Global Pressure Washer Market Trends:

Increasing Utilization in the Food and Beverage Industry

The escalating utilization of pressure washers in the food and beverage (F&B) industry to maintain hygiene, cleanliness, and remove stubborn residues is significantly driving the pressure washer market demand. Moreover, the implementation of stringent government regulations regarding safety and hygiene in the food and beverage industry is also augmenting the adoption of pressure washers. Additionally, the expanding F&B sector, along with the increasing number of restaurants and food chains, is further contributing to the market growth. In 2021, consumer spending reached almost GBP 118 Billion (US$ 140 Billion) in the United Kingdom. According to gov.uk, the food industry also had a central role in the government's leveling up agenda in June 2022. It is present in every part of the country. It is the largest manufacturing sector in the United Kingdom, more significant than automotive and aerospace combined. Furthermore, the highest risk for the food industry is food contamination. Preventing microbial and cross-contamination becomes crucial to avoid paying the heavy economic sanctions provided for those who do not abide by the rules of good manufacturing practices (GMP) or those who do not implement the HACCP protocol in the manufacturing process organization. Using pressure washers eliminates the possibility of food contamination, therefore, such regulations will create a positive outlook for the future of pressure washer market.

The new product line includes DYLECT Ultra Clean, DYLECT Ultra Flow, DYLECT Ultra Force, and DYLECT Ultra Power, with prices ranging from Rs 4,999 to Rs 8,999. These innovative high-pressure washers aim to enhance vehicle maintenance in India, catering to the mid-premium segment of the auto accessories industry. Similarly, MUC-OFF, a vehicle care products company, launched a bike-specific pressure washer in the USA. Apart from this, the escalating sales of both commercial and passenger vehicles are also driving demand for the pressure washer market products. Passenger Cars market unit sales are expected to reach 75.16m vehicles in 2028. Consequently, the market is poised to witness significant growth in pressure washer market share.

Shifting Preference from Manual Cleaning to Equipment Cleaning

Shifting consumer trends toward the usage of cleaning equipment over manual cleaning, along with the increasing income of the global population, is further catalyzing the market for pressure washers in residential units. Additionally, the rising awareness among houseowners regarding the importance of maintaining cleanliness and hygiene is also contributing to the market growth.
