Joel Houghton patented the first mechanical dishwasher in the United States in the 1850s. This device was a wooden box with a hand-turned wheel that splattered water on dishes. Dishwashers, however, did not become commercially available until the 1880s. An American socialite named Josephine Cochrane invented the first practical dishwasher in 1886. Cochrane's dishwasher was designed to clean dishes faster than her servants, who frequently chipped or broke her fine china. Her dishwasher was equipped with a motor that drove a copper boiler and spray arms that sprayed hot soapy water onto the dishes. Cochrane's dishwasher was a success, and she went on to found the KitchenAid Company. Dishwashers remained a luxury item for the wealthy in the early twentieth century. Dishwashers did not become more affordable and popular among the middle class until the 1950s. Manufacturers began experimenting with new designs and technologies, such as using steam and introducing plastic tubs. The introduction of built-in dishwashers, which were designed to be installed beneath kitchen counters, advanced dishwasher technology even further in the 1960s. These machines were smaller and more efficient than their predecessors, and they contributed to the widespread adoption of dishwashers in many American homes.

North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, the Middle East, and Africa account for the great majority of the global dishwasher market. Regionally, the Europe market is expected to account for the largest revenue share of the global dishwasher market in 2022, with a share of 39.26%. This is due to the widespread use of dishwashers in various commercial and residential sectors in European countries such as Germany, the United Kingdom, and Spain. Furthermore, a large consumer base is willing to purchase a dishwasher and increase household spending. Furthermore, the North America region is expected to grow at a significant rate due to the expansion of the manufacturing bases of prominent companies in Canada and the United States, such as GE Appliances, The Samsung Group, Robert Bosch GmbH, and others. This is likely to boost the consumption rate of dishwashers among the region's population. The growing preference for a hassle-free lifestyle in Asia-Pacific, as well as the growing industrial application of dishwashers, is supporting the region's dishwasher industry's growth. Significant changes in living standards, as well as increased urbanization, are taking place in developing countries such as China and Japan.



Based on product type, the global dishwasher market is segmented into two types: built-in and freestanding. Among these, freestanding models dominated the dishwasher market, accounting for more than 85% of the total. The ease of movement of freestanding products makes them popular among consumers. So even though freestanding products are easily movable, commercial customers prefer them. Customers benefit from extra storage space with freestanding products, and the top of the machine is typically coated with countertop materials or cutting boards. During the forecast period, the Built-in segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR. In general, built-in products have more features than freestanding products, such as specialized wash cycles, targeted sprays, and multiple spray arms. The growing popularity of modular kitchens is driving up demand for built-in kitchen appliances. Due to the increasing importance of compact and small houses, consumers place a premium on kitchen space and storage area planning. Continuous advancements, such as flexible interior layout, LED touch panels, push drawers, and a sleek appearance, have fueled demand for built-in products. Because of their automatic programmers and flexible interior arrangement features, wall-mounted and drawer-style built-in washers have grown in popularity in recent years.

Markets are divided into two categories based on application type: residential and commercial. In 2022, the residential application led the global dishwasher market. Household appliance penetration is expected to remain a key driver of growth. Changing lifestyles, as well as increased sanitation awareness, are expected to drive household demand for the product. Furthermore, rising spending on modular and designer kitchens will have a positive impact on the market. During the forecast period, the commercial application is expected to grow at the fastest rate, with a CAGR of more than 9%. Due to the product's ability to clean a large number of dishes and glassware efficiently, its use in commercial foodservice sectors such as restaurants, pubs, hotels, and cafés has grown significantly. Moreover, dishwashers have helped food services maintain the necessary cleanliness and hygiene to ensure an efficient service workflow.

The global dishwasher market can be divided into multi-brand stores, specialty stores, online stores, and others based on distribution channels. Multi-brand stores have the largest market share in the dishwasher market because they offer a diverse range of dishwashers from various brands, allowing customers to select from a diverse range of products. Customers can thus compare different brands and models and select the dishwasher that best meets their needs and budget. During the forecast period, the CAGR for the online channel is the highest. Furthermore, due to the increased internet penetration, ease and convenience of shopping, and increased popularity of online retail platforms such as eBay, Walmart, Amazon, Flipkart and others, online retail is expected to be the trending channel around the world.

Start-ups in the global dishwasher market that provide innovative solutions to the industry Here are some examples: Tetra is a start-up that has developed a compact, countertop dishwasher that can wash up to two place settings at a time. The dishwasher uses less water and energy than traditional dishwashers and can be controlled using a smartphone app. Furthermore, Heatworks has developed a dishwasher called the Tetra Countertop Dishwasher, which uses an innovative technology that heats water instantly to the correct temperature without the need for a heating element. The dishwasher is small enough to fit on a countertop and can wash up to 10 plates or 12 pint glasses at once. Moreover, OssDign is a Swedish start-up that has developed a 3D-printed ceramic implant technology for bone repair and regeneration. While not directly related to dishwashers, this technology can be used to create high-precision and durable components for dishwashers and other appliances. In addition to Kiverdi, there is a start-up that is developing a technology to convert carbon dioxide into high-value proteins and oils. This technology can be used to create sustainable materials for dishwashers and other appliances. In addition, TerraWash is a start-up that has created the TerraWash+Mg, a chemical-free, all-natural detergent alternative for dishwashers. This product uses magnesium to break down grease and food residue on dishes without the need for harsh chemicals.

Restraints:
In some cultures or regions, there may be a preference for traditional handwashing of dishes. This can make dishwashers less popular and limit market growth in these areas. Furthermore, Dishwashers require both water and energy to operate, which can lead to higher utility bills for consumers. In regions where water and energy costs are high, this can make dishwashers less attractive to consumers. Moreover, n smaller kitchens, there may be limited space to install a dishwasher, which can deter some consumers from purchasing one. This is particularly true in apartments and other small living spaces.

Opportunities:
Rapid technological advancements, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and smart home technologies, provide manufacturers with an opportunity to develop and market advanced dishwashers that provide greater convenience and efficiency. Furthermore, as people become more aware of the environmental impact of energy consumption and the need to reduce carbon footprint, there is a growing demand for energy-efficient appliances, including dishwashers. This gives manufacturers an opportunity to develop and market dishwashers that use less water and energy.

Trends:
Dishwashers that are connected and smart are becoming increasingly popular, allowing users to control and monitor their dishwashers remotely via smartphone apps. These dishwashers can also adjust their settings automatically based on the load, making them more energy-efficient. In addition, voice-activated control is becoming more popular in the dishwasher market, allowing users to control their dishwashers with voice commands. Furthermore, manufacturers are developing dishwashers with adjustable racks and loading options, allowing users to customise the interior to fit dishes of varying sizes and shapes.
