Surface Disinfectant Market: By Composition (Hydrogen Peroxide, Ammonium Compounds, Chlorine Compounds, Alcohols, Others), by Application (In-House Surfaces, Instruments, Others), By Type (Liquids, Sprays, Wipes), By End User (Hospitals, Laboratories, Pharmaceutical Companies, Households, Others) and Geography  

Surface Disinfectant Market size was valued at USD 5,289.4 million in 2023 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 8.1% from 2024 to 2030. Surface Disinfection is a method to inactivate pathogens on inanimate surfaces and in turn works to avert the spread of bacteria from person to person or object to object. The act of disinfectant surfaces regularly is a proven method of disease prevention and control and is good practice for general hygiene. The key factors driving the surface disinfectant market growth are escalating hospital-acquired infections, the subsequent rise in chronic diseases, the rising number of surgical procedures, and aggregating demand for disinfectants in the pharmaceutical industries, hospitals, clinics are anticipated to drive the surface disinfectant market over the forecast period. According to the recent research publicized by the Journal of Infection in Developing Countries in February 2023, as of 2022, the inclusive occurrence of hospital-acquired infections in Southeast Asia was 22.7 %, with the uppermost prevalence rate of 32.4% stated in Indonesia. Consequently, with the rising burden of hospital-acquired infections, the stipulation for surface disinfection rises, which is anticipated to be robust surface disinfection in the forecast period. Moreover, the tactical instigations and endorsements by the market players are also anticipated to drive the surface disinfectant market growth.

For instance, in March 2023, Neogene Company detailed that the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has sanctioned additional virucide claims to its Neogene Viroxide Super disinfectant.

Moreover, the collaborations between hospitals, clinics, and market players are anticipated to drive the surface disinfectant market in the upcoming years. However, the complications associated with the surface disinfectant market are certain chemical disinfectants cause health risks, toxicity and environmental impact, surface damage, residue build-up, and ineffectiveness against some pathogens remain significant barriers that hamper the demand for the growth of surface disinfectants in the forecast period.
