The global UV LED market size stood at a value of around USD 0.78 billion in 2023. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 21.8% in the forecast period of 2024-2032 to attain a value of USD 4.58 billion by 2032.
UV LEDs or ultraviolet light-emitting diodes are devices that help to convert electrical energy into ultraviolet light. It is a semiconductor device that produces light when an electric current is passed through it. The UV LEDs operate below the temperature of 100 Fahrenheit. They are utilised in various industry verticals such as water treatment, optical data storage, polymer curing, and biological agent detection. UV LEDs offer a long operating life and are eco-friendly compared to conventional mercury UV lamps.
The history of UV LED traces back to the late 1990s with the development of high-quality gallium nitride (GaN) and aluminium gallium nitride (AlGaN) semiconductors. These materials were capable of emitting light in the UV range. In recent years, the technology has advanced to produce UV LEDs in the UVB (280-315 nm) and UVC (100-280 nm) ranges. This development has been significant for applications requiring more energetic UV light, such as sterilisation and disinfection.
The development of UV LED technology has been marked by ongoing research and innovation, aimed at improving efficiency, reducing costs, and finding new applications. UV LEDs offer several advantages over traditional UV light sources like mercury lamps, including lower power consumption, longer lifespan, more compact size, and absence of toxic mercury.

By type, the market is divided into:
Based on type, the UV-C LED segment is expected to hold a significant share of the market during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the favourable properties of UV-C LEDs, such as their high-intensity light output, long operational life, and cost-effectiveness. As a result, UV-C LEDs are increasingly being utilised in compact and point-of-use appliances such as purifiers, which is expected to enhance the growth of the global market.
UV-C LEDs are also used for the non-chemical disinfection of surfaces and packaging in the food and beverage sector, which helps extend shelf life and ensure safety.

On the basis of application, the market can be categorised into:
UV LED is extensively used in the printing sector for curing inks. This includes digital printing, screen printing, and flexographic printing. It enables high-speed curing, resulting in faster printing processes and improved productivity. In the electronics sector, UV LED curing is used for conformal coatings, encapsulants, and adhesives. It ensures quick and reliable curing, which is essential for the production of electronic components like PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards).
It is also employed in the manufacturing of medical devices for bonding and coating applications, thereby contributing to the UV LED market revenue. Its use ensures a high level of precision and cleanliness, which are critical in medical device fabrication.
Additionally, UV LEDs are being exceedingly utilised in the process of disinfection and purification of water. The German photonics company OSRAM, a leading UV LED manufacturer, has introduced its first UVC LED, which claims to eliminate up to 99.9% of viruses and bacteria in the water.
Based on end use industry, the market can be segmented into:
The UV LED market demand in the healthcare and medical sectors has been growing due to its numerous advantages and applications. UV LED technology is highly effective in killing bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. This has led to its widespread use in sterilising medical equipment, operating rooms, and other healthcare environments. The COVID-19 pandemic has particularly accelerated the adoption of UV LEDs for disinfection purposes.
UV LED curing lights are commonly used in dental procedures for hardening or curing light-sensitive resins, which are used in fillings, bonding, and coatings. The precision and speed of UV LED curing make it ideal for dental applications. It is also used in the manufacturing of medical devices, particularly for bonding and coating processes. The technology ensures a high degree of precision, reliability, and cleanliness, which are crucial in medical device production.

The regional markets for UV LEDs as analysed in the report include:
The market is experiencing significant growth and diversification across various regions and industry verticals. The UV LED market growth is attributed to the technology's eco-friendly composition, rising adoption in UV curing, and low total ownership cost. Advancements and strategic industry collaborations are also expected to foster market expansion.
In Asia Pacific, particularly in China, there is a significant demand due to the region's large population and robust manufacturing sector. The market in South America, particularly in Brazil, is also growing due to its strong industrial base and focus on sustainability.
Escalating eco-consciousness and the growing demand for safe drinking water to catalyse the market growth
UV LEDs are being adopted in various industry verticals due to the growing environmental concerns globally. Conventional UV lamps, such as mercury and amalgam, are associated with short life and high power consumption and are also known to contain chemical components, such as ozone, that are harmful to the human body. In this regard, UV LEDs offer an eco-friendly alternative as they do not contain any harmful chemical components and require low energy.
Furthermore, increasing demand for safe drinking water is being observed in various regions of the world due to the steadily increasing population, which is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, according to the UN statistics.
Therefore, UV LEDs are being increasingly used in the water purification and disinfection process due to the absence of any harmful chemicals. In the water, UV-C photons enter the cells of bacteria and damage the nucleic acid, which renders it microbiologically inactive. A similar method is applied in air purification solutions as well.
The Asia Pacific to Occupy a Significant Share of the Market
The Asia Pacific region is predicted to account for a significant UV LED market share. This surge can be attributed to the increasing investments by the leading manufacturers to develop and expand UV LED technology in the region. In addition, the heightened demand for water sterilisation and purification to meet the growing water demand, coupled with the rapidly increasing population in the region, is aiding the market growth.
According to the Global Water Security and the Sanitation Partnership Annual report, issued by the World Bank, more than 2.2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water globally, while the overall water demand is expected to increase by 20-30% by 2050. These factors are estimated to positively impact the Asia Pacific UV LED market value in the forecast period.
