You know, the market for glass bottled drinking water is expected to keep growing steadily between 2023 and 2027. And a lot of that has to do with folks wanting cleaner, safer water, plus more and more people are choosing reusable glass over plastic to help out the environment. According to the International Bottled Water Association (IBWA), bottled water is still a super profitable part of the beverage world. What's driving this? Well, worries about getting sick from bad water, like those nasty gastrointestinal diseases, are a big factor. Plus, people are really into water that's got extra nutrients in it. All this is boosting sales of glass bottled water. And let's not forget that travelers and working people love the convenience of bottled water. The fact that companies are touting the benefits of natural spring water, mineral water, and other bottled options really helps too. Finally, with everyone moving to cities, there's a bigger need for easy-to-carry drinking water, which is why purified bottled water is becoming so popular. It's a win-win!
Growing Consumer Preference for Mineral Water to Drive Market Growth
Functional water, recognized as non-alcoholic beverage is a healthy drink that provides instant energy and numerous health benefits such as weight management, appetite control, blood regulation, etc. Functional beverages are being popularly adapted as alternatives to aerated and sugary artificial drinks. Since rapid urbanization and busy lifestyle have led to a rise in health concerns, consumers are attracted towards functional beverages. Increasing consumption of functional beverages by people going to gym or are involved in high-intensity sports activities are expected to fuel the growth of the glass bottled drinking water market.
Increasing Awareness Towards Plastic Pollution to Boost Glass Bottled Drinking Water Adoption
It's kind of crazy, but only about one in six plastic bottles actually get recycled. And get thisa single plastic water bottle can hang around for up to 1,000 years! All that time, it's leaking nasty stuff into the soil and water. On the other hand, glass bottles keep your water tasting great without the risk of chemicals getting in there. Plus, they break down naturally! You can recycle glass over and over, which is a big help in cutting down on litter. Oh, and did you know those plastic bottle companies burn through millions of barrels of oil every year? Talk about using up resources! Luckily, more and more people are realizing how much better glass water bottles are. And since they are easy to carry and use, they're becoming super popular, especially in cities. Plus, governments are cracking down on plastic bottles, which is another reason more people are switching to glass.
