  • High Inclination toward Sustainability
  • Stringent Regulations to Maintain Cleanliness
  • Increased Investments in R&D Activities

Commercial Scrubbers and Sweepers Market: Segmentation

This research report includes a detailed segmentation by products, end-user, power sources, and geography.

Commercial floor sweepers and scrubbers are the most hygienic, superior, and multipurpose cleaning equipment available in the market. The scrubber segment is observing a high demand as scrubs remove dust, germs, oil, and grease from hard floors and offer highly efficient cleaning services. Europe is likely to generate the highest revenue in the commercial scrubber market during the forecast period. Commercial scrubbers are further categorized into walk-behind, ride-on, and stand-on scrubbers. While the walk-behind segment is expected to maintain its dominance, the ride-behind segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The rise of eco-friendly or green cleaning technology to reduce the risk of environmental pollution is driving growth. Smart cleaning technologies such as robotics and autonomous scrubbers are also trending in Europe.

Battery-powered scrubbers and sweepers account for the majority of the shares as they allow high maneuverability and require low maintenance. Another major factor propelling the demand for these cleaning machines is ease and convenience. Increased innovations in battery technology are likely to drive the demand for machines during the forecast period. Moreover, the growing need to reduce polluting emissions is driving scrubber manufacturers to opt for battery-powered equipment. Hence, manufacturers are adopting lithium-ion batteries owing to their high productivity, long runtime, zero maintenance, and less charging time. The demand for battery-powered equipment in North America is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period.

Contract cleaners constitute the largest segment for commercial scrubbers and sweepers. The use of high-performance commercial and industrial cleaning equipment eliminates the threat and risk of contamination to a large extent. The growing trend of outsourcing the cleaning and maintenance of public spaces is driving growth.

The use of proper commercial cleaning equipment can enable manufacturing facilities to reduce environmental pollution. Manufacturing facilities and equipment are large, heavy, and often produce a lot of dust, debris, and waste materials that require regular cleaning. The increasing use of standards and controls in production processes to maintain a pollution-free environment has become mandatory, which is likely to increase the adoption of cleaning equipment, including scrubbers and sweepers.

The maintenance of hygiene and the reduction of cross-contamination and bacterial build-up are extremely important in the food and beverage (F&B) industry. Hence, the use of industrial cleaning equipment in the F&B industry is critical. These high-performance machineries can maintain a hygienic environment where the food can be prepared, processed, packed, bottled, stored, and transported. This equipment can consistently clean to keep them free from dust and dirt. The cleaning equipment also uses fewer amounts of water and chemicals, thereby ensuring a healthy environment for processing or storing food.

The retail sector is highly competitive; hence, maintaining a clean store environment can provide market players with a competitive edge. The Clean and satisfying shopping experience will create a positive impression for customers and drive repeat business. Commercial scrubbers and sweepers will efficiently clean high-traffic areas, thereby reducing the labor cost. This professional equipment can provide efficient and effective cleaning in less time.

Stringent regulations to reduce cross-contamination and employee injury are driving the demand for professional cleaning equipment in North America. The growth in corporate profits has resulted in the increasing expenditure on cleaning services, thereby driving the sale of commercial cleaning equipment. In Canada, the growth in demand for commercial floor scrubbers and sweepers is mainly increased due to the rapid growth in construction activities and the expansion of businesses. Contract cleaners form the key potential end-users in the region. The growing demand for cleaning services in the region would further drive growth.
