Disc scrubbers, utilizing two flat brushes to deeply clean or polish floors, represent a specific type of autonomous floor scrubber. They operate at speeds of 250-300 RPM and necessitate pre-sweeping before use. The scrubber head type, typically made from materials like nylon, abrasive bristle, and polypropylene, is selected based on the specific floor type being cleaned. The disc scrubber's ability to apply more down pressure facilitates the removal of thick buildup and dirt, while its pads and brushes are considered versatile for cleaning and polishing floors. In 2023, the market value of autonomous floor scrubbers featuring a disc scrubber head type was estimated at $656 million and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.6% to reach $1,414 million by 2029.
The retail segment held the largest revenue share in the autonomous floor scrubber market in 2023, reaching USD 231 million, with an expected surge to USD 399 million by 2029, representing a CAGR of 8.1% during the forecast period. Retail stores, including supermarkets, department stores, shopping malls, and other large retailers, attract substantial foot traffic, necessitating a clean and hygienic environment to enhance the customer experience. Consequently, maintaining cleanliness becomes a pivotal aspect of operations, thus supporting market growth.
The direct sales channel segment, with a market value of USD 599 million in 2023, is forecasted to reach USD 1,268 million by 2029, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.3% during the forecast period. This segment is anticipated to undergo significant growth through structured and consistent sales processes, which involve educating potential customers about products and expanding the customer base through inbound and outbound sales efforts. While indirect sales channels currently account for a smaller market share, they are expected to experience the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to their broader reach and ability to leverage distributor relationships.
