Spring Water Market Trends

• Increasing concerns regarding various health problems is driving the market growth

The need for clean and hygienic packaged solutions is rising as awareness of numerous health issues, such as gastrointestinal disorders brought on by drinking contaminated water, grows. Drinking water shortages in some areas further raise the need for clean drinking water, which drives up product sales and boosts market expansion.

Because customers place more value on health and wellness, nutrient-fortified water is becoming more popular. The demand among business travellers, professionals who are in the workforce, and for domestic consumption has been rising. Products with labels like "alkaline," "electrolyte-rich," "fortified," "caffeinated water," and "fortified with additional hydrogen or oxygen" have been more and more well-liked over the past few years.

Customers are prioritizing their health and wellness more and more, which is driving up demand for bottled purified and ultra-purified solutions. These bottles are a healthier alternative to high-calorie, sugary, carbonated beverages like sports drinks and juices, thus consumers opted for them when they were on the go. Beverage Industry reported in September 2021 that bottled water sales increased by 4.7% in 2020. Due to greater availability to information on healthy beverages and consumer dissatisfaction with high-quality alcoholic beverages, consumers are increasingly choosing premium or ultra-purified bottled options.

A major factor in the product's increasing penetration has been packaging. In June 2020, ZenWTR unveiled new bottle wrapping for bottles composed of plastic recovered from the ocean. The product comes in 1 litre, 23.7 ounce, and 16.9 ounce packets. The 9.5 pH level of the pure crisp H2O is achieved through vapour distillation, ionisation, and offering in infinitely recyclable bottles. The business has been engaged in supply chain development, research, and security. The business has taken a significant step towards developing a sustainable product with this. In order to make each 1-liter package, the corporation would employ up to five ocean-bound plastic bottles, saving nearly 70 million in total. Thus, driving the Spring Water market revenue.

For instance, Aquafina provides filtered, sodium-free, purified drinking options. Dasani similarly provides purified options for clean, safe drinking that have minerals added. The market is being driven by customers' increased desire for the sparkling category as a healthier substitute for sugary drinks like cola to reduce sugar content levels.
