The water infrastructure repair technologies market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $118.22 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to smart infrastructure, shift towards decentralized water systems, resilience against cyber threats, private sector investments, regulatory evolutions. Major trends in the forecast period include remote inspection technologies, modular infrastructure, hybrid infrastructure approaches, resilience certification, energy harvesting technologies.
The aging water infrastructure is a significant factor driving the water infrastructure repair technologies market. This term refers to any water resource, storage, irrigation, or federal agency project that is over 75 years old. Aging water infrastructure results in the loss of billions of gallons of potable water each year. To avert future water shortages, water utilities must continuously update and enhance their systems. Technologies for repairing water infrastructure are utilized for inspecting, monitoring critical faults, and maintaining essential pipeline systems. For example, in July 2024, *Materials Performance Magazine*, a U.S.-based publication, reported that approximately 33% of water mains are over 50 years old, amounting to around 770,000 miles (1.2 million km) of piping. This percentage remained unchanged in 2023. Consequently, the aging water infrastructure is a key driver of the water infrastructure repair technologies market.
The increase in population is a key factor driving the water infrastructure repair technologies market. Population growth is defined as the net result of births minus deaths and the difference between immigrants and emigrants, either on a global scale or within a specific country, territory, or geographic area. Water infrastructure repair technologies play a crucial role in supporting population growth by ensuring reliable and efficient water supply systems, promoting healthier living conditions, and enabling sustainable urban development. For example, in December 2023, the United Nations (UN), a U.S.-based intergovernmental organization dedicated to maintaining international peace and security, reported that the global population has been steadily increasing, with an expected rise of nearly 2 billion individuals over the next 30 years, growing from the current 8 billion to 9.7 billion by 2050. This population growth is accompanied by demographic changes, including an aging population and varying growth rates across different regions. Therefore, the rise in population is driving the water infrastructure repair technologies market.
Innovative water technologies are emerging as a prominent trend within the water infrastructure repair technologies market. Leading companies in this sector are introducing advanced solutions, including products designed for rapid installation. For instance, in March 2022, NORMA Group, a German-based company in the machine industry, unveiled the NORMA MARLIN PN16, integrating QuickTight technology within a compression fitting product. This innovation significantly reduces installation time for customers, slashing it by approximately 50%. Featuring a specialized lip gasket, this system facilitates the connection of two water lines. The NORMA MARLIN PN16 compression fitting finds applications in various areas such as drinking water installations, irrigation, sanitary systems, and other relevant fields, representing a notable advancement in water infrastructure repair technologies.
Prominent entities within the water infrastructure repair technologies market are directing their efforts toward introducing innovative products, such as comprehensive end-to-end solutions, aimed at combating water loss. An end-to-end solution refers to a holistic and integrated approach that tackles all stages or facets of a specific process or issue. For instance, in January 2023, FIDO Tech Ltd., a tech innovation firm headquartered in the UK and specializing in artificial intelligence (AI) applications for water conservation, unveiled a groundbreaking end-to-end solution. This solution incorporates AI-powered leak detection and monitoring capabilities, providing utilities with a cost-effective and scalable method to diminish water loss. FIDO Direct seamlessly integrates with existing systems while assuring outcomes through a fixed-fee service, significantly contributing to the advancement of water infrastructure repair technologies aimed at addressing the crucial challenge of water loss.
In August 2022, Aliaxis SA, a Belgium-centered producer of plastic piping systems, completed the acquisition of Aquarius Spectrum for an undisclosed sum. This strategic move was intended to enhance Aliaxis SA's array of solutions to address pressing water-related issues, including sustainable water management and robust water infrastructure. Aquarius Spectrum, an Israeli tech firm, specializes in a cutting-edge leak detection system utilizing acoustic sensors and sophisticated analytical engines designed to identify water leaks.
