MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS
Availability of Robotic Cleaning Equipment
Adopting automation and robotic technologies can substantially change the overall cleaning industry as it reduces the cost of cleaning and eliminates labor costs, accounting for approximately 95% of the cleaning cost. Furthermore, several vendors are increasing their spending on IoT to deliver a seamless customer experience. For instance, Karcher offers autonomous scrubber driers linked to Telekom's global IoT network, making remote access and digital fleet management possible. Thus, technological advances, such as IoT, machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI), are likely to enable the launch of advanced offerings, contributing to the expansion of the autonomous commercial scrubbers and sweepers market.Growing Contract Cleaning Services
With the rise in the use of contract cleaning services in the market, there is an expected increase in the demand for more commercial and professional tools. Contract cleaning is generally an effective solution for cleaning services available for industries, schools, offices, and hospitals. This type of cleaning is done on a contract basis at subsidized rates. Typically, the working population and large organizations need services where they do not need to invest time and effort to carry out cleaning activities. Additionally, the demand for contract cleaners is driven by the desire to save time, cost, and effort in floor cleaning due to hectic lifestyles. Consequently, the commercial scrubbers and sweepers market is anticipated to increase within the contract cleaning segment during the forecast period. Contract cleaners invest heavily in the equipment they purchase to enhance quality and productivity, promoting customer satisfaction.Growing Demand for Cleanliness in the Hospitality Industry
The hospitality industry is growing in highly organized economies, leading to the increased adoption of commercial scrubbers and sweepers. Countries such as the U.K., France, Germany, India, and others are undertaking numerous hotel construction projects, fueling the expansion of the hospitality industry. Cleanliness is crucial for a hotel's overall aesthetics and atmosphere, reflecting the brand's identity and style. Guests appreciate and value a well-maintained environment. As a result, the hospitality industry creates a greater demand for cleaning equipment, thereby providing opportunities for vendors in the global commercial scrubbers and sweepers market. Additionally, the rising disposable incomes among the population and the preference among millennials to spend on luxury services rather than goods have driven the growth of the hospitality industry. Other drivers include lower prices of airline tickets due to increasing competition and the high internet and social media penetration in developed and emerging countries. This allows the population to gather more knowledge about the places they want to visit and how to travel. The tourism industry is not only confined to leisure; both formal and informal tourism have risen globally.SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS
