Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The technological innovation leading to product premiumization is notably driving the household water softener system market growth, although factors such as high price sensitivity of consumers may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the household water softener system industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Household Water Softener System Market Driver
The technological innovation leading to product premiumization is notably driving the household water softener system market growth. The incorporation of new and emerging technologies in the manufacture of water softener systems is one of the root causes for the premiumization of products. Water softeners with Wi-Fi technology and several other features such as alerts, customized alerts, and automatic adjustment for water usage patterns have been introduced. These products are also coupled with an extended service warranty, which adds up to raising the price of water softeners. Thus, the incorporation of smart and augmented features in these devices offers vendors the opportunity of raising the selling price of their products, thereby leading to premiumization. Therefore, it is a price driver for the market.
Key Household Water Softener System Market Trend
Collaboration between private players and governments is a major driver of the household water softener system market growth. According to the United Nations, by 2050, at least one in four persons is expected to be living in a country affected by a chronic shortage of fresh water. The governments in many countries face financial constraints and are not capable of meeting the growing residential demand for safe water. Many non-profit organizations such as the National Science Foundation (NSF) have been working with leading manufacturers in the market, such as 3M, to supply residential water treatment equipment at reasonable prices. In addition, many contributing companies in the market are also trying to use price discrimination strategies to boost sales volumes in developing countries. To offset reduced profits, equipment manufacturers try to sell their products at higher prices in affluent countries.
Key Household Water Softener System Market Challenge
The high price sensitivity of consumers is a major hindrance to household water softener system market growth. Household water softeners are valued at an average price range of around $600 to $650. In developed countries, where the purchasing power of end-consumers and the concentration of high net-worth individuals (HNWI) is high, price is not a purchase barrier. Moreover, in developed economies, the awareness of the features and benefits of water softener systems is high. Therefore, in developed economies, consumers aspire to purchase water softener systems. On the other hand, in the developing countries of APAC and MEA, price sensitivity is the major barrier limiting the expansion of the water softener system market. Consumers do not have good visibility of the product due to less concentration of market players. Apart from these, relatively low purchasing power, low consumer awareness of the product, and lack of buying aspiration for water treatment equipment are certain causes that add up to price sensitivity. The low aspiration among consumers because of high price sensitivity to buy water softener systems in developing countries such as India and China is proving to be a hurdle for the development of the global household water softener system market. Hence, it is a price challenge for the market.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
In 2020, COVID-19 spread widely across North America, especially in the US. As of August 25, 2021, more than 37 million COVID-19 cases were reported in the US, and the number of associated deaths crossed 600,000. The rising number of deaths associated with COVID-19 led to lockdowns in countries across the region, primarily in 2020. As a result, several non-essential product manufacturing units were closed. This had an adverse impact on the growth of the household water softener system market in North America in 2020. However, the region is witnessing a decline in the number of COVID-19 cases with the availability and administration of vaccines. As a result, there has been a rise in residential construction in the region. This will positively affect the household water softener system market in North America during the forecast period.
