Cleaning Services Market Growth

Cleaning services include a range of activities like window cleaning and floor care that help maintain cleanliness and hygiene of residential, commercial, or industrial settings. These services can be performed in-house or outsourced depending upon the unique requirements of facilities. The expansion of the healthcare industry is one of the primary factors driving the market growth globally. A rising preference for the outsourcing of cleaning services over the performance of in-house services is further enhancing the growth of the cleaning services market. The procurement of cleaning services for commercial space depends on various factors and these services also include high-end specialist services.

New technologies and interoperability in various cleaning equipment have resulted in higher growth of the cleaning services market. It also offers an advantage for cleaning services in the retail industry as the service helps them complete the task in a short time with limited resources.

Key Trends and Recent Developments

Rapid technological advancements; expanding healthcare sector; rising concerns of sustainability; and the growing hospitality sector are the major trends of the cleaning services market.

Global Cleaning Services Market Trends

Some service providers deploy advanced technology solutions to improve efficiency, such as high-tech cleaning equipment, productivity software, and IoT technology, which are becoming increasingly more affordable for commercial cleaning companies to implement, supporting the cleaning services market dynamics and trends. The commercial cleaning companies offer diversified specialised services to cater to the increasing customer demands.

Due to rising environmental regulations across the globe, the demand for sustainable cleaning solutions has been growing. Thus, green cleaning is a rising cleaning industry trend within the market. Green cleaning products and procedures are expected to drive future growth as consumers become environmentally conscious. Therefore, businesses should focus on going green and realising the benefits therein, reducing their environmental footprint.

The growth of the integrated facilities management market also favours the demand of the cleaning services market, especially in emerging regions like Latin America and the Asia Pacific. The market is expected to expand in the Asia Pacific, supported by rising construction activities, with construction players subcontracting cleaning services.

Industry Outlook

World population is on a perennial rise; the same is expected to be 8.12 billion internationally by mid-2024, growing annually at 0.91 percent. This has followed a pattern, which showed around 0.83 to 0.98 percent growth per year over the last five years. A growing world population leads to an increase in demand for cleaning services throughout different sectors. The increased populations within schools need increased cleaning levels to protect against the likelihood of the spread of an illness, while hospitals need intensive cleaning levels to ensure the health and safety of the patient population being treated. This too will drive the increased need for residential real estate development and the ever-increasing numbers of office workers.

As per the cleaning services industry analysis from the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of India, indicates, while just 74 airports existed between 2014 and 2023, the number had doubled to 148. Substantially, the increase in the numbers of airports in the coming decade will substantially increase the demand for the cleaning services. High levels of hygiene must characterise the airports. This is because of the immense number of passengers that transit the facilities.

High levels of healthcare spending in developed countries like Canada or France demand strict hygienic measures to avoid infections, therefore driving the need for cleaning. Lower health care expenditures in developing countries like India or Sri Lanka will still overcome these differences and come a bit better and improve on the cleaning issue as they develop their health care settings, much the same as more developed countries have. This will eventually accelerate the cleaning services demand growth globally.
