Autonomous Professional Cleaning Robot Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report, Competitive Strategies, 2020
The global autonomous professional cleaning robot market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth can be attributed to the increasing adoption of vacuum cleaners in industrial and commercial applications. The growth can also be attributed to the growing concerns toward maintaining proper hygiene in the wake of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which is driving the adoption of autonomous professional cleaning robots, particularly in commercial spaces, such as retail stores, hypermarkets, hospitals, and corporate offices, among others. Cleaning the carpets and floors of commercial spaces, such as corporate offices and retail stores, can be a time-consuming job. Hence, operators of commercial spaces have started opting for portable and automated cleaning systems. Moreover, given the outbreak of the pandemic, operators of commercial spaces are also keen on curbing human contact, following social distancing, and undertaking cleaning processes at regular intervals. Such initiatives are expected to drive the adoption of autonomous professional cleaning robots over the forecast period.
Advances in the latest technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and visualization, and the continued adoption of these technologies in cleaning robots have made modern cleaning robots more efficient and accurate. At the same time, the continued developments in wireless communication and AI-enabled operating systems are allowing users to control the cleaning robots remotely through smartphones or other devices. For instance, Whiz, the autonomous cleaning robot introduced by SoftBank Robotics in November 2018, leverages Brain OS, an AI platform by Brain Corp., and Whiz Connect, a telemetry software developed by SoftBank Robotics, to allow the users to locate the robot and gauge its performance.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in Q1/2020 and Q2/2020 is particularly driving the demand for autonomous professional cleaning robots across healthcare establishments and corporate offices. Cleaning robot AI platform providers, such as Brain Corp. and Emerj, are responding to the situation by launching programs for donating robots for supporting essential businesses. For instance, in April 2020, Brain Corp. launched the robot relief program worth USD 1.6 million. The program covers essential businesses, including hospitals, grocery stores, and organizations providing professional cleaning services. Such initiatives are anticipated to drive the trend of procuring cleaning robots on monthly subscriptions. Also, owing to the high initial investment, end users are opting for subscription model on a monthly basis, which costs around USD 500 to 1,300, instead of procuring the box sell unit. The subscription model has enabled various end users such as hospitals, corporate offices, and retail stores among others to use a particular robot on trial basis, prior to opting a contract-based service.
However, the regulations being imposed by environmental safety agencies for robotic vacuum cleaners are anticipated to hinder the market growth to a certain extent. For instance, the energy labeling rule imposed by the European Environment Agency (EEA) for robots restricts the use of robotic vacuums that are more powerful than 900W. Similarly, the Commission Regulation (EU) No 666/2013 directive for eco-design of vacuum cleaners launched by the European Commission is aimed at improving the environmental performance of vacuum cleaners.
