Water Softening System Market By Type (Salt-based, Salt Free), By Application (Residential, Industrial, Commercial), By Design (Mono Cylinder, Twin Cylinder, Multi Cylinder) - Growth, Future Prospects, And Competitive Analysis, 2019 – 2027

Increasing awareness of the water softening process is likely to fuel the growth of the water softening system market.

Globally, the water softening system market is expected to grow with a CAGR of more than 7.5% during the forecast period from 2019 to 2027, starting from US$ 2.52 Bn in 2018. Globally, the water consumption rate has increased drastically as the population has grown across the globe. It is essential to provide pure and clean water to the people in order to maintain good health and avoid the spread of any infections or diseases. This primarily drives the demand for water softening systems, as these systems reduce the levels of harmful minerals in the water and supply pure water that can be consumed without any harm.

Furthermore, along with the consumption of water in the residential sector, the increasing number of industrial and commercial activities and related water utilization is also increasing the adoption of water-softening systems. Rapid developments in industries such as pharmaceutical and healthcare, food and beverages, semiconductors, and so on have created the demand for ultra-pure water, which is expected to fuel the growth of the water-softening system market over the forecast period.

Moreover, innovations in water treatment techniques and the emergence of automation in the water treatment and softening processes are also propelling the growth of this market. However, the presence of substitute water treatment techniques and a lack of awareness in developing and underdeveloped countries is likely to hamper market growth during the forecast period.

Market Synopsis

Salt-free water softening systems are expected to witness significant growth in the coming years.

Based on type, the water softening systems market is segmented into salt-free and salt-based systems. The salt-free water softening systems are largely adopted as they are less expensive and more effective when it comes to purifying and supplying quality water. These systems do not use any chemicals or hard agents to soften the water and are easy to install and maintain in the long run. This is increasing the demand for salt-free systems and thus fueling the growth of this market.

Based on application, water softener systems are largely being used in the residential sector. As these systems reduce the corrosion of pipes and there is a higher requirement for pure water in homes compared to industries, this end-use segment is experiencing rapid growth.

North America to dominate the water softening system market.

In the global water softening system market, North America held the largest market share in 2018. This is primarily based on the rapid developments of the industrial sector, which enhanced the demand for water in this regional segment.

Moreover, companies based in the US and Canada are developing new technologies to improve the existing water treatment techniques. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to exhibit rapid growth during the forecast period, as the demand for pure water is high in this region. Increasing awareness about water processing and the growing need to provide clean water is fueling the growth of this regional segment. Also, rapid industrialization and growth in the residential sector are driving the growth of the water softening system market in this region.

Some of the prominent players operating in the water softening system market include Culligan International Company, EcoWater Systems LLC, Kinetico Incorporated, Envicare Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Hydroflux Marketing Pte. Ltd., Wychwood Water Systems Ltd., Pelican Water Systems, Harvey Water Softeners Ltd., Marlo Incorporated, and BWT AG, among others.
