“The still water segment is estimated to account for the largest share in the bottled water market in 2018.”
On the basis of product type, the bottled water market is segmented into still water and sparkling water. The still water segment is further sub-segmented into still flavored and still unflavored water, while the sparkling water segment is further sub-segmented into sparkling flavored and sparkling unflavored water.

“The plastic segment in the bottled water market is projected to record the fastest growth through 2023.”
