IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON THE GLOBAL TANKLESS WATER HEATER MARKET
The outbreak of COVID-19 has negatively impacted various industries and countries across the globe. Decline has been witnessed in the growth rate of the industries such as construction & building, transportation, oil & gas, automotive, and energy sectors owing to the lockdown imposed, globally. This has further declined the need for tankless water heaters, which, in turn, has hampered the growth of the tankless water heater market in 2020. In Europe , economies such as Germany, France, Spain and, Italy follow stringent measures such as attaining social distancing and limiting movements to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
Furthermore, building & construction activities across the globe were on hold during the pandemic period owing to strict measures of social distancing, lack of labor, and raw material supply disruptions. This further declined the growth of the market in 2020. Moreover, temporary shutdown of factories, manufacturing bases, and other processing industries hampered the growth of the tankless water heater market. Thus, all these factors collectively led to decreased the global tankless water heater market growth in 2020, and are expected to foster the market growth by the end of the second quarter of 2021.
