The growth of the ultrasonic cleaning market is expected to be driven by the expansion of the food and beverage industry in the coming years. This industry includes all businesses involved in the production, processing, packaging, distribution, and sale of food and beverage products. It spans various sectors and activities, ranging from agriculture and farming to food manufacturing and retail. The growth of the food and beverage industry is attributed to the rising global population and changing consumer preferences toward healthier and more convenient food options. Ultrasonic cleaning is used within this industry to ensure high standards of hygiene and sanitation by effectively cleaning equipment and components used in food processing, packaging, and distribution. For example, in July 2025, the Government of Canada reported that in 2024, exports of processed food and beverage products reached a record $59.8 billion, reflecting a 3.8% increase compared to 2023. Consequently, the growth of the food and beverage industry is propelling the expansion of the ultrasonic cleaning market.

Leading companies in the ultrasonic cleaning market are focusing on developing innovative technologies, such as ultrasonic cleaning technology, to improve cleaning efficiency, reduce processing time, enhance contamination removal effectiveness, and expand the range of applications across various industries. Ultrasonic cleaning technology utilizes high-frequency sound waves to generate microscopic bubbles in a liquid cleaning solution, which implode to effectively remove dirt, grime, and contaminants from surfaces. For example, in December 2023, ActOn Finishing, a UK-based surface finishing company, introduced ultrasonic cleaning machines. These machines are designed to efficiently clean, descale, and strip a wide variety of components. The technology serves multiple industries, including automotive, aerospace, medical, and electronics, improving cleaning efficiency and quality.

In November 2023, Getinge, a Swedish healthcare company, acquired Healthmark Industries Co., Inc. for $320 million, aiming to strengthen its position in the medical device cleaning and sterilization market. This acquisition expands Getinge's portfolio of healthcare sterilization solutions, leveraging Healthmark's expertise in ultrasonic cleaning products and solutions for the healthcare industry.
