Building Maintenance Unit (BMU) Market Size

Building Maintenance Unit Market Size

Building Maintenance Unit Market was valued at USD 4.1 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of over 8% between 2024 and 2032, due to the rising construction of high-rise buildings & skyscrapers. Taller buildings have a bigger external surface area than low-rise structures. This results in a high requirement for routine cleaning & maintenance such as window washing, façade inspection, and repairs. In such cases, traditional solutions such as scaffolding turn out to be impractical & expensive in high-rise structures, making BMUs the preferrable choice.

BMUs can be configured to handle these complexities, providing proper & effective maintenance. For instance, in December 2023, the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) released a report indicating a 12% rise in the completion of skyscrapers worldwide in 2023 compared to the previous year. Additionally, the report underscored a notable increase in the construction of supertall skyscrapers globally. This surge in skyscraper construction highlights the growing demand for BMUs, thus propelling market expansion.
 

Focus on sustainable building management is a significant growth factor for the BMU market. Modern BMUs have technologies, such as microfiber cloths and water filtration systems, which enable effective cleaning with low water consumption. This factor is in line with the industry’s aim of constructing sustainable buildings to lessen the environmental imprint. Some modern BMUs may even harvest rainwater for cleaning, decreasing dependency on municipal water supply while also limiting the environmental effect. Moreover, manufacturers of BMUs are increasingly concentrating on creating & producing models with recyclable or reusable parts. This is consistent with the concepts of a circular economy, which emphasizes waste reduction and resource recovery in the building & maintenance industries.
