The global Ultraviolet Light Source market size is predicted to grow from US$ 2328 million in 2025 to US$ 5468 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15.3% from 2025 to 2031.
Ultraviolet (UV) light is electromagnetic radiation of wavelengths of 10–400 nanometers, shorter than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays. UV radiation is present in sunlight, and constitutes about 10% of the total electromagnetic radiation output from the Sun. It is also produced by electric arcs, Cherenkov radiation, and specialized lights, such as mercury-vapor lamps, tanning lamps, and black lights.
In the printing, coating, electronics and other industries, ultraviolet light sources are used for processes such as ink curing, paint drying, and photolithography of electronic components. The curing of UV ink requires energy from ultraviolet light sources to promote rapid drying of inks, improve production efficiency and printing quality. Ultraviolet light has the function of sterilization and disinfection, and is widely used in the disinfection of operating rooms, wards, medical equipment, etc. in the medical field. In addition, ultraviolet light therapy is also an important means of treating certain skin diseases, such as psoriasis and vitiligo. Ultraviolet light sources can be used for sewage treatment, air purification, etc. Through ultraviolet irradiation, the structure of organic matter and microorganisms in water can be destroyed to achieve the purpose of purifying water quality; in terms of air purification, ultraviolet light can kill harmful microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses in the air and improve air quality. There are many ultraviolet light source companies in China, mainly concentrated in Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other places. Some companies have gradually occupied a certain share in the market through technological innovation and product upgrades. But in general, there is still a certain gap between domestic and international companies in terms of technical level and brand influence. Ultraviolet light sources will be combined with intelligent technology to achieve intelligent control and management. For example, through sensors and control systems, precise control of parameters such as the intensity and irradiation time of the ultraviolet light source can be achieved, thereby improving efficiency and safety.
Global key players of Ultraviolet Light Source include Seoul Viosys, Signify, Light Source and NKFG Corp, etc. Global top four manufacturers hold a share about 40%. South Korea is the largest producer of ltraviolet Light Source, followed by Europe.
