The healthcare lighting market comprises of different market segment like by product, technology and application.
By product, the healthcare lighting market includes key segment of troffers, surface-mounted lights, and surgical lamps. Increase in the trend for LED-based troffer among the healthcare domain is promoting the growth of the market. Troffer lighting is indoor lighting fixtures that are mounted within a ceiling. They are employed to improve the patient experience and the ability of the team to give excellent care. Surgical lights also known as operating lights, are primarily used in operating room or ambulatory surgery centers to brighten the operation site on a patient for better visibility during a procedure. A surface mounted light rests on top of a flat surface, such as the flat part of a ceiling, and protrudes from it. Also they are best suited for healthcare facilities.
The healthcare lighting market is classified based on different technology such as fluorescent, LED, renewable energy. There is a huge demand for the LED segment as it is energy saving and are durable having more lifespan than traditional lights. Additionally, the government funding for better healthcare infrastructure by incorporating LED technology for energy saving and efficient lighting, is augmenting the growth of the market. Fluorescent light sources with low heat output can also be used in the healthcare industry Fluorescent lamps, HIDs and sodium lighting provide strong consistent illumination for a number of applications in healthcare facilities. Fluorescent lights have a variety of great advantages over traditional lighting technology. They are much more efficient and so they use less energy.
The healthcare lighting market finds its major application in patient room, surgical suits, nursing stations, outdoor, nursing facilities, senior living. The increasing adoption of advance technology and increasing demand for LED based fixtures in the patient room, surgical suits, nursing stations, outdoor, nursing facilities, senior living are propelling the growth of the market. As the quality of the visual environment has a positive effect on psychological health as well as patient recovery there is a huge surge in the demand for healthcare lighting market in the country. The environment in the healthcare facilities needs specific light as research states that it also improves the work quality of health workers.

August 2021: Acuity Brands, Inc. announced that its Care222 filtered far-UVC module with patent-pending dosing electronics is the first germicidal UV (GUV) source in the wavelength range 200-230 nm (i.e., “far-UVC”) to be UL LLC Certified to meet U.S. and Canadian standards for germicidal equipment for use in occupied spaces. When properly installed and administered, the module is in the Exempt risk group for photobiological hazards, as described in the IEC 62471:2006, Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems.
May 2020: Healthe company that manufactures UV Sanitization and Circadian Lighting products built a new technology-based UV-LED troffer light and launched to prevent the spread of COVID-19. This lighting will help remove all bacteria and viruses from the body and sanitize as per the source. It includes three types of tools such as cleanse downlight radiation, purify portal and air sanitizing tools with troffer service.
May 2020: German research institute the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut (FBH) and Technische Universität Berlin (TUB) have developed UV LEDs emitting UV light that is safe to the skin. It will be used for disingection in the hsopitals. According to the FBH, the light does not penetrate into the living layers of the skin because of the high degree of absorption. It is therefore expected that the skin will not be harmed at all or will be damaged so little that the natural repair mechanisms compensate for the effect.
