Grow Light Market

Global Grow Light Market: Snapshot

A grow light is an electric lamp that operates as an artificial light source used to stimulate plant growth. Grow lights emit electromagnetic radiation in the evident light spectrum to simulate the process of photosynthesis, which is vital for the plant growth. It is very useful in the places where the amount of natural light is insufficient to support the plant growth.

According to the report, the grow light market is expected to reach US$ 6,596.0 Mn by 2025 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 8.46% during the period from 2017 to 2025.

LED Lights to Witness Most Promising Demand Globally

The grow light market is segmented on the basis of technology and application. On the basis of technology, the grow light market is segmented into LED, fluorescent, high intensity discharge (HID), and others. Others include plasma and induction grow light. LED grow light is expected to grow at a significant growth rate during forecast period, owing to the many advantages including less energy consumption, increased lifetime, and many more. Furthermore, LED grow light precisely mimics the spectrum of light required for the plant growth. LED grow light provide a balanced and broad spectrum of light for the plant growth. Additionally, many LED grow lights have a built in switch to swap the vegetative and flowering growth cycles of the plant with ease.

On the basis of application, the grow light market is segmented into indoor farming, vertical farming, greenhouse, research, turf, and others. Others segment includes grow light used for the growth of landscape plant and plant in space. Indoor farming is expected to hold a higher market share, owing to the significantly booming indoor farming industry around the world. Indoor farming is used to fuel the local food supplies by growing vegetables under the atmosphere, which is completely controlled and healthy. Indoor farming uses an artificial or grow lighting to provide sufficient amount of light to the plants, which they would only get when grown outdoors.

Europe to Remain Key Consumer of Grow Lighting Systems

Europe is the major contributor to the global grow light market. The presence of major industry players, growing urban farming practices, and increasing adoption of the grow lighting for the growth of vegetables, fruits, flowers and many more is expected to drive the market in this region.
