[Research Report] The cleaning robot market is expected to grow from US$ 2,475.9 million in 2018 to US$ 8,441.3 million by 2025; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 19.2% from 2018 to 2025.

Analyst Perspective:

Due to growing urbanization in various countries and growing competition for jobs in urban areas, people are busy and don’t have time to invest in cleaning. In addition, hiring labor for cleaning is high-priced in developed and developing countries. Therefore, people are increasingly inclined towards automation for cleaning purposes. Also, the cleaning robot application is expanding to other industry verticals such as healthcare, automotive, logistics, and others. Therefore, market players are launching new products to cater to the increasing demand for cleaning robots for industrial and residential applications. For instance, in September 2021, Realme launched the Realme Techlife handheld vacuum cleaner, robot vacuum-mop, and air purifier due to the rapidly growing Internet-of-Things (IoT) and home technology space.

Furthermore, the compact size and ability to fit in smaller spaces helps the cleaning robot to clean the areas that are impossible for humans. Also, it can be used in hazardous environments where the reach of humans can prove fatal. Thus, such features and product launches boost the cleaning robot market

Rising population interest in smart home gadgets for the convenient living experience is a major factor driving the adoption of robots in residential applications and further fuels the cleaning robot market. These robots provide a high level of convenience as they allow house owners to navigate through the house autonomously, cleaning floors, carpets and other surfaces without their constant observation. In addition, cleaning is a time-consuming chore, and with rapidly changing lifestyle patterns, busy schedules, and rising disposable incomes, cleaning robots are witnessing a higher adoption rate in residential spaces and are expected to fuel the cleaning robot market in the coming years.

Market Overview:

Cleaning Robots are used for cleaning purposes in several end-user applications such as residential, commercial, and industrial. These types of robots are used for several applications such as floor cleaning, pool cleaning, lawn cleaning, window cleaning, and other applications such as litter cleaning, gutter cleaning, and several others. In addition, the expanding adoption of automation in different sectors and end-users is catalyzing the cleaning robot market and is expected to experience rapid growth in the coming years.

Cleaning Robots are autonomous machines that perform cleaning activities by themselves and without any human intervention, observation, or control for all the time. These robots have various features and technologies that allow them to perform self-drive mode and clean automatically. The only human assistant needed is to set the time for the cleaning process to be initiated. Such features drive the cleaning robot market.

With increasing urbanization and the busy and hectic life schedules of the people in urban areas, they don’t have much time to spare for cleaning. In addition, the theft risk increases with the dependency on labor for cleaning activities. Therefore, many people are shifting towards adopting robots for the cleaning purposes of their homes to ensure safe and proper cleaning of every corner of their house. 

Also, with the rapid development of smart cities in many developed and developing countries, the automation of various daily activities is increasing. Development of a smart building means automating most of the tasks and controlling them through a central unit. Also, with the growing disposable income of the population in urban areas, people are shifting towards automating all aspects of the home, such as electricity, cleaning, and others. 

In many countries, especially developed ones, the shift towards automation for cleaning purposes, as hiring labor in these countries is more costly than buying robots, fuels the demand for cleaning robots. Due to the high cost of these robots, the market growth is slow in developing countries but will gradually increase in the coming years, supporting the worldwide cleaning robot market.

Some key cleaning robot market players are iRobot Corporation, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., LG Electronics Co. Ltd., and Neato Robotics, among others.
