The increase in cases of water-borne diseases in the Asia Pacific and Latin America is one of the major factors driving the pH meters market expansion. According to the data published by India Water Portal in 2019, 37.7 million Indians are affected by waterborne diseases annually. The number is increasing every day and with such rapid growth in waterborne diseases, the demand for pH meters also increases, thereby propelling market size. Rising urbanization and industrialization lead to water pollution, triggering waterborne diseases.
Moreover, improper hygiene and sanitation contaminate groundwater and rural piped supplies. Such microbial contamination is widespread in middle and low-income countries, fecal contamination being most prevalent. This further leads to increased pollution of water bodies. Thus, the rise in cases of various waterborne diseases and technological advancements in pH meters will boost market trends.
