Growing Health Consciousness among Consumers to Drive Electrolyte Solution Market Growth
Electrolytes are the essential constituents of body fluids without which the numerous cells in the body cannot function optimally. Body cells perform their functions by sending signals through a coordinated movement of electrolytes in and out of the cells. The movement of electrolytes ensures that there is a maintenance of balance within normal ranges of concentration. Electrolytes serve to balance fluids in the body, maintains proper pH of the blood, and carry electrical signals from nerves to muscles. Electrolyte depletion or low electrolytes is treated by replacing the lost electrolytes through increased intake of dietary sources, oral medications/supplements, or drips and injections. Rising consumer health consciousness is expected to drive the growth of global electrolyte solution market. Sportspersons are especially projected to register higher demand as they tend to be more aware about the fact that the drinking water alone cannot suffice all the mineral requirements of the body.
An Increasing Number of Cases of Diarrhoea, and Other Food-borne Diseases Uphold Electrolyte Solution Market
The increasing need to control dehydration amid the surging instances of diarrhoea is a major driving factor for electrolyte solution market. During diarrhoea, water, and electrolytes (sodium, chloride, potassium, and bicarbonate) are lost in a variety of ways such as vomit, liquid stools, urine, sweat, and respiration. As a result, there is an obvious need to treat the dehydration that occurs because of diarrhoea. Each year, around 4 billion instances of diarrhoea are reported worldwide, with diarrhoea killing roughly 525 000 children under the age of five, annually. Increasing prevalence of diarrhoea worldwide will thus sustain the revenue generation in electrolyte solution market.
Ascending cases of food-borne diseases is another strong factor accounting for demand surge in electrolyte solution market. The dietary changes, increased use of commercial food services, new means of producing and distributing food, new or re-emerging infectious foodborne agents, and an increase in the number of persons at high risk of serious or deadly foodborne infections are some major factors driving the food borne diseases. Every year, 7.69 per cent (600 million) of the world's population (7.8 billion) suffer from foodborne diseases, and foodborne illnesses account for 7.5 per cent (420,000 deaths) of all deaths (56 million). The growing number of food-borne diseases is rising the diarrhoea-related problems, thus driving the growth of the market.
PET Packaging Dominant
According to packaging, the PET bottles segment accounted for most of the global electrolyte drinks market share in the forecast period and is expected to continue to dominate the market during the projected period. PET bottles are the most often used packaging material by beverage industries worldwide. Since the advent of technological improvements in PET bottles, the PET bottle business has grown significantly. The introduction of new technologies is expected to boost the growth of PET bottles in the electrolyte drinks market over the forecast period. The growing desire for sustainable packaging solutions is expected to boost segment sales. Manufacturers are launching customised solutions based on end user requirements, which will fuel segment expansion.

Considering the volatility of business today, traditional approaches to strategizing a game plan can be unfruitful if not detrimental. True ambiguity is no way to determine a forecast. A myriad of predetermined factors must be accounted for such as the degree of risk involved, the magnitude of circumstances, as well as conditions or consequences that are not known or unpredictable. To circumvent binary views that cast uncertainty, the application of market research intelligence to strategically posture, move, and enable actionable outcomes is necessary.
