United Kingdom (UK) Air Purifier Market Overview, 2028

Air quality is a growing worry on many people's minds, with pollution produced by things such as road traffic and pollen impacting the quality of the air both inside and outside our houses. To fight this, the finest air purifiers may be a useful addition to a house, helping to eliminate pollution particles that can enter a home every time a door or window is opened. Every year, over 7 million people are killed by air pollution. The vast majority of these fatalities occur in poorer nations, where solid fuel is frequently burned in inadequately ventilated areas. However, between 26,000 and 38,000 of those fatalities occur in the United Kingdom. People in the United Kingdom spend more than 80% of their time indoors, whether at home, works, school, or while commuting. As a result, it is critical to ensure that the air inside those confined locations is safe to breathe. According to statistics released by the UK Health Security Agency in 2022, the most current estimate is that long-term exposure to polluted air causes 29,000–43,000 deaths in persons aged 30 and over in the United Kingdom. Furthermore, nitrogen dioxide pollution, the most dangerous pollutant, should not exceed 40 micrograms per cubic meter of air, according to the United Kingdom government. However, nitrogen dioxide levels exceeded the allowed limit in 10 of the 43 national reporting zones in the United Kingdom in 2021, which was twice as high as in 2020. As a result of growing pollution levels and an increasing number of fatalities, the air purifier industry is predicted to expand. According to the research report "United Kingdom Air Purifier Market Overview, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the market is anticipated to add USD 349.52 Million during the forecast period. Air purifiers are devices that gather and decompose air pollutants, including formaldehyde, pollution, germs, allergens, and so on. Growing levels of air pollution, an increase in the number of households, an increase in the incidence of lifestyle illnesses, and an increase in the number of pet owners are predicted to drive the UK air purifier market. All of which are likely to be powered by rising disposable income levels. In the United Kingdom, the primary causes of air pollution are automobile emissions and smoke from coal-fired power plants. The country's need for air purifiers is growing as the country's automobile fleet expands and people become more aware of the negative impacts of air pollution on human health. In recent years, the industry has seen an increase in the number of air-cleaning systems, especially when it was discovered that COVID was an airborne illness. Some devices operate by thermal or photocatalytic oxidation, while others operate through adsorption, filtration, UV germicidal irradiation, ion production, and electrostatic precipitation. Air purifiers do not consume a lot of power. They have a maximum wattage ranging from 40W to 200W (even the largest ones top out at 100W) at the highest speed settings. You can simply run an air purifier on a lower power setting of 10 to 30 watts.

The eyes, nose, throat, lungs, and respiratory system, as well as the heart and blood vessels that carry blood, can all be harmed by air pollution. Short-term exposure to polluted air can cause an increase in the incidence of asthma, changes in lung function, coughing, wheezing, and breathing problems, as well as an increase in respiratory and cardiovascular hospital admissions and mortality. Exposure to polluted air over long periods of time (years or lives) may result in shortened life expectancy due to cardiovascular illnesses, respiratory problems, and lung cancer. Furthermore, according to the United Kingdom Office for Health Improvement and Disparities, air pollution damages the brain, causing dementia and cognitive decline, as well as a variety of birth-related disorders such as low birth weight and developmental abnormalities. thus resulting in increased demand for air purifiers in the country. Also with increased demand for air purifiers, several firms have begun to focus on technological developments in the product, such as smart air purifiers that link to smartphones via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. For example, in 2022, Air Versa announced the Purelle Smart Air Purifier, which can be managed through a smartphone via Bluetooth connectivity and also operated by any Home Kit-compatible application. It also has a touch-sensitive digital display with a child lock, a sleep mode that turns out all of the unit's lights, a timer function, fan speed, and filter life indicators. It also shows the quantities of particulate matter (PM2.5) in the ambient air, which is the most dangerous pollutant. As a result of technology breakthroughs and smart features in air purifiers, demand is increasing among consumers. On the basis of technology, HEPA filters dominated the market and are projected to have significant growth during the forecast period. HEPA filters are extremely effective at capturing airborne particles such as pollen, dust, smoke, and bio-contaminants. HEPA filters' superior quality and dependability in removing airborne particles are projected to drive product penetration in the market. Other types of air purifiers mentioned are activated carbon, ionized filters, and others. UV irradiation, photocatalytic oxidation, ozonation, non-thermal plasma, electrostatic precipitators, etc. are types of technologies mentioned by others. In terms of application, the commercial segment led the market in 2022. Hospitals, workplaces, hotels, educational facilities, movie theatres, retail malls, conference centers, and other recreational facilities are among the commercial applications of air purifiers. Air purifiers with activated carbon and HEPA are used in hotels and restaurants to remove airborne particles, smoke, and odors from the air, thereby improving the quality of the air. On the basis of mounting type, the market is segmented into fixed and portable. The portable segment dominated the market due to its portability, simple operation without any structural changes in the house, and easy maintenance.
