- Growing popularity of waterless urinals
- Growing inclination towards water conservation in buildings
Technavio has released a new market research report on the global urinal market, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6% between 2016 and 2020. Urinals represent elegance, class, and detailing in design of the bathroom cabinets, and are an important component of the sanitary ware industry. Currently, the urinal market is getting a facelift, where manufacturers are making more efforts towards the design of the urinal. APAC lead the global urinal market, owing to the increased investments in the public infrastructure projects in the region.
The new industry research report from Technavio discusses in detail the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.
“Waterless urinals are the latest technological improvement in the sanitary ware market. A waterless urinal is designed in such a way that it saves 20,000 to 45,000 gallons of water a year. Recently, Kohler developed a new urinal model that uses the least quantity of water in flushing. Also, the manufacturers are focusing on the interior designing of the urinals to enhance the aesthetical appeal of the bathroom cabinets,” says Soumya Mutsuddi, Lead Analyst, Heavy Industry, Technavio Research.
There is increasing global awareness about the benefits of constructing sustainable buildings to reduce carbon footprint and conserve water and energy. As a result, washrooms have become one of the most important focus areas during construction as they are potential factors to be considered for water conservation. This is expected to spur demand for various types of urinals, which possess water conservation functionalities.
The major players in the global urinal market include Duravit, Jaquar, Kohler, and TOTO. This market is expected to grow due to increased investments in the development of infrastructure, particularly in the APAC construction market. Vendors are investing in designing, planning, developing, branding, and expanding their networks. For example, Cera Sanitaryware, an India-based sanitary ware manufacturer launched a range of premium products of Italy-based global sanitaryware brand ISVEA, with which it has formed a partnership.
