According to the report, the Europe bottled water market reached a value of about USD 67.87 billion in 2023. Aided by the rising consumer demand for pure and portable water sources and an increasing preference for healthier beverage alternatives, the market is further estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% in the forecast period of 2024-2032 to reach a value of around 108.98 billion by 2032.
Bottled water stands as a convenient, clean, and often mineral-enriched alternative to tap water. In Europe, the product spans across various categories, including spring water, mineral water, purified water, and flavoured water. The region's focus on health and wellness, combined with the diverse range of bottled water products available, has placed bottled water as a top beverage choice.
The rising health consciousness among European consumers significantly drives the European bottled water market demand. With increasing awareness about the potential health risks associated with sugary and carbonated beverages, many consumers are turning to bottled water as a healthier and calorie-free alternative. This shift is evident not only among individuals but also in institutions, eateries, and public spaces where bottled water is predominantly offered.
Environmental concerns and the push for sustainability are both challenges and driving forces in the European bottled water market. While the environmental impact of plastic bottles has been a significant concern, the bottled water industry has responded by investing heavily in eco-friendly packaging solutions, recycling initiatives, and public awareness campaigns. Biodegradable bottles, refill stations, and glass packaging options have become more prevalent in the market.
Moreover, Europe's rich natural landscape, dotted with springs and aquifers, further poses a positive impact on the European bottled water market outlook. Countries like France and Italy are not only significant consumers but also key exporters of premium mineral and sparkling water brands.
Additionally, the tourism industry in Europe, particularly in regions with a Mediterranean climate, significantly boosts the demand for bottled water. Tourists, unaccustomed to local tap water or traversing regions with limited potable water, often rely on bottled water for their hydration needs.
