Water Testing and Analysis Market: Overview

Water Testing and Analysis are crucial to determine the quality of water that can be used for multiple purposes such as drinking, use in industries, and day-to-day life activities. As the population increases the demand for potable water will also increase and substantially bolster the need for Water Testing and Analysis services on a global scale and this is expected to majorly influence Water Testing and Analysis market potential through the forecast period.  

Water testing provides insights on qualities such as alkalinity, acidity, turbidity, water conductivity, and radioactivity which helps in deciding the use of water and avoids waste of water in multiple industries. Water analysis systems are deployed in multiple industries to check the quality of water to decide its appropriate use and application, these systems are highly popular in mining, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, aquaculture, etc.

However, the lack of efficient water infrastructure and high costs of Water Testing and Analysis equipment will act as a restraining factor for the Water Testing and Analysis market over the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in multiple restrictions across the globe which restricted multiple activities and Water Testing and Analysis market was also one of them. The Water Testing and Analysis market experienced a drop in growth curve as the restrictions made it impossible to implement new testing and analysis techniques and shuttering of multiple institutions also led to a negative growth curve in 2020.  

Closure of multiple industries due to lack of skilled workforce and shortage of raw materials also had a negative impact on the Water Testing and Analysis market as this decreased the deployment of Water Testing and Analysis systems in these industries and hence resulted in losses.

In the post-pandemic era as the world returns to normal and industrial activity springs back to normal, we are expected to see the Water Testing and Analysis market rise at a steady pace.

Water Testing and Analysis Market: Growth Drivers

Stringent Water Treatment Regulations to Boost Water Testing and Analysis Services Demand

Wastewater contains multiple harmful elements and toxic chemicals that are harmful to the environment and human health and has a major negative impact on the global population to avoid these complications governments across the world are implementing new regulations to ensure proper treatment of water before disposal or use. This will majorly increase the demand for Water Testing and Analysis solutions and services and hence drive the Water Testing and Analysis market growth through 2028.

Increasing demand for water in different application industries is expected to drive the global water testing and analysis market growth over the forecast period. Industries such as healthcare, food, and beverages, and pharmaceuticals require good quality water, which is anticipated to further drive the industry growth in the future years. It is mandatory for some industries to adhere to some strict rules and regulations to maintain water quality. Increase in the cases of water contamination and water poisoning that affect humans, animals, and the environment has made it mandatory for water testing and analysis. Rapid change in the technology that provides new and improved methods to study the parameter of water-quality is expected to further drive the industry growth. 

The growing awareness levels regarding measurement of water quality due to rising water pollution and increased government funding for monitoring and controlling pollution are the major driving factor for water testing and analysis market growth over the forecast period. However, technical limitations with the water monitoring products and high cost associated with environmental monitoring solutions may restrain industry growth in the future years. Moreover, increasing regulatory support for high standard maintenance is anticipated to further boost the water testing and analysis market. As per the Ministry of Water Resources India, the demand for water across industries in the country is expected to increase from 41.4 billion cubic meters in 2010 to 80 billion cubic meters by 2025, which includes industries such as energy.
