- The Indian Water Softener Market report will provide a detailed analysis of the market's key players' strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities.
- The market's growth is being hampered by high costs and a lack of awareness.
Due to increased construction activities such as hotels, restaurants, and townships that use water softeners, the commercial end use sector captured a majority share of the market. Water softener demand is expected to rise in the coming years as the commercial sector expands.
The industrial sector received the second-largest share, followed by the residential sector, owing to increased use of water softeners to prevent equipment damage and growing public awareness of the harmful effects of hardwater, respectively.
In terms of region, the country's southern region leads the market due to the presence of major chemical, fertiliser, oil and gas, and paper industries.By 2050, the country intends to add 600GW to 1,200GW of new power generation capacity. Another important factor driving demand for water softeners is rising residential and commercial space demand, which is increasing at a rapid pace due to rising urbanisation and a growing population of 1.3 billion people.
CONCLUSION
Water softeners are primary filtration units that convert hard water to soft water. Water softeners use chemical and physical methods to remove calcium and magnesium from water in a controlled manner, thereby reducing the negative effects of hard water in the end-use application.
The major factors driving the market's growth are rising awareness of the negative effects of hard water and technological advancement. High costs and a lack of awareness in rural areas about the effect of hard water on appliances and the benefits of water softening systems are posing challenges to the market's growth during the forecast period 2020-2025. Furthermore, rising disposable income and R&D advancements boost overall market demand for water softeners during the forecast period 2020-2025.
