Indoor Air Purification Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Increasing usage of air purifier to contain airborne contaminants

An airborne disease is caused by a microorganism that is transmitted through the air. These organisms may be spread through sneezing, coughing, spraying of liquids, the spread of dust, or any activity that results in the generation of aerosolized particles. There are many airborne diseases that are of clinical importance and include bacteria, viruses, and fungi. The microorganisms may be spread through sneezing, coughing, spraying of liquids, the spread of dust, or any activity that results in the generation of aerosolized particles. The microorganisms transmitted airborne can be spread via a fine mist, dust, aerosols, or liquids. Additionally, the aerosolized particles may be generated from a source of infection, such as body secretions of an infected patient or even an animal. The infected aerosolized particles often remain suspended in the air currents and may travel considerable distances, although many particles will drop off within the vicinity. As the distance travelled of the aerosol particle increases, the risk of infection increases. Airborne precautions necessitate the prevention of infections and the use of available interventions in healthcare facilities to prevent the transmission of airborne particles such as air filters. When used properly, air cleaners and HVAC filters can help reduce airborne contaminants including viruses in a building or small space. This use of air purifier to contain airborne contaminants and infections is the reason of increasing demand of air purifier, globally; acting as a driver for Asia-Pacific indoor air purification market.

Opportunities

• Rise in demand for air filter due to health awareness among consumers

When compared to outdoor air, interior air pollution levels can be up to five times higher. Whether in the convenience of their home or place of employment, people spend more than 90% of their time indoors. Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), health and well-being are closely related. Breathing air which is free of pollutants not only improves the quality of life but also reduces the risk of respiratory infections, and minimizes the risk of developing a variety of chronic diseases.  Organizations namely American Air Filter (AAF) have a number of options to connect with the target audience and inform them about IAQ & its significance. The increase in consumer awareness towards the health impact such as irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, headaches, dizziness, and fatigue, respiratory diseases, heart disease, and cancer creates a prospect for the growth of the Asia-Pacific air purifier market. Air filters are one of the growing markets across the globe. With people becoming more aware of the need to breathe clean air that is free from allergens and disease-causing microorganisms, the demand for air purifiers has increased significantly in recent years.

Restraints/Challenges

• High costs associated with air purifiers

The importance of air purifier is increasing as the outdoor, indoor air quality is degrading due to rapid urbanization, increasing air borne infection/diseases across the globe. Air pollution is becoming more serious concern for health risk, linked to around 7 million deaths in 2012 according to a recent World Health Organisation (WHO) report. The new data further reveals a stronger link between, indoor and outdoor air pollution exposure and cardiovascular diseases, such as strokes and ischemic heart disease, as well as between air pollution and cancer. As both indoor and outdoor pollution affect health, the consumers are inclining towards air purifier in order to get good indoor air quality. This allowed the manufacturer to increase the cost associated with air purifier by increasing its technological features; in order to meet the demand globally. This high cost associated with air purifiers and smart air purifier; limits its market growth as middle class cannot afford to spend so much on an equipment. This in results act as a restraint for the growth of Asia-Pacific indoor air purification market.
