STORMWATER MANAGEMENT MARKET OVERVIEW

The global stormwater management market size was valued at approximately USD 17.77 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 31.87 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 6.7% from 2025 to 2033.

Snow, ice, and rain all contribute to the creation of stormwater. It may run off the surface or remain there, gradually evaporating or soaking into the ground (called infiltration). One of the main sources of pollution is flowing stormwater. An increase in stormwater flow can alter natural flow patterns and result in the erosion of streams and vegetation growth. When stormwater-accelerated dirty water runoff from roadways mixes with other major water bodies, such as lakes, and oceans, it can lead to water contamination in some developed areas.

Stormwater management includes maintaining stormwater systems and controlling the gathering, storing, and flowing. In addition to wastewater management, drainage is considered while designing cities and housing developments. It includes services for monitoring, replacing, and maintaining stormwater equipment. Local communities benefit from effective environmental, social, and economic management of stormwater. Therefore, both stormwater management components enhance the quality of the water obtained from precipitation and manage and minimize runoff. The method of stormwater management is a safer and more environmentally friendly strategy since it reduces harm to people and property. It also protects local bodies of water from being polluted by runoff. 

COVID-19 Impact: Rising Demand for Freshwater Boosted Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with stormwater management experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Washing your hands frequently with soap and water is one of the most important tips for controlling sickness. Instead of the regular average of five times per day, the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) states that everyone in this condition must wash their hands at least ten times daily. Water use increased due to this. Fresh water is needed to meet the demand for and supply of water. Because stormwater management improves water quality by minimizing and directing rainwater runoff or melting snow from lawns or streets, it is projected that increased demand for freshwater is estimated to propel the stormwater management market growth.

LATEST TRENDS

Rising Demand for Clean Water to Foster Market Growth

Preserving a clean environment is crucial for everyone's health and economy. Clean waterways and well-kept storm drain provide our surroundings with chances for leisure, commerce, fish habitat, and scenic value. Unmaintained storm drains can cause retention or detention drains to get clogged with debris or silt. Water stops flowing through completely clogged drains, which causes a buildup that eventually causes flooding. Drainage flooding is the cause of flooding in the streets and basements. The majority of impermeable surfaces, such as parking lots, roads, sidewalks, and others, are to blame for this. The outbreak of the pandemic and the prevalence of various chronic diseases are projected to boost the stormwater management market growth.

DRIVING FACTORS

Governments' Emphasis On Improving Yield Farm to Offer Lucrative Growth Opportunities

The government's emphasis on clean water surges the demand for stormwater management. The demand for clean water is increasing due to the rising population, which boosts the need for water and wastewater management. The government has imposed various strict norms against water pollution and water management. Special laws have been implemented for the protection of water from harmful wastewater discharge. These factors are anticipated to augment the market growth. 

Stringent Regulations On Efficient Water Management to Surge Market Growth

Recent years have seen a substantial increase in the amount of wastewater produced due to technical advancements in production processes. If improperly treated before being dumped into freshwater sources, effluents from businesses that produce chemicals, insecticides, rare metals, and other toxic substances and materials are hazardous to the environment and may have catastrophic impacts. As a result, organizations like the U.S. EPA and FAO have established regulatory limitations on the presence of such chemicals in effluents prior to environmental disposal. It addresses wastewater discharged from oil fields, oil drilling, production, and well treatment activities in coastal, on-land, and offshore areas. The rules involve severe fines and prison terms as penalties for violators.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Cost and Use of Corrosive Chemicals to Hinder Market Growth

The requirement for experts to hinder the market growth. Store-bought drain cleaners are used to clean the pipes, but they use many corrosive chemicals, evading the pipe's quality. Moreover, hiring professional plumbers requires a high cost, which may hamper stormwater management market growth.
