Increased Janitorial Services Spur US Health Care EVS Market
More core cleaning services will boost the EVS market to US$8.7 billion by 2026
April 4, 2022
Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic there is a surge in demand for cleaning, disinfection, and infection prevention services to reduce the spread of infection in health care settings across the country.
Because of this increased focus on infection control practices combined with strict government regulations and rising cases of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs), the U.S. health care environmental services (EVS) market is projected to reach US$8.7 billion by 2026 from $6.6 billion in 2021, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% during the forecast period.
The report “US Healthcare Environmental Services Market By Type,” published by MarketsandMarkets, shows the janitorial/core-cleaning services segment of the market is expected to grow at the highest CAGR primarily due to the need for regular cleaning and keeping health facility premises clean to prevent the spread of infection among patients and staff.
Based on services type, the market is segmented into janitorial/core-cleaning services, infection control and prevention services, enhanced cleaning technology, front-of-house cleaning and brand experience, and other services.
Based on facility type, the acute-care facilities segment accounted for the largest share of the market. The market is segmented into acute-care, post-acute care, and non-acute care facilities.
The growing adoption of various outsourced cleaning services has helped acute-care facilities reduce in-house administrative costs such as the buying and maintenance costs of various cleaning technologies and supplies. These are the major factors driving the growth of this segment.
The prominent 15 players operating in the U.S. health care EVS market include Sodexo, Compass Group, Aramark, Hospital Housekeeping Systems Inc., ABM Industries Inc., Xanitos Inc., OctoClean Franchising Systems Inc., AVI Foodsystems Inc., Jani-King International Inc., Healthcare Services Group Inc., ServiceMaster Clean, Bravo Building Services, and Corvus Janitorial Systems.
