Water conservation is growing in importance as climate change intensifies water scarcity and expanded access to water in developing regions increases demand. Water efficient fixtures, appliances, and other technologies for commercial and industrial (C&I) buildings reduce the amount of water used for specific tasks or reduce water waste to ease demands on municipal water utilities and wastewater treatment facilities, reduce charges for water supply and wastewater treatment for building owners, increase a building's resilience to water scarcity, contribute to an organization's sustainability goals, and in some cases, mitigate the risk of water damage to a building.
Product standards, including regulations, product labels, and product certification programs, are increasing the adoption of water efficient building technologies, as are government and private sector sustainability goals and voluntary building certification programs. However, market growth is limited by factors such as the underpricing of water, the importance of water to human health and sanitation, unintended consequences of increased water efficiency, negative impressions of product performance, and long product replacement cycles.
This Guidehouse Insights report analyzes the global market for five water efficient C&I building technologies: faucets and taps, toilets and urinals, showerheads, leak detection systems, and irrigation controllers. The study analyzes market drivers and barriers, and issues recommendations to industry stakeholders for growing this market. Revenue forecasts through 2033 are segmented by technology, global region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East & Africa), and C&I building type (office, retail, education, healthcare, hotels and restaurants, institutional/assembly, warehouse, transport, industrial).
