AI and smart automation are moving from pilots to day to day cleaning decisions, and the scale of that shift is showing up in budgets and equipment purchases. For example, the cleaning and maintenance analytics software market is forecast to hit $2.2 billion in 2024, while Europe is already driving $8.6 billion in cleaning services value and facilities managers are asking for real time visibility into cleaning KPIs. The surprising part is how fast the “robot and software” story is colliding with the larger, still growing cleaning services categories like floor care, disinfecting, and window cleaning.
Key Takeaways
- $5.4 billion global value for the commercial cleaning services market in 2023, with continued growth to 2030
- $10.2 billion global value for the janitorial services market in 2023, projected to grow through 2030
- $8.3 billion global value for the carpet cleaning services market in 2023, projected growth through 2030
- $42.5 billion estimated US revenue for janitorial services in 2023 (industry estimate)
- $19.8 billion estimated US revenue for carpet & upholstery cleaning in 2023 (industry estimate)
- $10.9 billion estimated US revenue for power washing services in 2023 (industry estimate)
AI is accelerating rapid growth in the cleaning industry, with global software, robots, and disinfecting markets surging through 2030.
