Study Overview

The plumbing market is a sub-segment of the water and gas installation market, and therefore of the construction and maintenance/renovation market. It's an activity that's constantly in demand, as infrastructures need to be kept in good working order. The global plumbing market has been growing steadily for the past decade, and is set to continue growing at a rate of over 5.4% over 2022-2030. The real estate crisis of 2023 impacted the building sector by limiting the number of new homes under construction: in the first quarter of 2024, housing starts fell by a historic 23%. This had repercussions on plumbing, which represents a substantial share of the construction sector. The French market is highly fragmented, with the big construction players Eiffages, Vinci and Bouygues surprisingly accounting for only a reasonable share of the plumbing market (less than 20% of plumbing sales ). The supply trend was towards contactless plumbing, which had been developing since the pandemic and the emergence of barrier gestures. Since 2023, the trend has been towards connected plumbing, in which major investments are being made. Flovea, a specialist in connected plumbing in France, raised 1.5 million euros in 2023 to further develop its Flowbox product (an algorithm that analyzes household habits to reduce water consumption).
