Underwater Lighting Market Trends

ID: MRFR//6917-HCR | 111 Pages | Author: Ankit Gupta| November 2024

Underwater Lighting Market Overview


The Global Underwater Lighting Market was valued at USD 269.4 million in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 359.7 Million by the end of the forecast period with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.26%. Submersible lights used to illuminate places with limited visibility under the water are referred to as underwater lighting. These lights can be used for decorative purposes, such as lighting up water features such as ponds and pools. With this lighting, bumps on the pool walls and unintentional encounters with other swimmers can be avoided.  For smooth operation in ponds, lakes, oceans, and other underwater locations, underwater lighting systems typically include lights that are protected with durable materials. Because these lights are frequently submerged in salty water, manufacturers need to build corrosion-resistant cases. The direction of light changes in water due to the law of refraction, and it does not follow a straight route. As a result, light scatters and divers underwater do not have access to ambient light. As a result, for better underwater illumination, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have gradually supplanted traditional light sources in recent years. Oceanographers utilize underwater lights to determine the physical and biological features of the ocean.


COVID-19 Analysis


The global spread of the new coronavirus, which originated in China, has had a significant influence on the underwater lighting industry and Underwater Lighting Market Share. Governments have banned all types of recreational activities such as rafting, surfing, boating, fishing, and swimming, resulting in a decrease in the use of underwater lights. Furthermore, the Underwater Lighting Market Trend is being stifled by a drop in sales of energy-efficient LEDs during the Underwater Lighting Market Forecast. In the LED business, the majority of production takes place in China, which is both a raw materials hub and the source of the deadly virus.


Market Dynamics


Market Drivers


The Underwater Lighting Industry is predicted to rise due to the increased use of these lights for night fishing and their installation in commercial swimming pools. Furthermore, during the projected period, the increasing substitution of traditional lights with LEDs is expected to create potential prospects for the underwater lighting market and increase the Underwater Lighting Market Share. The global Underwater Lighting Market Growth is a result of rising demand for underwater lighting in swimming pools and a shift toward the use of energy-efficient LEDs. Additionally, one of the factors contributing to the overall Underwater Lighting Market Growth and increasing the Underwater Lighting Market Trends is the use of underwater lights for fishing.


Market Restraints


LEDs' high installation costs are projected to stifle worldwide market expansion, thus decreasing the Underwater Lighting Market Size. However, the market for underwater lighting is being held back by the high maintenance costs of energy-efficient LEDs.


Technology Analysis


In many applications, solid-state lighting is replacing incandescent, fluorescent, HMI, and HID lighting, and for good cause. LEDs are very efficient and adaptable lighting options. They are ideal for almost any lighting application, including subsea imaging. For varied aesthetic experiences, light in water exhibits behaviors outside of the range. These behaviors are the result of interactions between phenomena ranging from the atomic to the macroscopic life that abounds in the oceans. The inverse square law is no longer a good predictor of luminous intensity at a given distance from a source because light no longer travels straight lines from source to subject. Underwater lighting is used for swimming pool decorating and night fishing. It is also utilized for the installation of underwater lights for appealing water-featured landscaping.


Market Segment Overview


The Underwater Lighting Market Analysis has been bifurcated into various segments that will help the market to achieve the highest CAGR during the Underwater Lighting Market Research period and provide a better Underwater Lighting Market Outlook.

Regional Classification


The global underwater lighting market is expected to be dominated by North America, followed by Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Rest of the World. The use of underwater lighting in this location has been ascribed to the presence of underwater caverns and government attempts to assist underwater activity. Furthermore, the need for underwater lights in the region has increased as a result of the installation of private swimming pools in the hospitality sector. The expansion of the underwater lighting market in the Asia Pacific is predicted to be driven by an increase in the number of swimming pool construction projects due to the region's thriving tourism industry and the development of upscale residential complexes with modern amenities. Because of the high disposable income of customers, the demand for luxury cruises has increased, as has the demand for yachts, which has supported the expansion of the underwater lighting system market in the region. The Asia-Pacific area, on the other hand, is predicted to rise at the quickest rate due to the construction of amusement parks and fountains in China, South Korea, and Japan.
