STRONG GROWTH FORECAST FOR DISHWASHER MARKET

In terms of revenue, the global dishwasher market is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 7.2% through 2031, according to a new report by Transparency Market Research.

In its latest market report, TMR predicts the changing lifestyles due to rapid urbanisation and surge in the purchasing power of developing countries will have a noteworthy impact on the overall dishwasher market. Increasing working population, nuclear families, and shortage of household help during the COVID-19 pandemic are escalating the demand for dishwashers, and the market has been witnessing robust growth over the past few years.

Key manufacturers of dishwashers are continuing to focus on investment in research & development to introduce innovative products. Prominent players in the dishwasher market are engaging with clients by offering them customised solutions. Key players promoting several innovative designs with attractive features and energy saving technology are likely to drive the growth of the dishwasher market.

Rapid urbanisation and more awareness regarding kitchen hygiene & cleanliness are generating demand for reliable kitchen appliances. This is likely to promote the sales of dishwashers during the forecast period. In addition, easy availability of dishwashers, continuous growth in the number of residential units, and consumers opting for smart appliances is likely to generate demand for dishwashers.  

In terms of type, the dishwasher market has been segmented into free-standing, integrated, and semi-integrated. In recent years, the high adoption of free-standing dishwashers by consumers due to its feasibility, minimal space requirement, and ease of installation is likely to drive the market. Free-standing dishwashers majorly opted by end users with small homes or apartments is encouraging the growth of the dishwasher market.

However, increasing disposable income of consumers, and rising demand for kitchen appliances that match the interior of households and commercial spaces is likely to drive demand for built-in and semi-integrated dishwashers in the coming years. The market, on the basis of, distribution channel is likely to be driven by the online channel as most end users find it to be a convenient channel for shopping, as it provides huge discounts and several options while choosing a dishwasher during the purchasing process.

Rising preference for dishwashers in countries such as Japan, India, China, Australia, and in Southeast Asia, is encouraging the growth of the market. Apart from Asia Pacific, Europe also significantly contributes to the growth of the global dishwasher market. The UK, Germany, Italy, and France are considered the major markets for dishwashers in EuropeIn addition, increasing popularity of smart dishwashers, along with rising dependency of users on kitchen appliances for cleaning dishes is promoting the growth of the dishwasher market.



Miele tops in German consumers

Miele dishwashers reived other recognitions by German consumer watchdog Stiftung Warentest. Among 60 cm wide units, the fully integrated G 5260 SCVi Active Plus (top-edge controls) came out tops. In the integrated category, the same was achieved by the G 5210 SCi Active Plus, a technically identical model with front controls. Both were the only models to achieve an overall mark of 2.1. In total, the test covered 18 units, whereof 14 had a width of 60 cm and 4 were 45 cm slimline models.

Energy efficiency and advanced tecnologies characterized these Miele home appliances. In the EnergySave and Automatic programmes, Miele machines used the least amount of water and convinced with their cleaning performance. The test winners achieved top marks for ‘Handling’ (1.9) and ‘Sound emissions’ (1.1), making them the quietest of all contestants. «The fact that our dishwashers have once again been commended as best products in the test – said Lothar Wedeking, Miele Product Manager in Miele’s ‘Dishwashers’ business unit – underlines the convincing overall performance of our appliances».

According to the new energy labelling scheme, these machines achieve a C energy efficiency rating. Under the previous regime, this would have been an A+++ rating. Low water consumption starting at only 6 l in the ‘Automatic’ programme is the result of EcoPower technology with its special circulation pump, its optimised spray arms and its efficient filtration system.

Add to this patented AutoOpen drying, a feature only available from Miele. In this case, the door opens to the ajar position at the end of a programme to ensure good drying results, even on plastics, laminates and glass. The associated reduced main wash temperature accelerated drying and a shorter cycle time saves energy and time. These machines can also be connected to a hot water supply. This considerably reduces energy consumption once again and saves up to 50% on electricity. All Miele dishwashers are tested for 20 years of use
