The global alkaline water purifier market was valued at USD 338.56 million in 2024 and is projected to reach approximately USD 801.49 million by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 9.00% between 2025 and 2034.
An alkaline water purifier not only filters impurities but also enhances drinking water by adding essential minerals and increasing its pH level, typically in the range of 8β9.5. Unlike conventional purifiers, alkaline systems provide re-mineralized water, claimed to aid in hydration, acidity balance, and overall wellness.
Growing consumer health awareness, coupled with rising urban water contamination levels, is fueling global demand. However, high installation and maintenance costs, along with limited scientific validation of certain health claims, pose challenges to widespread adoption.
