Our researchers studied the data for years, with 2023 as the base year and 2024 as the estimated year, and presented the key drivers, trends, and challenges for the market. Although there has been a disruption in the growth of the market during the COVID-19 pandemic, a holistic analysis of drivers, trends, and challenges will help companies refine marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
There are several impacts of pollution, not only on the outdoor environment but also on the indoor environment. In addition, residing in a polluted environment and inhaling contaminated air can lead to serious health issues. In addition, the adverse health implications of indoor air pollutants include shortness of breath and irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat. Furthermore, proper maintenance and regular cleaning of indoor air ensure a hygienic and safe environment for inhabiting.
As a result, market players have developed appropriate solutions to purify indoor air and make the environment healthy and clean. In addition, these cleaners are equipped with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters that absorb minute particulates and provide clean air. These filters are designed with fiberglass with a width of 0.5-0.2 micrometers. Hence, such factors are driving the market growth during the forecast period.
The global robotic cleaner market is highly fragmented, due to the presence of several market players across the globe. In addition, high-performing cleaners are priced high as they possess additional features of room mapping and remote control via mobile applications and can be easily integrated with the cloud or smart building automation.
Therefore, new market players are pricing their products at a considerably low value to compete for a higher share of the market. In addition, global players provide expensive products with extended and supporting features with better quality. Furthermore, new players from China and India offer products with similar features but at lower prices. Hence, such factors are driving the market growth during the forecast period.
Due to the high battery consumption rates of residential robot vacuum cleaners, end-users have to recharge them at regular intervals, usually every 2-3 hours. Therefore, this hampers the vacuuming process and extends the time taken for cleaning. In addition, battery prices and the cost of implementing a recharging docking station are some considerations for end-users while purchasing.
Moreover, the batteries of most cleaners last for only 300-500 cycles, lasting for a shorter duration when used more frequently. In addition, companies claim that the battery life can be extended by taking care of associated accessories in vacuum cleaners and following the correct charging process to eliminate overcharging and overheating of the appliance. Hence, such factors are negatively impacting the market which in turn will hinder the market growth during the forecast period.
The residential segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. One of the primary end-users in the residential sector is households. In addition, this sector holds significant growth potential, as companies have penetrated only one-tenth of the total addressable market. As a result, this has led to the increased entry of many new players in the market, including those specializing in consumer electronic products.
