Water Treatment, Water Treatment Everywhere

Water treatment is projected to become an onrushing business.

According to EL Insights, over the next twenty years, it will require investments of nearly $335 billion to make the US water systems safe and reliable.

In the next five years alone, the US corporate water treatment market is expected to rise from $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion.

Increasingly, corporations are realizing water is integral to the health of the global economy—and its scarcity could threaten their bottom-lines.

In “Unlocking the Profit in Water Savings,” a report from the Ethical Corporation, found that companies are getting serious about environmental challenges beyond carbon emissions—with 99% of the sustainability professionals surveyed saying that water-related concerns are going to be an increasing priority for business in the coming five to ten years.

Corporations are primarily concerned with reducing water use and increasing water efficiency.
