    Follow us on LinkedIn - Air purification equipment is gradually transcending its popular perception of being considered as a luxury, non-essential product. Today, thanks to painstaking manufacturer efforts, air purifier equipments are evolving into a necessity, a crucial and critical element to be a part of every modern home. The growing clamor over the health risks posed by poor indoor air quality has played an instrumental role in giving these equipments a status of indispensability. Moreover, increase in consumer spending power and investments made in home improvement also contribute to the growing use of air purification equipment. Customer base for these products today spans residential consumers who purchase these equipments under medical prescription, to consumers seeking to improve the health of their indoor environment.

    The 2007-2009 recession in retrospect, weakened the growth momentum in the North American Air Purification Equipment market. Recession induced economic and business pressures resulted in growth slowing down to single digit in the year 2009 as compared to the robust double digit growth recorded in the preceding year. Growth in the year 2009 shrank to an all time low of 3.7% largely as a result of the then depressed construction industry. Rise in unemployment, lower disposable incomes, reduction in household wealth, reduced consumer spending, depreciation in home values, high unsold home inventory, and decline in investments in new constructions and renovations all crippled the growth prospects.

    The market however staged a remarkable recovery in 2010 with growth rates returning to pre-recession levels during the year. Resurgence in growth fundamentals such as improvement in consumer income levels, and increase in spending power among others have helped boost demand for air purification equipment immediately after recession. Further, in the upcoming years, growing awareness over climate change and environmental problems will increase investments in solutions and products which offer a cleaner environment. In addition, social responsibility and ethical issues are gaining paramount importance in workplaces, which is expected to increase focus on issues related to workplace environment and health, thereby creating a fertile environment for the future growth of the air purification equipment in this space.

    Stringent regulatory mandates for improving indoor air quality at workplaces and residential buildings governed by authorities such as Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) will continue to drive demand for air purification equipment in the region over the next few years. Product innovations, which continue to help bring into the market several new air purification products with added functionalities and benefits, will drive new opportunities for the market.
