Water Enhancer Market

Global water enhancer market is likely to exhibit a promising growth curve as far as the short-term outlook is considered. The report will uncover the insights into how the market growth will unfold in the next few years.

Nutritional Advantages Without the Need for Carbonation Fuel Sales in Global Water Enhancer Market

A water enhancer is intended to be added to change the physical properties of plain packaged or tap water. It typically contains citric acid, caffeine, vitamins, minerals, flavourings, electrolytes, artificial sweeteners, and colours to give water extra nutritional benefits without carbonation. By replacing fizzy drinks with water, a water enhancer might help people who do not consume sufficient water stay more hydrated and consume less calories. It also makes the water more palatable. While this drives the water enhancer market forward, frequent new innovations debuting on the market further add to the growth potential. Upspring, LLC, a reputable Texas-based producer of clinically supported health and wellness products, released its most recent line of US Water Enhancers in August 2021. These were made specifically with breastfeeding or pregnant mothers in mind. The brand-new water enhancer mixes four electrolytes into a cool drink to flavor plain water and promotes hydration during pregnancy. Citrus Ginger, and Lemon Lime are the two plant-based flavors offered for these.

Carbon dioxide is dissolved in water at high pressures and low temperatures in the carbonation process. It is acceptable in many cocktails throughout the world. However, certain negative health impacts come at the expense of this taste, which has been a major source of worry for many health-conscious customers. Beverage Marketing Corporation, a New York-based company, reports that the US water enhancer market growth fell by 1.6% between 2012 and 2017. Liquid concentrates offer a tempting add-on option for tap water consumers and buyers of bottled water to counteract declining beverage sales as the demand for carbonated beverages continues to fall. 2020 saw the addition of a new business area for Zhou Nutrition that included water enhancers in six new flavors for various wellness needs, including stress management, hair and skin health, and others. The market limitations throughout the projected period include adherence to strict laws and disparate standards worldwide, rising competition, inflation estimated to continue above the top range during the changing raw material costs and short-term in significant nations.

Water Enhancer Market: COVID-19 Impact

Due to the disruption of the supply chain, import and export, and the closing of retail establishments worldwide, the COVID-19 pandemic had a detrimental effect on the industry's growth. The industry expansion during the pandemic was hampered by the closure of supermarkets, hypermarkets, and convenience stores since it reduced sales through these distribution channels. According to data from the International Center, the import of flavored water declined to around 2.7% in 2020, then surged to about 13% in 2021. Rising public awareness of leading a healthy lifestyle also helps the industry expand. Major nations like the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada contribute substantially to industry growth.

Packaging Technology Advances Drive Forward the Water Enhancer Market Growth

The trend toward wholesome drinking, and proper hydration primarily drive the water enhancer market. The demand for nutrient-rich drinks with health benefits is rising as awareness of the harmful effects of carbonated beverages, and sugary soft drinks on human health grows. Water enhancers are easy to transport and provide on-the-go, affordable nutrition. The sector is also progressing because of the rising demand for customized drinks. The market is being stimulated by innovation by the rising demand for natural, plant-based solutions.

New Product Launches Continue to Strengthen Water Enhancer Market Growth

Businesses are consistently adding new products to their portfolios and have a strong marketing plan to create demand for their goods. New businesses are concentrating on supply chain operations to compete with the major players. The water enhancer market is likely to increase significantly over the anticipated period, with established players and fresh challengers effectively vying for dominance. Enhancers are fluid water additives that can be added to regular water to add nutrition, flavor, and liveliness. This is more practical and affordable than buying flavored or functional water. Manufacturers of flavored water and energy drinks, like H2ROSE, which uses rose water to create a pleasant and scented drink, are introducing many new flavors. There are nine different flavors of the Celsius sports drink from Celsius Groupe, including mango, raspberry, blueberry, lemon, orange, and watermelon. In February 2018, PepsiCo introduced Drinkfinity, a specialized pod-based, flavored water enhancer, in the US.

Harmful Potential Effects of Chemicals to Restrain Water Enhancer Market

Water Enhancer uses many chemicals and is thus very harmful to health. They contain artificial colors, and flavors, which have been associated with an increase in several potential health hazards, from allergic reactions to specific types of cancer. Sucralose and propylene glycol are other chemicals that garner health professionals' greatest attention. Sucralose is a synthetic, calorie-free sweetener between 400 and 700 times sweeter than ordinary table sugar. Sucralose has been shown to have a deleterious impact on gut health and to increase blood sugar and insulin levels. Artificial sweeteners have been scrutinized for a while, and it has been established that they are more harmful than beneficial. A liquid material called propylene glycol is used to absorb water. Because it is frequently used in antifreeze, this chemical has raised some concerns.

Liquid Water Enhancer Dominates Water Enhancer Market on the Back of Easy Usage, and Wider Availability

One of the key reasons this sector makes up the largest percentage is the general acceptance and accessibility of products in the liquid form. Most major suppliers, including the Kraft Heinz Company, Jel Sert, and others, offer liquid forms of their products. For instance, one of the well-known brands, Mio from the Kraft Heinz Company, also provides water enhancers in liquid form. As a result, the main corporations' strong emphasis on the liquid form also contributed to the segment's dominant position. The powder category is anticipated to grow fastest throughout the forecast period. One of the key factors driving segment growth is the growing focus of new competitors on powdered-form water enhancers, such as Nunn and Dyla LLC. One main element driving the powder-based water enhancer market is its long shelf life. Additionally, the growing popularity of nutritional powder products among gym-goers fuels demand powdered water enhancers, fueling the segment's expansion.

Offline Stores Largest Revenue Contributor in Water Enhancer Market, Wide Variety and Easy Access Play a Vital Role

According to distribution channels, the offline sector had the highest share. Products are sold through convenience stores, specialty stores, hypermarkets, and supermarkets in the offline distribution channel. Customers prefer to purchase their groceries from physical stores since they are more accessible, and simpler to find. Overall product sales have increased due to the significant growth in the number of supermarkets and hypermarkets in growing economies like China, India, and others. Additionally, offline retailers give customers access to various preferences and product information by scanning before purchasing, which helps the segment grow.

Europe Dominates Global Water Enhancer Market on Account of Higher Per Capita Income, and Healthier Eating Habits

Geographically speaking, Europe made up the largest portion of sales. Increased product consumption in important nations including the U.K., Germany, France, Belgium, and others is the primary growth driver for market. Additionally, growing preference for drinking water that tastes wonderful and has health advantages has contributed to the notable increase in demand for energy water enhancers in industrialised nations. The biggest revenue share was also influenced by the region's massive import of flavoured water. Germany, the U.K., and Belgium are Europe's top importers, per data published by the International Trade Center in 2021. During the projected period, the Asia Pacific is anticipated to become the region with the quickest growth. The region's rise is primarily attributable to countries like China, and India being more conscious of the importance of living a healthy lifestyle that includes drinking plenty of water and other nutrients. This discrepancy results from people in Japan, and China being more and more dependent on food supplements. Another important factor that sustains East Asia's dominance in the water enhancer market of Asia Pacific is increased health knowledge.
