Antimicrobial Copper-Touch Display Global Market Report 2025

The antimicrobial copper-touch display market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $1.26 billion in 2024 to $1.55 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.9%. The growth during the historic period is driven by rising awareness of infection control, higher hygiene and sanitation standards, increasing disease outbreaks, government health regulations, and growing investments in healthcare infrastructure.

The antimicrobial copper-touch display market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.5 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.5%. The growth projected for the forecast period is supported by increasing demand from the healthcare sector, expansion in the retail and education sectors, rising public health safety awareness, government programs and incentives, and ongoing digital transformation initiatives. Key trends in the forecast period include growing demand for smart infrastructure and contactless interfaces, integration with digital smart interfaces, innovations in eco-friendly and recyclable copper materials, incorporation with telemedicine and remote learning technologies, and the emergence of startups and strategic partnerships in antimicrobial technology development.

The rising incidence of healthcare-associated infections is expected to drive growth in the antimicrobial copper-touch display market. Healthcare-associated infections are acquired by patients during treatment for other conditions within healthcare settings. These infections are increasing due to the growing number of immunocompromised patients, who are more vulnerable to pathogens present in hospitals. Antimicrobial copper-touch displays provide continuously self-sanitizing surfaces that reduce microbial contamination, lowering the risk of cross-transmission in high-contact healthcare environments and improving patient safety. For example, in May 2025, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reported that during 2023-24, approximately 150,000 of the 12.6 million hospitalisations involved one or more hospital-acquired complications, with rates of 1.9 per 100 hospitalisations in public hospitals and 0.8 per 100 in private hospitals. The rising incidence of healthcare-associated infections is therefore supporting growth in the antimicrobial copper-touch display market.

The increasing adoption of telemedicine is expected to propel the antimicrobial copper-touch display market. Telemedicine enables remote healthcare delivery using telecommunications technology to diagnose, treat, and monitor patients from a distance. Its adoption is growing due to the need for enhanced infection control measures, as healthcare facilities increasingly use digital devices and touch surfaces with antimicrobial properties to prevent cross-contamination between patients and healthcare workers. Telemedicine complements antimicrobial copper-touch displays by reducing in-person contact while still providing essential care, enhancing the displays’ continuous antimicrobial action to lower pathogen transmission risks. For example, in February 2023, Rock Health reported that 80 percent of survey respondents had used telemedicine at some point, an 8-percentage point increase from 72 percent in 2021. Increasing telemedicine adoption is therefore driving growth in the antimicrobial copper-touch display market.

In September 2022, Teck Resources Limited, a Canada-based natural resource company, partnered with Science World British Columbia to install antimicrobial copper surfaces and promote public education. The partnership aims to improve visitor safety through antimicrobial copper surfaces while raising awareness of copper’s health benefits and the role of metals in daily life. Interactive exhibits, such as the Geology Science Exhibit, highlight these benefits and inspire future generations to explore STEAM fields that drive innovation and sustainability. Science World British Columbia is a Canada-based non-profit science education organization that provides interactive exhibits and learning experiences to engage the public in STEAM education and foster curiosity, creativity, and innovation.

The regions covered in antimicrobial copper-touch display report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East and Africa.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid rise in U.S. tariffs and the subsequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are having a major impact on the electrical and electronics sector, with semiconductors, display panels, and rare-earth metals (essential for batteries and motors) subject to steep duties. Consumer electronics brands face profit erosion, as competitive markets limit their ability to pass costs to buyers. Industrial electronics manufacturers, meanwhile, grapple with delayed projects due to shortages of tariff-impacted components like printed circuit boards. Companies are responding by relocating assembly to tariff-exempt countries, increasing inventory buffers, and redesigning products to reduce dependency on restricted materials.

This antimicrobial copper-touch display market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

An antimicrobial copper-touch display is a screen coated or embedded with copper, which naturally inhibits the growth of bacteria, viruses, and other microbes. The antimicrobial properties of copper help reduce surface contamination and support a cleaner environment. This technology maintains hygiene on frequently touched interactive displays without compromising visual or functional performance, ensuring clear image quality, responsive touch functionality, and long-term durability even with heavy usage.

The primary product types of antimicrobial copper-touch displays include monitors, kiosks, tablets, interactive whiteboards, and other types. A monitor is a touch-enabled display, often treated with antimicrobial copper, that provides visual output and allows direct user interaction while minimizing microbial contamination. These displays are distributed through channels such as direct sales, distributors, online retail, and other avenues, and are used by end-users including hospitals and clinics, commercial establishments, educational institutions, industrial facilities, and other sectors.

The countries covered in the antimicrobial copper-touch display market report are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, South Korea, UK, USA, Canada, Italy, Spain.
