Rising Commercial Construction Boosts Asia Pacific Drain Cleaning Equipment Market
Various developing countries in the Asia Pacific region are witnessing high growth in their commercial construction sector owing to rising per capita income, urbanization, and changing lifestyle of population. For instance, Bangkok is seeing a sharp increase in the number of shopping centers as it works to maintain its position as the luxury city of Southeast Asia. Significantly, Bangkok will open at least five massive projects by 2023 with the goal of establishing itself as a hub for expats living in the city as well as visitors drawn by the upscale retail and luxury industries. One of these massive undertakings is the opening of Bangkok Mall, which is intended to be Southeast Asia's largest mall.Bangkok's commercial construction service is likely to see a 3%-4% increase in private investment in 2023 and 2024, primarily due to the tourism sector's stronger-than-anticipated recovery and local consumption. Already accounting for about 17% of Thailand's GDP, the retail industry is the nation's second most significant economic sector, behind manufacturing.
Furthermore, in its Smart Cities Plan, the Australian government outlines its urban vision and a plan to realize the full potential of cities. The government has set aside US$ 50 million to support this objective in order to make it easier to plan, carry out, and create significant infrastructure transformation projects. Additionally, it is anticipated that the long-term infrastructural development in Australian market will be fueled by the spike in investments in residential and commercial infrastructure, notably in the construction of tall buildings.
The expansion of commercial construction offers a promising opportunity to the drain cleaning equipment market. As the number of commercial buildings grows, there will be a heightened demand for maintenance services, including drain cleaning.
Asia Pacific Drain Cleaning Equipment Market Overview
APAC comprises several developing economies, such as China and India and many Southeast Asian countries, which are robustly investing in infrastructure projects. The large population of Asia Pacific has led to increased demand for residential and commercial construction. The growing population of Asian countries is the main driver for the construction sector in the region.As per the data published by the United Nations in 2022, the global population reached 8 billion in 2022, and Asia Pacific's population reached 4.3 billion in the same year, accounting for half of the total global population. Such growth in the population in the region has supported the construction industry in Asia Pacific. As per the data provided by the government of India, the construction industry in India is projected to reach US$ 1.4 trillion by 2025.
Approximately 80% of wastewater in Asia Pacific is discharged without treatment. Groundwater, rivers, and beaches are polluted by open defecation, lack of proper sanitation, and ineffective wastewater management systems; the same water is used for drinking, fishing, bathing, and swimming. Many countries in the region still do not prioritize sanitation, particularly when it comes to wastewater management. It is a low priority in policymakers' agenda due to its lack of capacity, high capital costs, excessive running and maintenance costs, lack of awareness of impacts, and misconceptions about potential advantages. Investors are discouraged from entering this sector due to reduced demand and a lack of a favorable environment.
