Disinfection robots utilizing ultraviolet (UVC) and hydrogen peroxide technologies constitute the most prevalent and desired robotics solutions currently employed worldwide. There is a growing demand for such robots in the Kingdom, following the mandate for UVC and/or hydrogen peroxide machines within Saudi Arabia's hospital disinfection processes, as outlined in the Ministry of Health's Infection Control Audit (clause 17.9). This mandate is critically emphasized ("red") and requires at least 80% compliance.

UV Disinfection robots’ market is expected to grow from $127 million in 2019 to a staggering $5.57 billion by 2027, representing a 32.6% CAGR.

The adoption of disinfection robots can significantly expedite and broaden the scope of disinfection tasks. Existing disinfection and cleaning methods, as indicated by the American Association for the Healthcare Environment Services (AHE) guidelines, necessitate approximately 40 minutes to disinfect a standard 30m² hospital room. Notably, not all environments require such thorough disinfection, but it serves as a benchmark. However, a robotic spray disinfectant, operating for 4.5 hours on a single charge, can disinfect a considerably larger space – 14,000m³ – within the same timeframe.
