During the forecast period, it is expected that the size of the Japan Air Purifiers Market will increase at a remarkable CAGR. The rising incidence of airborne diseases and the increasing pollution are the primary factors driving the air purifier market's expansion. The other main factors projected to propel the industry's rise include a decrease in life expectancy rate, increased disposable income, and increased health consciousness. The demand for air pollution controlling technologies are expected to rise in the future years.
Air purifiers remove various indoor air pollutants, preserving one's health. HEPA-technology filters on air purifiers can capture 99.7% of the airborne particulate matter (PM) circulating in a home.
To estimate the number of people who die prematurely from five key health conditions linked to PM2.5 particles, including infectious diseases and strokes, the researchers integrated their findings with demographic data
The World Health Organization predicts that PM2.5, or small particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers or less, will cause 4 million early deaths annually.
Japan's manufacturing industry causes 17,000 domestically premature deaths a year. Due to the harmful health impacts of PM2.5 particles released by industrial plants and coal power stations; the average life expectancy is 76 years old
The domestic figure is far lower than the early deaths estimated outside the nation, highlighting the reality that Japan's consumption makes other nations bear an unfair share of the burden of the atmospheric pollution brought on by its supply chain activity.

Reduction in Airborne Diseases is Fueling Market Growth
Microbes that are floating around spread airborne infections such as flu and the common cold. It's not unusual for those other family members to become ill after one member contracts the flu. Everyone is breathing the same air, which is contaminated with bacteria and viruses.
These germs and viruses are captured by air purifiers with HEPA filters. By eliminating the source of airborne illnesses, you can protect your family and yourself, if you share a home with young children, elderly adults, or anybody else who has a compromised immune system. This will cause the market to grow in the upcoming years.
Maintenance Overheads Hinder the Market Growth
Keeping your indoor air purifier running smoothly can involve some costs that can really vary. You've got to be careful about maintaining it, because how well those parts and pieces work directly impacts how well the air purifier cleans your air! Just buying a new one won't solve the problem – it will just cost you more in the long run. Cleaning or swapping out the filters can be a surprisingly expensive chore, and it needs to be done regularly. That's actually one of the things holding back the air purifier industry those high maintenance costs. You're often looking at spending USD 40 to 60 on a new filter every four to six months because they need regular replacements and service.
Noise from Air Purifiers may Hinder the Market Growth
Air purifiers? Yeah, they make a little noise, even though they're not exactly loud. You're usually looking at something between 30 and 40 decibels for a quiet one – think gentle rain or a soft whisper. But watch out, some can crank up to 70 decibels! That's like having traffic right in your room, and nobody wants that. Honestly, all that noise and even the light can be a real pain, especially when you're trying to sleep. And because of this noise thing, it's actually slowing down how many people are buying them, which is a bummer.
Technological Advancement Fuels Market Growth
Japan's known for being super innovative, so things are changing fast there, especially when it comes to tech. Take Nikkiso Co., for example. They're a medical equipment maker in Tokyo and the brains behind the light in their Aeropure air purifier. They teamed up with the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Miyazaki to see how well these LEDs worked during the COVID-19 pandemic. The idea behind this deep UV-LED purifier is to help stop those nasty hospital-acquired infections. Apparently, this light's shorter wavelength compared to regular ultraviolet light is what makes it so good at sterilizing both water and air. Nikkiso started putting the deep UV-LEDs in their air purifiers back in 2021, and boom, they were manufacturing and selling them to hospitals that same year!
