Plumbing fixtures are a replaceable device that can be connected with the plumbing system to drain and deliver water. Plumbing fixtures have evolved along with all the other areas of the plumbing industry. Fixtures have changed drastically in the last few decades in terms of colour, material and style.
There are various types of plumbing fixtures available in the market which include bathtubs, drinking fountains, channel drains, showers, urinals, etc. Various standards regarding the design & effective operation of plumbing fixtures are made by various governments. Both the component material as well as the design of plumbing fixtures (wash-basins, tubs, sinks, toilet pans, etc.) are subject to standards and certifications which are required to ensure safety and integrity.
Earlier, conventional plumbing fixtures were used as they used to be not only affordable but also easily available. However, nowadays, manufacturers are focussing on the development and utilization of electronic-based plumbing fixtures.
These days, most public places such as showrooms, malls and hotels, people generally have sensor-operated urinals with fewer moving parts -- this reduces wear and tear and also elongates the life of urinals. Manually-operated flush valves are becoming increasingly rare. Sensor-operated valves also reduce the consumption of water by the way of intelligent flushing schedules based on fuzzy logic.
Rising drought-like conditions in various countries of North America and in other regions and an aging sewer system and water distribution system is impelling the construction professionals to look for alternative ways of conserving water. An effective approach is to install plumbing fixtures that consume less water. Further, the demand for plumbing fixtures is being impelled by the strong growth in the construction industry. The residential application of plumbing fixtures is expected to foresee the most rapid growth.
This growth will be further enhanced by the increasing number of housing completions and new design trends that demand large and more number of bathrooms and kitchens. Commercially, the demand for plumbing fixtures is being supported by rising construction of bathroom-intensive structures such as offices, hospitals and hotels. The above-mentioned factors are expected to propel the demand for plumbing fixtures in near future and in turn, drive the growth of the global plumbing fixtures market.
