Apart from increasing awareness levels for greater intake of water among prosperous parts of the world, the bottled water market also stands to gain impetus from growing popularity of carbonated water. Companies operating in the bottled water market are coming up with ecofriendly packaging materials as well as providing for adequate recycling. Mushrooming of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) is also stoking the demand for large-sized bottled water. On the other hand, environmental impact of plastic bottles and stringent government regulations are a few restraints obstructing the bottled water market from attaining a stronger growth rate.
Still Water Bottles to Remain Key Product Segment
On the basis of product type, the bottled water market has been segmented into still water, carbonated water, functional water, and flavored water. As of 2017, the still bottle water segment provided for a demand of 273.3 bn. liters in terms of volume, which represented a value of US$156.0 bn. Even throughout the aforementioned forecast period, this segment is expected to hold its prominence, providing for more than 77% of the overall demand in the global bottled water market.

PET Bottles Dominates Demand in terms of Packaging
Based on packaging, the market for bottled water has been bifurcated into polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, glass bottles, and others. Owing to consumer preference for purest form of water and the ease of handling, transportation, and storage – the demand for PET bottles is the strongest.

The analyst of the report has notified that there will be a demand for 409.7 bn. liters of water from this segment by the end of the forecast period.

While the others distribution channels are providing for the most prominent chunk of demand, grocery stores and supermarkets are other two key categories that stay ahead in the near future.
Nestle Waters, PepsiCo Inc, Groupe Danone, The Coca Cola Company, and Mountain Valley Spring Company LLC are a few prominent companies currently ahead of the curve in the global bottled water market.
