The global parts washer market size is anticipated to reach USD 3,026.8 million by 2030 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The parts washer market has seen evolving demand trends over recent years, driven by various factors across multiple industries. Moreover, there's an increasing emphasis on sustainability and environmental regulation compliance. Companies are seeking parts washers that use eco-friendly solvents or aqueous-based cleaning solutions, instead of traditional solvent-based systems to minimize their ecological footprint and adhere to stringent environmental regulations.
The complexity and precision of components in the automotive and aerospace sectors have grown. This has led to a surge in demand for high-precision parts washers capable of cleaning intricate parts thoroughly without causing damage. Such washers often feature advanced technologies, including ultrasonic cleaning and high-pressure jets, to meet the meticulous cleaning standards required in these industries.
Moreover, the rise of automation and smart manufacturing practices have influenced the parts washer market. Manufacturers are increasingly integrating smart features into parts washers, such as IoT connectivity and automated load and unload systems, to enhance efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve cleaning consistency. These smart parts washers can be easily integrated into existing manufacturing lines, offering real-time monitoring and analytics to optimize the cleaning process.
Further, the global expansion of manufacturing activities, especially in emerging economies, has increased the demand for parts washers. As manufacturing sectors in countries like China, India, and Brazil continue to grow, the need for efficient and effective parts cleaning solutions is also rising. This is not only driving the overall market growth but also encouraging manufacturers to develop more cost-effective and versatile parts washer solutions to cater to a broader range of customers.

Based on cleaning method, the aqueous-based parts washers segment holds 42.5% of the volume share in 2023. Unlike solvent-based cleaners, aqueous-based systems typically have lower flammability and reduced volatility, minimizing fire hazards and improving workplace safety. Companies operating in the manufacturing sector are increasingly adopting these parts washers to ensure worker safety and avoid legal disputes. Therefore, the growing emphasis on safety and environmental compliance is expected to drive segment growth.
Solvent-based parts washers are valued for their versatility and ability to clean a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, and ceramics. This property allows them to be used across diverse industrial applications where several types of parts and components require cleaning.
Based on operation type, manual parts washers are also preferred in environments wherein production volumes are not consistently high, or batch sizes vary frequently. In such scenarios, investing in automated equipment is not economical or practical. Manual washers act as flexible and efficient solutions without requiring a significant capital outlay.
Companies operating within the parts washermarket are CRC Industries, NCH Corporation, Cleaning Technologies Group, DENIOS among others adopt various strategies such as product launches, mergers & acquisitions, partnerships, and certifications. For instance in April 2021, Valiant TMS constructed a new 48,000 sq ft engineering and assembly center. This facility is crucial for the company’s ongoing growth in the region.
