Backflow Preventers: Increasing Concerns Regarding Drinking Water Quality

A backflow prevention device helps avoid undesirable reversal of the flow of a source of contamination into a potable water system. Backflow preventers find important application in protecting a drinking water network against any risk of pollution due to possible backflow of contaminated fluid. Increasing concerns regarding the health and liability risks related to contaminated drinking water is estimated to be the key factor driving the growth of the global backflow preventers market during the forecast period.

Market Set to Grow 1.4x between 2019 and 2029

The backflow preventers market is likely to witness steady growth over the course of the forecast period. Gain will be driven by the demand for backflow preventers from the residential, construction, and industrial sectors. Further, several plumbing codes in North America and Europe are also driving their adoption.

Emerging Regions Promise New Growth Opportunities

North America and Europe are expected to contribute high revenue shares in the global backflow preventers market in 2019. However, healthy growth is expected in developing countries, especially China, India, and Brazil, as governments and private players focus on improving the quality of drinking water in these countries.

Among the emerging countries, India is likely to present sustained opportunities of growth for stakeholders in the backflow preventers market. Due to India’s strong growth, South Asia is likely to emerge as a lucrative backflow preventers market during the forecast period.

The Broader Perspective
