According to the new research report titled 'Light Control Switches Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis,' the market is expected to reach US$ 12,696.1 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 6.8% from 2021 to 2028.
The real estate industries in developed and developing countries have experienced rapid growth over the years with the rise in investments by both private and public entities to develop advanced infrastructures, including hospitals, shopping complexes, and other commercial buildings. This is boosting the light control switches market. A few of the major ongoing or future commercial construction projects across the world are mentioned below.
Lighting plays a crucial role across commercial complexes, thereby bolstering the demand for cost and energy-efficient lighting systems. This is directly driving the demand for light control switches, thus boosting the growth of the light control switches market size.
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic hindered the growth of the light control switches market in 2020. The social restrictions imposed by governments and the temporary shutdown of construction activities across developed and developing countries declined the demand for light control switches in residential, commercial, and industrial sectors as well as public utilities. Additionally, in 2020, disruptions in supply chains adversely affected the manufacturing of the light control switches, leading to low production volumes. This negatively impacted the light control switches market growth.
The lockdown measures, imposed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, substantially affected the demand of light control switches and generation mix since increased electronic consumption could not compensate for considerable decreases in industrial, commercial, and tertiary operations. The severity and length of the measures imposed during the lockdown declined the demand for switches. Different European Countries had different COVID-19 protocols. Countries, such as Italy, Germany, and France, established rigorous containment measures, whereas other countries, such as Sweden and Switzerland, took a softer approach. In 2020, due to changes in social habits and the closure of factories, the light control switches market growth declined significantly in comparison to 2019.
Many industries, such as manufacturing and construction, have been hindered by the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, the manufacturing companies in Europe were negatively affected as they made losses due to a decline in sales of products and services to consumers. The growth of the light control switches market in Europe also declined in 2020 due to the outbreak. The imposition of lockdowns closed various businesses and industrial operations. Thus, the demand for standalone switch solutions and integrated switch solutions in commercial, residential, public utilities, and industrial end-users declined.
From mid-2021, most businesses and industrial operations in Europe reopened and have been supporting the Europe light control switches market size since then. There is a high spending on installing control switches in residential, commercial buildings, and industries. The awareness regarding the importance of smart switches is increasing due of the pandemic. Hence, the light control switches market is expected to grow in the future as construction work has resumed.
The light control switches market is segmented on the basis of switch solution, connection type, and end user. Based on switch solution, the light control switches market is bifurcated into standalone switch solution and integrated switch solution. Based on connection type, the light control switches market is bifurcated into wired and wireless. Based on end user, the light control switches market is segmented into commercial, residential, industrial, and public utilities. Geographically, the light control switches market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America.
The use of light control switches across the commercial sector offers custom lighting and touchless controls, and supports rigorous hygiene practices. Advancements in lighting control switches meant for commercial applications, coupled with the rise in demand for efficient light control switches from industries such as healthcare, are further contributing to the growth of the light control switches market. Hospitals use light control switches to control the lighting systems across hospital rooms. Light dimmer switches with LED lamps or pulse-width modulation (PWM) controllers with LED lamps are adopted actively to adjust the lighting density across patient wards and surgery rooms in hospitals. The hospitals use regular ON/OFF switches in this circuit to regulate the lights in three different ways - maximum light, medium light, and minimum light.
Light control switch manufacturers operating in the global light control switches market have increased their investments in offering light control switches specifically designed for commercial applications. For instance, Legrand North America, LLC. offers radiant 20A Wave Switch integrated with touch-free technology for commercial applications. This technology supports the hygienic operation of switches across commercial complexes, which remain crowded with a larger number of individuals, thereby ensuring safety from germs and diseases. Thus, a rise in the integration of light control switches from both the demand and supply sides is expected to contribute to the growth of the global light control switches market during the forecast period.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Light Control Switches Market
There has been a disruption in the supply chain of many industries due to restrictions in logistics and the closing of manufacturing facilities. In the region, the COVID-19 outbreak has negatively impacted manufacturing and construction businesses in four critical areas—supply chain/operations, workforce, 2020 investments, and product offering. Even though all construction activities have been allowed to continue in most parts of the US and Canada since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, many projects in the bidding or final planning stages have been delayed or cancelled. As a result, the companies operating in the light control switches market have stopped the production of a product for some time.
Nonetheless, in 2021, with the uplifting of lockdown restrictions and vaccination processes, the manufacturing plants have started again, which helps in creating a positive scenario for the light control switches market growth. The ongoing infrastructure investments and smart city projects have added momentum to the region’s construction industry. Engineering and construction firms are key enablers of this powerful vision for upgrading infrastructure to incorporate sensing technology and data analytics that could contribute to making buildings and demand for switches high.
The global light control switches market is analyzed based on geography - North America, Europe, APAC, MEA, and SAM. The APAC accounted for the highest share in the global light control switches market in 2020 and is also expected to grow at the largest CAGR over the forecast period. The rising investment in infrastructural developments across the region across sectors like residential, commercial, and industrial segments is driving the demand for lighting control switches over the years. Lighting systems being one of the major parts of any infrastructural development, the rise in newer and redevelopment construction projects indirectly impacts the demand for lighting solutions and light control switches. Additionally, the region over the years has also experienced a significant rise in the adoption of IoT connecting lighting systems thereby influencing the adoption of smart switches. These factors are further contributing to the growth of the light control switches market.
