The global scrubber market is of various types like walk behind scrubbers, ride-on scrubbers, and robotic scrubbers. The global industrial scrubbers market was valued for USD 3,914 Million in 2019 and expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.0% in the forecast period. Floor scrubber is used the most for floor cleaning. It can be a simple tool like floor mop or brush, or walk-behind or a ride-on machine to clean large floors by injecting water with cleaning solution, scrubbing, and storing the residuals. With progression in technology, autonomous floor scrubbing robots are also available in the market.
The autonomous scrubbing robot is designed to sweep and collect the dust and mop the room. The sweeping and cleaning the dust from the floor happens one after another followed by mopping the room. With the help of intelligent machines in a robot can help in identify and avoid the obstacles while cleaning the robot. An autonomous algorithm which is a part of the design takes care of operating the robot automatically inside the room. The traditional method of cleaning is time-consuming and tiresome. Floor scrubbers provide an easier cleaning process, cover large surface areas, quicker dry times, and better efficiency. Floor scrubbers have less operational and maintenance which are the key drivers to grow in the forecast period.
Amongst the various scrubber types, the robotic scrubbers segment is expected to show a large scale adoption as there is a fast growth of advanced technologies in the industrial floor scrubbers across the globe. However robotic floor scrubbers are expected to rise at a higher CAGR rate over the coming years. The increasing demand for automation across industry verticals will aid this segment to grow at a rapid pace in the coming years.
Floor scrubbers market is segmented by end-users which are in transportation, Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals, Education, Government, Manufacturing and Warehousing, Hospitality and Retail, and food. Furthermore, the focus on sustainability will drive the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries in the coming years.
The floor scrubbers market is segmented by geographical region into North America, Europe, Asia-pacific, and the rest of the world. North America is leading region in this segment (33%) owing to the increasing demand from the hypermarkets in their region, Europe is being the second with respect to industrial floor scrubbers and will continue to so over the period of time. Asia-Pacific is slowly catching up due to the rapid industrialization and increasing awareness of the latest and advanced technologies.
