The Korea industrial and institutional cleaning chemicals market size is expected to reach USD 1.61 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period. The industry growth is majorly driven by the high prevalence of diseases in Korea and the emerging usage of plant-based chemicals in the country.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cancer is considered to be the deadliest disease causing approximately 10 million deaths in a year. The common types of cancers are lung, breast, colon, rectum, and prostate cancers. Hepatitis and human papillomavirus (HPV) are responsible for around 30% of cancer cases in middle and low-income countries worldwide. Unhealthy and unhygienic diets coupled with high alcohol consumption are the key causes of cancer.
Healthcare-associated infections are primarily associated with failure in the adoption of infection control practices, weak immune status, and the presence of numerous infectious agents all over healthcare units. Other factors include immunosuppression, longer stays in hospitals and intensive care units, and old age. Approximately, 20% of these infections occur in ICUs. The key pathogens responsible for healthcare-associated infections are Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium difficile, and Escherichia coli, among others. The transmission of these types of pathogens can occur through uninterrupted interaction with contaminated environment or healthcare workers. Thus, resulting in an increased demand for industrial and institutional cleaning chemicals from the healthcare sector.
However, the pressure to maintain competitive pricing while managing costs is a major market challenge. Fluctuations in raw material prices, energy costs, and manufacturing expenses can impact profitability. Additionally, price-sensitive customers and intense competition can lead to pricing pressures, leading manufacturers to find a balance between controlling cost and maintaining product quality.
