CLEVELAND, March 26, 2021 / PRNewswire / – A new analysis by the Freedonia Group found that retail sales of water filtration systems rose 8.2% to nearly 8.2% $ 1.6 billion in 2020, due in part to the impact of home ordering during the COVID-19 pandemic:
- Many consumers spent more time at home and used their own tap water more often. They invested in the water quality.
- In addition, cuts in spending on restaurants, travel and entertainment – along with government stimulus programs – have given consumers money to invest in water treatment products and other home improvement activities.
POE systems made water purification system profits in 2020
Point of Use (POE) systems drove market gains in 2020 as these systems cost less on average – which makes them easily available to most consumers – and are easier to install and / or use, especially flow and faucet systems.
However, whole house systems also recorded strong growth in 2020. The housing market – including the completion of new apartments and the sale of existing houses – performed better than expected, which boosted the acceptance of these products. Whole house systems are often installed during or immediately after a house is built or sold.
The U.S. consumer water treatment market will grow 3.4% annually through 2024
The demand for water treatment systems and consumables for consumers is expected to increase $ 4.5 billion in 2024, supported by:
- Raising consumer awareness of potential drinking water pollution
- Expansion of the possibilities of available water treatment systems
- Growth in new residential construction and sales of existing houses as whole house systems are often installed during construction or after purchase
