Air Duster Market Size, Share, and Industry Analysis, By Type (Canned Air Duster and Electric Air Duster), By End User (Electronic, Automotive, and Others), and Regional Forecast, 2025-2032

Air Duster is a cleaning device primarily used to clean items that are sensitive to moisture, such as printers, computers, and keyboard sets. The rapidly increasing consumer consciousness regarding health and hygiene boosts global air duster market growth.

Air dusters are noncorrosive, nonabrasive, and moisture-free, which makes them suitable for cleaning vehicles and electronic equipment used commonly at home and the office. Moreover, they are designed to remove even tiny dust particles from hard-to-reach spaces of the products to be cleaned, thus ensuring complete cleanliness. Air dusters also enhance the lifespan of electronic equipment by cleaning them and preventing malfunctions. In this regard, the rising awareness regarding several benefits of air dusters drives market growth.

The increasing consumer interest in technologically advanced electronic equipment is expected to trigger the adoption of air dusters in the near term. However, inhalation of canned air duster fumes leads to dangerous side effects, such as breathing and liver problems. As a result, the safety issues related to the product significantly hamper product demand. In addition, air duster manufacturing and sales were considerably affected due to the interim closure of production plants and retail stores owing to the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020. However, the pandemic also increased consumer awareness regarding hygiene and health, which will likely favor air duster demand.

Analysis by Type

Based on type, the global air duster market is divided into canned air duster and electric air duster. The canned air duster segment will lead the global market throughout the forecast timeframe as these air dusters use compressed air and are more efficient in cleaning surfaces, including areas that are not easily accessible. Furthermore, electric air dusters use small electric motors to push air and remove dust particles. The product provides continuous and consistent airflow but is typically not as powerful as canned air dusters, which hampers its demand.

Analysis by Application

Based on application, the global market is segmented into electronic, automotive, and others. The electronic segment dominated the market in 2023, favored by the versatility of air dusters that can efficiently remove dust from numerous small and large electronic devices such as fans, computers, printers, vents, keyboards, flash drives, cameras, and mobile phones. The increasing use of these electronic devices across homes and offices fuels product adoption and supports segmental growth. In addition, increasing product use to eliminate dust and debris from the components and parts of vehicles will contribute to the automotive segment expansion in the near term.
