Global healthcare environmental services market is projected to witness a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period 2024-2031, growing from USD 15.02 billion in 2023 to USD 26.79 billion in 2031. The growth of the market is aided by increasing efforts of different healthcare organizations to prevent the outbreak of infections, minimize the risk of healthcare-associated diseases, and a rise in the number of surgical procedures.
The growing efforts of various governments and regulatory bodies to prevent infection control by proposing stringent regulations are further supporting the healthcare environmental services market expansion. Additionally, with the growing threat of infectious diseases, the focus on infection and hygiene control procedures by healthcare facilities has increased. The market expansion is also supported by the increase in investments towards the healthcare ecosystem, growth of the patient pool, and increasing number of clinics and hospitals.
The rising requirement for surgical procedures due to the increasing occurrence of chronic diseases and the rapid adoption of a sedentary lifestyle is further propelling the market demand. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 6 out of 10 Americans suffers at least one chronic disease such as cancer, diabetes, or heart diseases. In order to prevent the spread of infections during surgical procedures, more emphasis is being placed on preserving a safe and clean environment within the healthcare facilities.
The growing adoption of green cleaning practices in various countries around the globe, owing to rising environmental concerns, is providing lucrative growth opportunities to the market. The adoption of technologically advanced devices is further bolstering this growth.
Growing Prevalence of Different Infection Types
Due to the growing incidences of infectious diseases and rising requirement for surgical procedures, various regulatory bodies and organizations are increasingly focusing on controlling infections. According to an article published by JAMA Network, approximately 0.5%-3% of patients undergoing surgery suffer from surgical site infection. Furthermore, the rising number of hospital-acquired infections, such as catheter-associated urinary tract infections, ventilator-associated pneumonia, clostridium difficile infections, central line-associated bloodstream infections, and hospital-acquired pneumonia, is boosting the requirement for healthcare environmental services. Due to the growing threat of such infections, the investments in various infection control and prevention strategies, such as healthcare environmental services, are increasing.
Development of Technologically Advanced Solutions Supports Market Expansion
Due to the growing threat of various types of infections in different healthcare facilities, increasing investments are being made towards the development of technologically advanced infection control devices. Apart from aiding in managing the threat of rising infections, these devices also reduce the burden on healthcare staff. Strategic collaborations between various leading companies are further supporting the development of technologically advanced infection management solutions. For instance, the strategic partnership between Shyld and Shimadzu Corporation has supported the entry of the Shyld AI disinfection technology. This innovative solution kills pathogens on different surfaces with the help of UV-C light and is capable of automatically detecting threats in real-time. The technology incorporated advanced optics and artificial intelligence (AI) to revolutionize surface and indoor air disinfection. It also initiates the disfunction of surfaces that are frequently touched as soon as a room is vacated and mitigates risks by identifying human presence in real time.
North America Accounts for Significant Market Share
The increasing investments towards the improvement of the healthcare ecosystem, strong presence of leading market players, establishment of stringent regulatory guidelines on infection prevention and control, growing number of surgeries, and rising prevalence of hospital acquired infections is supporting the market expansion in North America. According to the estimates of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), approximately 1.7 million cases and 99,000 deaths related to hospital-acquired infections are noted every year in American hospitals. Of these hospital-acquired infections, 32% were urinary tract infections, 15% were lung infections, 22% were surgical site infections, and 14% were bloodstream infections. The proliferation of isolation facilities and rising demand for intensive care units (ICUs) are other major factors bolstering the market demand in the region. The rising awareness about the importance of maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in healthcare facilities, coupled with the adoption of preventive healthcare strategies, is further supporting the growth of the North America healthcare environmental services market.
Janitorial Cleaning Services Witnessing Significant Growth
The growth of janitorial cleaning services can be attributed to the rising threat of airborne infections, increasing concerns about the maintenance of a clean and hygienic environment, and growing efforts towards the minimization of healthcare associated infections. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, on any given day, approximately one in thirty-one patients admitted in hospital is suffering from at least one healthcare-associated infection. Various healthcare facilities are investing in hiring external janitorial cleaning services to boost efficiency and ease the burden of the management. The hired external janitors are professionals that are trained in a wide range of services, such as upkeep of floors, fixtures, and machinery and disinfection and cleaning. Due to these factors, the janitorial cleaning segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period.
Acute-Care Facilities Account for Significant Market Share
The rising adoption of healthcare environmental services by acute-care facilities, such as hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, academic medical institutes, military hospitals, and children's hospitals, can be attributed to the implementation of stringent infection control protocols and the growing threat of healthcare-associated infections. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), out of every 100 patients admitted to acute-care hospitals, 15 patients in middle- and low-income countries and 7 patients in high-income countries are anticipated to acquire at least one healthcare associated infection over the course of their hospital stay. The growing prevalence of various health conditions and increased requirement for extended hospital stay are further boosting the healthcare environmental services market demand by acute-care facilities.
Future Market Scenario (2024 – 2031F)
- Increasing investments towards janitorial cleaning services due to the growing threat of various infections in different healthcare facilities is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to the market.
- Rising adoption of technologically advanced solutions and devices for ensuring infection prevention is expected to boost the research activities that support the development of such devices.
- Future studies will be essential for receiving feedback and input from various end-users at multiple facilities to understand the impact of different infection control and disinfection technologies and devices.
- Growing efforts are being made to develop various technologies to maximize infection prevention with the help of AI, electronic tools (e-tools), long-lasting alcohol-free hand and surface sanitizers, and antimicrobial surfaces and textiles.
