The global air purification market is likely to garner a market value of US$ 28.01 Billion in 2022 and is expected to accumulate a market value of US$ 142.93 Billion by registering a CAGR of 17.7% in the forecast period 2022-2032. Growth of the Air Purification market can be attributed to the increase in the number of vehicles on road, due to urbanization, which results in a significant amount of toxic gasses. The market for Air Purification registered a CAGR of 3.5% in the historical period 2017-2021. The number of vehicles on road has also doubled, due to urbanization, which. Old home appliances like Air conditioners and Refrigerators are major emitters of CFCs.
“Rapid urbanization, modernization, and industrialization have led to an increase in the global pollution level, which resulted in making it difficult to breathe. This is one of the biggest reasons for the increase in demand for air purifiers.”
Moreover, the number of vehicles on the road is increasing at a very high rate. The fuel gases emitted from these vehicles is very harmful. Thus, this has led to a great market opportunity for the air purifiers market. Key players and new emerging players are focusing on utilizing and providing the best of the technology in the form of air purifiers. Thus, technological up-gradation, increase in investment of the same, and research and development have contributed to the air purifiers market to expand.
The growing level of CO2 across some of the developing countries like India, Mexico, China, etc. is very high, and the major reason behind this is the high population and rapid urbanization combined with low restriction and monitoring on pollution rules and regulations.

Rising Demand for Air Purifiers across Automotive Industry to Widen the Market Prospects
There has been a continual growth witnessed in the automotive industry, which results in a vast demand for filter installation in all vehicles, ultimately influencing its demand. The growth is influenced by the trends such as vehicle miles driven, vehicle parks, as well as filters embedded in the vehicles.
Additionally, the high demand for these filters in the automotive industry is attributed to their benefits for aftermarket services. The filters are principally utilized to clean the internal combustion engines and improve efficiency while shielding automotive engine components from harmful dust particles. An air filter aims to strain the air imbibed by the engine during a series of strokes.
Increasing Demand for Reusable Air Purifiers to Propel the Market Growth
The air purifier manufacturers are competing based on dust-holding capacity, uniform air-flow supply, and filtering performance. The end-user is inclining towards sustainable alternatives, including the utilization of washable and reusable air purifiers. These filters control harmful emissions by providing high indoor air quality, attributed to their uniqueness in preventing microbiological growth.
Also, the payback on reusable filters is relatively short as it costs less than buying a new filter after every four to six months. In addition, governmental bodies and several environmental organizations are developing green building standards to provide fresh indoor and outdoor air quality in every end-use application.
As per the World Green Building Council, countries majorly focusing on green buildings are Australia with nearly 46%, Ireland with nearly 40%. The emerging countries are extensively focusing on providing energy-efficient air purifying products. Therefore, the rise in demand for green buildings with increased installation of reusable filters is bolstering air filters market growth.
The COVID-19 disruption has been a key factor resulting in the slowdown of several industries. However, the air purification market is one of the less affected markets in the HVAC system industry, due to rise in the importance of fresh air. As per the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), standard 52.2 low-efficiency filters have less than eight minimum efficiency reporting values (MERV) and are unlikely to clean air. This is attributed to its improper installation setup. ASHRAE has recommended a two-step approach for the filtration of air to mitigate the transmission of COVID-19.
The increased support by the governmental bodies, including the Federation of European Heating, ASHRAE, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Association, and others, complement the rise in demand for HEPA filters, dust collectors, and other air quality systems in such pandemic affected situations. The modern HEPA filter is utilized in industrial applications such as automotive, manufacturing, etc., and commercial applications as it possesses the ability to trap approximately 99.95% of bacterial particles that contaminates the air.
Moreover, the HEPA filters in residential applications stop the multiplication of bacterial viruses that causes breathing difficulties. The demand for the installation of air purifiers is expected to experience a rapid growth in the forthcoming years. This is attributed to the growing demand for fresh indoor air quality (IAQ) globally.
High Initial Installation and Maintenance Cost May Restrain the Air Purification Market Development
The rising awareness regarding the fresh indoor air quality or IAQ is resulting in the demand for filtration systems. However, the high maintenance cost of these filters is one of the primary factors that is restraining the market growth. The cost of replacing a filter is generally very high, i.e., around USD 40 to USD 60, as it requires regular change and service every four to six months. Further, several commercial and industrial end-users purchase low-priced filter equipment that hinders the working environment in HVAC applications. Moreover, a lack of awareness regarding the detrimental effects of bacteria and virus-contaminated air is also impeding the market's growth across the globe.
