The antimicrobial furniture market was worth USD 4 billion in 2023 and will be worth USD 9.1 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8% during the forecast period.

 

The factors responsible for the growth of the Antimicrobial Furniture market include growing consciousness over cleanliness and the prevalence of diseases in healthcare, business offices, and public facilities. HAIs, including those in facilities such as hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes, affect an estimated 1.7 million patients in the United States every year; furniture with antimicrobial properties has become increasingly popular. This trend was significantly pioneered by the COVID-19 pandemic where institutions and businesses required measures to reduce the spread of viruses and bacteria in areas with high traffic. One of the recent trends is the use of antimicrobial coatings and materials when making furniture because they can prevent the spoiling of foods by bacteria on surfaces. For instance, today's furniture companies' chairs, desks, and tables come with silver-ion pockets or other antimicrobial packages. This trend is also spreading to other sectors, starting with the education sector, workplaces, and airports, where cleanliness has become key in preventing the spread of infections.

 

New prospects for growth are observed in the global Antimicrobial Furniture market, mainly in the healthcare and public facilities, as the primary focus in this sphere remains the fight against infections. Since HAIs are estimated to cost the American healthcare system between $28 and $45 billion yearly, healthcare facilities have started incorporating antimicrobial furniture to minimize contamination threats. Other developments include using copper alloy novelties and surfaces with a silver-ion layer that kills bacteria on contact. These are growing into other segments, offices, educational institutions, and public transport areas where cleanliness is paramount. The frequency of using protective measures against infections post pandemic should increase, driving the popularity of antimicrobial furniture in the industries.

North America is the largest consuming region for antimicrobial furniture today due to the tightened standards in healthcare facilities and institutions and increased focus on preventing infections across commercial establishments. Specifically, the U.S. remains the largest consumer, with healthcare facilities embracing antimicrobial furniture to reduce HAIs, which occur in one out of every 31 hospital patients daily. Other advancements include using antimicrobial materials in furniture industries, including copper materials or silver ionization, among other microbial barrier materials. For instance, healthcare facilities in the United States have started to use antimicrobial chairs, tables, and bed frames to ensure that the environment is fraught with minimal risk to patients and workers. Furthermore, the growing demand for hygiene-focused solutions in schools, offices, and airports is fueling the expansion of antimicrobial furniture beyond healthcare, solidifying North America’s leadership in this market.
