The increasing number of buildings with large windows is the major driving factor for the growth of themarket. Over the years, architecture has witnessed a substantial change. Designs, shapes, and forms have developed, and designers have come up with new building frameworks and they have replaced conventional small-sized windows with bigger and enlarged windows.
Not only in developed regions but also in developing countries such as India, and China, building construction designs have witnessed a phenomenal improvisation. In recent times, hotels, conventional halls, hospitals, office spaces, and other commercial buildings have been built to have large windows. This large size of windows demands frequent washing and maintenance. Because of its massive size and unique designs, it is not convenient to use manual window cleaners, thereby raising the demand. Such a factor is expected to boost the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
Robotic window cleaners minimizing laborer injury and fatal accidents are the primary trend shaping the robotic window cleaner market growth. With the emergence of these devices, manual efforts demanded to clean windows have significantly reduced.
Accidents and fatal injuries while washing windows have become a serious concern for cleaning service providers across the globe. Moreover, with the emergence of it, the risk of accidents and injuries has been reduced. Primarily due to the safety offers, the product has also been witnessing high adoption. Such factors are expected to boost the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
The use of manual window cleaners by cleaning-service providers is a major challenge to the growth of the global robotic window cleaner market. As per customer requirements, many cleaning service providers operate in the market and offer cleaning services as per customer requirements.
A significant number of cleaning service providers in key countries of EMEA and APAC use manual window cleaners to clean the windows of offices, houses, and other commercial complexes. Popular cleaning service agents frequently receive cleaning contracts, hence are required to maintain good repositories of cleaning equipment and devices. However, the popular cleaning service providers tend to prefer manual window cleaners for window cleaning, the demand and unit sales of manual window cleaners remain higher than that of robotic window cleaners. Hence, these factors are anticipated to pose a challenge to the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
