GLOBAL CRISIS IMPACTS THERMOS FLASK MARKET - COVID-19 IMPACT

"Thermos Flask Market Had A Negative Effect Due To Impacted Supply Chain And Low Production During COVID-19 Pandemic"

Impact of Change in Consumer Lifestyle and Preference Due to COVID-19 on Thermos Flask Business

This global pandemic has taken a heavy hit on the overall Market, and the trend among consumers has reduced drastically in almost all regions compared to the pre-pandemic times. Improvement in CAGR to indicate growth of the Market can be significantly added to the development of the Market and regain the pre-pandemic demand.

Lockdowns and even the travel ban reduced demand in industries like tourism and outdoor recreation. Offices and educational institutes remained closed with fewer on-the-go beverage containers. However, the pandemic also prompted more consumption at home, thereby better personal hygiene that raised demand for personal thermos flasks. With people working from home and homeschooling, there is a new set of applications because everyone needs to have their drinks maintained at some optimum temperature throughout the day. The need for not letting the common utensils and vessels be used by the public would also enhance the demand for personal thermos flasks. All these factors balance out the negatives and thus had a mixed impact on the overall Market during the pandemic.

LATEST TREND

"Rising Demand for Smart and Tech-Integrated Thermos Flasks to Drive Market Growth"

THERMOS FLASK MARKET SEGMENTATION

BY TYPE

Based on types, the Global Market is categorized as stainless steel, glass, and others.

• Stainless Steel thermos flasks: These are one of the most popular types, accounting for a large percentage of the Market. They are tough, retain heat very effectively, and resist corrosion. This has lightened up the vessels with their great-looking view for outdoor activities, travel, and outings.

• Glass thermos flasks: Glass thermos flask, though less in demand compared to stainless steel, has the strong advantage of being taste-free and allowing the contents inside to be seen.

• Others: Other thermoses are from other materials like plastics, copper, or composite. Thermoses made of plastics are less effective in retaining temperature but are lightweight and inexpensive. They are mainly used for casual purposes.

BY APPLICATION

Based on application, the Market is categorized into household, commercial, and others.

• Household: Households account for a significant share of the Thermos Flask Market. These products are largely used at home holding hot or cold beverages and can also stretch from morning coffee to evening tea.

• Commercial: This is the fastest developing area in the Market for thermos flasks. Restaurants, cafes, hotels, and catering services fall into this category.

• Others: These include some of the other niche applications for thermos flasks- the industrial, the laboratory, and healthcare. Industry demands the application of thermoses for the transportation and storage of chemicals or sensitive products, which have to be preserved at a certain temperature

MARKET DYNAMICS

Market dynamics involve drivers, constraints, opportunities, and challenges in the current market scenario.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Rising Environmental awareness to gain momentum in the Market"

The greatest driving force responsible for the Thermos Flask Market share growth is that of increasing environmental awareness among consumers. The growing concern for awareness of single-use plastics and their harmful impacts encourages more and more to opt for reusable containers such as thermos flasks. These, therefore, replace disposable cups and bottles when carrying beverages; the quantity of these can only be minimized. There is a rise in the usage of single-use plastics. Governments and institutions around the globe are developing policies to reduce these single-use plastics. This shift to green products is also offering an environment-friendly benefit and simultaneously setting open a huge market for thermoses across various market segments.

"Growing in the Market due to Rising Outdoor Recreation and Sports Activities"

Another major reason that the Market for thermos flasks is booming is the rising trend of outdoor recreation and sporting activities. Increasing numbers of hikers, campers, trekkers, and other adventurous people have been demanding a stronger and more efficient vessel in which they can drink. Thermos flasks serve best for such needs as they keep their content hot or cold in conditions ranging from extremely cold to infinitely hot conditions. Sports culture has also gained popularity, thus increasing the demand for hydrating products with which visitors to gyms and participants in athletics-related activities need to stay hydrated. Thermoses do this because they can keep cold water or even sports drinks at a set temperature for a very long period and thus become an indispensable accessory for fitness enthusiasts and athletes alike.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

"Competition from other products may limit the growth of the Market"

Another constraint to the development of the Thermos Flask Market is the competition from other products, including smart water bottles, hydration packs, and electric beverage warmers. Many such products are aimed at distinct differentiated functions or functionalities targeted at specific consumer groups. Smart hydration bottles, that monitor one's hydration, have been successful among health-conscious consumers and thus take away from the market share from other solutions represented by traditional thermos flasks. Compact electric beverage warmers offer the office worker or driver an on-demand alternative to heating drinks rather than relying on insulation. The existence of these alternatives may reduce the prospects for market penetration by thermos flasks in some niches, and this will necessarily slow overall market growth.

OPPORTUNITY

"Opportunity for Product Differentiation in the Market through Customization and Personalization"

Product customization is fast becoming the norm in the Thermos Flask Market. Consumers are now looking for something such as personalized products that give a specific style and expression of consumer preference. For this reason, manufacturers of the thermos flask can also offer color choice, engraving capacity, or even design-to-order. They can also partner with a brand, sports team, or franchise with followers to create a limited edition or a series of thermos flasks. Such characteristics certainly meet the very personal, individualistic appeal of exclusive and customized products, so they can be helpful to companies to create product lines that are unique in very commodified markets command a premium price and win customer loyalty.

CHALLENGE

"Maintaining Product Quality and Safety Standards"

Some of the hard tests that manufacturers have to face are maintaining high quality and safety standards; sometimes, these can be tough because the Market opens up and new entrants come seeking to share space with long-time established vendors. Thermos flasks have to meet uncompromising standards on retention of temperature and toughness, along with food safety requirements. On top of this list is whether chemicals present inside the product, like BPA, leak into the fluids it contains and vice versa. For most manufacturers, the most pressing challenge will be balancing requirements such as quality and safety against being cost-effective and mass-produced. Simultaneously, with smart and technology-integrated thermos flasks gaining ground, ensuring that electronic components work reliably and safely poses another sort of challenge altogether. International standards and laws further complicate the manufacturing as well as the distribution process for participants in the global Market. Deviation from rigid norms results in recalls, bruising of brand images, and legal hassles. These issues exercise pressure on markets and their stability to achieve great strides.
