Hydration Containers Help in Reducing Carbon Footprint

The first synthetic plastic — Bakelite — was manufactured in 1907, and marked the beginning of the global plastics industry. Since then, this industry has evolved significantly and has undergone various transformations. Gradually, the usage of synthetic plastic has increased for making water bottles and other beverage containers/bottles. Eventually, the quantity of production and the use of plastic bottles increased tremendously, adversely affecting the environment.

However, to reduce the environmental effects of plastic bottles, the demand for reusable bottles has increased significantly across the globe. Reusable bottles can used around 80 times, thus, helps in reducing the carbon footprint of plastic. Moreover, increasing pressure on landfilling and recycling issues due to single-use bottles has further fueled the demand for reusable bottles that are made of polymer, metal, glass, and silicon. Manufacturers are also innovating in terms of product design and features such as vacuum insulation, embedded mist sprayers, and infusers. These latest innovations are expected to increase the overall revenue generated by the hydration containers market in 2019 to ~ US$ 9.7 Bn, and to US$ 15.6 Bn by the end of 2027.

Winning Strategies for Market Players

Institutional Customers – Lucrative Customer Base for Players

One of the biggest strategies that can be used by hydration container manufacturers and players is to aim for customers who are tech-savvy, and are already aware of smart bottles and innovative hydration containers. While adopting this strategy, players can target institutional customers, as they are mostly aware of these new developments. Recently, there has been a remarkable rise in the use of hydration containers by many corporate enterprises and fitness companies.

Customizing hydration containers is another strategy widely being used by various players. They are now customizing hydration containers for special occasions and festivals such as New Year and Christmas, which gives them an upper hand and increases their presence among customers.
