic medical devices in the pharmaceutical industry. These medical devices offer therapeutic benefits and are used to measure or monitor the functions of the human body. These medical devices are designed to diagnose and treat patients and make significant contributions to improving the health of people. Hospitals use medical technology such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), robotic prosthetic limbs, and artificial organs for better diagnosis and improved patient care.

However, as medical devices are manufactured in controlled environments, the increase in the use of medical devices will result in increased application and, hence, increased demand for cleanrooms and supplies such as cleanroom storage cabinets. This is expected to drive the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Major Challenge - Growing adoption of robot arms in cleanrooms

There has been a rise in the deployment of robot arms in cleanroom applications across industries. These robot arms have been developed by Danish manufacturer Universal Robots, UR3, UR5, and UR10, for use in ISO class 6 cleanrooms in compliance with ISO standard 14644-1. They are currently being used in controlled environments, which is likely to pave the way for robots in industrial applications. Moreover, the cleanrooms that are used in the food industry are also likely to deploy robot arms. Robot arms are used in cleanroom applications to produce microchips and semiconductors. These robot arms are supplied in a controller box, which requires modifications and can be used in ISO 6 clean rooms.

Consequently, with the increase in the use of robot arms, the cleanroom storage cabinet is likely to be replaced by robot arms. The automation of operations in various end-user industries, such as medical, semiconductors, and automotive, will have a negative impact on the demand. Hence, owing to the negative impact of the cleanroom materials, the growth of the global market is expected to witness growth during the forecast period.
