The washing machine market is anticipated to experience growth in the forecast period, with rapid urbanization playing a significant role. Global urban population data from September 2021, provided by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, reveals that 4.46 billion people lived in urban areas in 2021. This number is projected to increase to 6.68 billion by 2050, reflecting a rise in urban residents by 2.22 billion. The expansion of urban populations, coupled with increased disposable incomes and affordability in cities, is expected to drive the demand for washing machines.

The washing machines market is also set to benefit from the growing emphasis on energy efficiency. Energy efficiency involves reducing the energy required to provide products and services. Consumers are increasingly seeking energy-efficient appliances, including washing machines, to replace older, less efficient models. This trend is driven by the desire to save money on energy bills and reduce environmental impact. In October 2021, the U.S. Energy Information Administration reported that global energy consumption is projected to increase nearly 50% by 2050. The shift towards energy-efficient appliances aligns with global efforts to address environmental concerns.

Manufacturers in the washing machines market are responding to the demand for energy efficiency by producing appliances that meet stringent regulations and leverage technological advancements. Currently, over 80 countries have standards and labels for energy-efficient appliances. For instance, ENERGY STAR certified washing machines in the USA use 25% less energy and 33% less water than standard models, contributing to energy conservation.

Leading companies in the washing machines market are actively pursuing innovation by incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Integration of AI capabilities enhances the performance, efficiency, and user experience of washing machines. In January 2021, LG Electronics launched the LG ThinQ front-load washing machine with an AI-powered washer. The AI DD motor in this washing machine recognizes fabric softness and weight, autonomously determining the optimal movements for effective cleaning. With features such as Smart ThinQ WiFi functionality, users can control the washing machine remotely. Additional technologies, such as TurboWash 360, further contribute to efficient cleaning, emphasizing the industry's commitment to innovation and technological advancements.
