Nearly 100,000 fatalities in the United States occur each year as a result of healthcare-acquired infections (HAIs), and the expense of treating them runs into the billions. As a result, healthcare organizations and hospital administrators are starting to realize how useful and affordable it is to employ UV light to disinfect hospitals with wall-mounted units or portable UVC disinfection systems. Additionally, since they roam from room to room disinfecting patients, UVC robots are becoming more and more common in hospitals. Devices installed on the wall in bathrooms can be set to turn on when the door closes.

The demand for UV disinfection equipment in water and wastewater treatment is rising globally. UV technology is being utilized to ensure safe and clean water supplies, particularly in areas with limited access to clean water. Governments and regulatory bodies are emphasizing the importance of water quality, driving the implementation of UV disinfection systems in municipal water treatment plants and industrial wastewater treatment facilities.

The region is expected to increase at a CAGR of 13.3% over the forecast period and currently holds the largest market share for ultraviolet (UV) disinfection equipment globally. China is the region's biggest producer of ultraviolet disinfection equipment among the nations in the Asia-Pacific. Energy, aluminum, armaments, cement, chemicals, coal, fertilizers, food processing, iron, machine-building, mining, and ore processing are China's key economic sectors, with the energy industry accounting for around 33% of the Asia-Pacific market. China's economy is also rapidly expanding. Water is used as an input or a byproduct in these industries. Similar to China, metropolitan areas in India have a considerable need for UV disinfection equipment, and semi-urban areas are becoming more conscious of the issue.
