The UV-C LED Market size is estimated at USD 0.76 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 3.39 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 34.83% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
UV-C LEDs produce UV photons through the electroluminescence of a semiconductor crystal; these semiconductor crystals are typically made of AlGaN compounds grown on sapphire or AlN substrates. These solid-state devices contain no mercury and do not rely on other substances that are subject to environmental restrictions; as a result, they may provide a regulatory-proof alternative to traditional mercury-containing UV lamps.
The UV-C LED market is highly fragmented due to the presence of both global players and small and medium-sized enterprises. Some of the major players in the market are NKFG Corporation, Nitride Semiconductor Co. Ltd, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, Lumex Inc. (ITW Inc.), and Crystal IS Inc. (Asahi Kasei Group). Players in the market are adopting partnership and acquisition strategies to enhance their product offerings and gain sustainable competitive advantage.
