Thailand Water Purifier Market Overview
Thailand's population is becoming increasingly conscious of the benefits of good health, hygiene, and sanitation. The public's understanding of the importance of drinking water that is fresh, clean, and safe is growing rapidly; it is expected to increase the country's water purifier market. The government has taken many initiatives to address the issues which are causing the country's water quality to deteriorate. Furthermore, the COVID-19 outbreak has highlighted the importance of drinking water that is clean and free of toxins to avoid the spread of infection, which has increased the demand for water purifiers in Thailand.
The rise in the incidence of water-borne illnesses prompts consumers to focus on drinking clean water and taking preventive measures. With increasing industrialization and urbanization, water pollution has become a significant issue in Thailand, and this has led to a growing concern among the population about the safety of drinking water. This factor is expected to boost the market growth of the water purifier during the forecast period, as they are seen as an effective solution to ensure safe and clean drinking water in the country.
Another key driver of the water purifier market in Thailand is the government's initiatives to promote the use of water purifiers. The government has launched various campaigns and programs to raise awareness about the importance of water purification and encourage citizens to invest in water purifiers. The government has implemented regulations and guidelines to ensure that water purifiers meet certain standards and are safe for use.
The increasing demand for water purifiers in the residential sector is driving the growth of the market. As more and more households become aware of the importance of safe drinking water, they are investing in water purification systems to ensure that their families have access to clean and safe drinking water. In addition, the commercial sector, including offices, hotels, and hospitals, is investing in water purification systems to provide clean water to their employees and customers.
Thailand Water Purifier Market Drivers
The increasing awareness of the importance of clean and safe drinking water in the country is the primary factor driving the demand for water purifiers in the country. With rising concerns about water pollution and the increasing awareness of the health risks associated with contaminated water, more and more households are investing in water purifiers. In Thailand, over 43 million people drink contaminated water, which causes illnesses such as diarrhea, typhoid, and dysentery. This water has been primarily affected by pollutants thrown into rivers and streams. When individuals consume water from these rivers and streams, harmful pollutants affect their health. As a result, consumer preferences are shifting towards safe, clean drinking water, necessitating the installation of water purifiers systems in the country, which would significantly boost the market growth.
However, growing urbanization is caused by a rise in water usage, which would lead to a surge in demand for water purifiers in the country. For instance, in 2021, Thailand's urban population accounted for 52.2% of the country's population, expanding at a 1.78% annual rate. The main drivers of expanding urbanization in Thailand include urban planning policies, industrialization, and economic advancements. The urban population has the purchasing power as well as the necessary resources to install a water purification system.
Thailand Water Purifier Market Trends
The water purifier market in Thailand is experiencing several trends that are shaping its future growth. One of the most significant trends is the increasing popularity of advanced filtration technologies, such as reverse osmosis and UV sterilization. These technologies offer a higher level of water purification, removing impurities and bacteria that other filtration methods may miss. Apart from these filtration technologies, nanofiltration membranes are gaining popularity as a low-cost and high-efficiency method of water purification. Nanofiltration membranes feature smaller pore diameters (1-10 nanometers) than UF and microfiltration membranes, which improves water purifier efficacy by removing tiny harmful substances. For instance, in 2021, Coway (Thailand), has introduced a new water purifier named the "NEO PLUS CHP-264L," which was designed specifically for the Thai market. The package includes a low water level indicator, a child safety lock, and replaceable faucets.
Another trend is the growing preference for countertops and portable water purifiers. These types of purifiers are more compact and convenient, which is significant for smaller households that are constantly traveling. Countertop and portable water purifiers are more affordable than larger systems, making them an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers.
