Reusable Water Bottle Market Outlook (2023-2033)
The global reusable water bottle market enjoys a valuation of US$ 9.2 billion at present and is forecasted to surge to an impressive revenue value of US$ 13.5 billion by 2033, expanding at 3.9% CAGR over the next ten years.
Plastic water bottles account for a massive share of the total plastic waste volume and this is a prime factor that is anticipated to drive the shipments of reusable water bottles across the world.
Efforts to reduce plastic waste, bans on single-use plastics, increasing awareness of climate change among the general population, and the implementation of stringent regulatory mandates to curb plastic pollution are other factors that are projected to drive the sales of refillable water bottles over the coming years.
- In December 2022, the Canadian government announced that the manufacture and sale of plastic checkout bags, stir sticks, most plastic straws (some exceptions), takeout containers, and cutlery is prohibited. This is part of Canada’s plan to gradually eliminate single-use plastics by 2030.
Growing demand for sustainable packaging and advancements in the eco-friendly packaging industry are also expected to be crucial to reusable water bottle demand in the future. Rising investments in the research and development of innovative and stylish water bottles by manufacturers are also expected to favour market growth in the long run.
However, more weight of refillable bottles as compared to single-use plastic bottles, the high costs of sustainable water bottles, and the reluctance of water bottle companies to spend extra on these refillable water bottles are prime factors that are expected to constrain market development potential throughout the forecast period.
Majority of reusable water bottle sales are expected to be from hypermarkets and supermarkets over the coming years and they held a share of around 35% in the global market landscape in 2022. However, sales via e-Commerce channels are anticipated to have a bright demand outlook and increase at a fast pace over the next ten years.
