Increase in Demand for Clean Drinking Water

Rising levels of groundwater contamination and increasing concerns regarding tap water quality have resulted in a significant consumer shift in the adoption of household water dispensers. According to a study conducted by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in 2019, more than 22% of groundwater contains at least one contaminant at a concentration of potential concern for human health. In addition, according to the World Health Organization, globally, at least 2 billion people use drinking water sources contaminated with feces, resulting in microbial contamination of drinking water. Thus, the increasing groundwater contamination is expected to boost the demand for clean water, propelling the growth of the household water dispensers market. Household water dispensers offer safe drinking water by removing hazardous bacteria, viruses, and other impurities. In addition, concerns related to the chlorine content in drinking water and related health issues such as asthma, bladder cancer, and heart diseases in developed countries have surged the demand for household water dispensers.

Moreover, the increasing groundwater contamination has resulted in a rise in waterborne illnesses, such as cholera, E. coli, and gastrointestinal illnesses, augmenting the demand for household water dispensers. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1 out of 44 people gets sick from waterborne illnesses in the US every year. However, the adoption of water dispensers removes contaminants such as cryptosporidium and giardia, which helps in reducing the possibility of gastrointestinal illnesses by 33%. In addition, household water dispensers help remove minerals and chlorine and its byproducts, which lowers the threat of rectal and bladder cancer. Additionally, clean drinking water helps improve the digestive system, boost the overall immune system, and improve skin health. Thus, the increasing demand for clean drinking water owing to the rise in awareness about its health benefits is propelling the household water dispensers market growth.

A few players operating in the global household water dispensers market are SodaStream, Inc.; Avalon Water, Co. Inc.; Blue Star Ltd.; International Business Development, Inc.; Cosmetal Srl; Culligan International, Co.; Canaletas SA; Waterlogic Holdings Ltd.; Primo Water Corp.; Clover Co.
