The UAE air purifiers market is expected to grow during the forecast period as a result of growing harmful gas emissions from manufacturing plants, expanding industrial sector, and rising air pollution due to the process of fuel extraction are severely impacting the air quality severely within the UAE. The use of air purifiers is increasing to help refresh the stagnant air in order to protect against viruses and infection. Therefore, the market is expected to witness significant demand for air purifiers in the UAE during the projected period.
Several factors, including rising awareness about healthy living, changing lifestyle preferences, and government initiatives toward controlling air pollution in the country, are expected to drive the market in the upcoming years. For instance, the biggest threat to human health from the environment is air pollution. Nine out of ten individuals breathe contaminated outdoor air that exceeds the World Health Organization's standards, and there are 6.5 million deaths each year from exposure to indoor and outdoor air pollution. Particulate matter, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide are just a few of the air pollutants that have repercussions beyond just our health. They also have an impact on our economy and society.
In 2021, the air quality was one of the major issues for its residents and government. So, in order to combat this problem, the country's government came up with the "UAE National Vision for 2021". The basic aims of this initiative were to raise the air quality from its current level of 90%. To achieve this goal, the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment worked with public and private sector partners to support national initiatives in a variety of ways, such as increasing the usage of modern technology and methods and monitoring various pollutant types.
Dubai is the most polluted city in the UAE, with vehicles being the main source of pollution, emissions from factories and industrial areas, and the extraction of natural resource reserves such as oil consumption. For instance, in 2022, Dubai's air quality index was PM10 which is 3.9 times higher than WHO's (World Health Organization) annual air quality guideline. Additionally, 3.5 million people are expected to live in Dubai as of 2022, according to government estimates.
Technical Advancement Increasing the Market Growth
By creating new product lines and products that have smart features, the market is expected to grow during the forecast period. The colorless gas pollutant is emitted by furniture and timber products such as plywood and fiberboard that include formaldehyde-based resins, as well as by insulating materials and goods such as paint, wallpaper, varnish, and home cleaning supplies. Therefore, manufacturers are developing more significant products. For instance, in 2022, Dyson launched a new product line of air purifier formaldehyde, which features innovative solid-state formaldehyde detection technology and is intended to catch ultra-fine dust and allergens while eradicating potentially hazardous volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including formaldehyde. Therefore, companies are developing new products to influence market growth.
Emissions From Fuel Combustion for Energy is Influencing the Market Growth
There has been a surge in the usage of fossil fuels and private vehicles, a number of industrial pollutants, and increasing oil consumption. For instance, the United Arab Emirates oil consumption, which was estimated to be 952.376 barrels per day in December 2021, is increasing at a rate of 13.69% on an average year. In a similar vein, in 2021, 6.72 billion cubic feet of fossil fuels were consumed daily, which fuel the market demand for air purifiers.
