Netherlands Bottled Water Market 2025

The Netherlands bottled water market is poised for gradual expansion, anticipated to grow by USD 0.4 billion with a CAGR of around 3.9% throughout the 2025 to 2030 forecast period. In the Netherlands, the bottled water market is influenced by growing health-conscious consumption and the gradual diversification of product formats to cater to lifestyle-oriented demand.

Municipal tap water in the Netherlands ranks among the highest in Europe in terms of quality and accessibility, reducing the necessity for bottled alternatives in daily consumption. However, shifting preferences toward low-calorie hydration have encouraged consumers to substitute sugary drinks with bottled water, especially among urban professionals and health-conscious youth. Flavored and functional waters—particularly those enhanced with electrolytes or vitamins—are gradually expanding their presence on retail shelves, positioning bottled water within broader wellness narratives.

At the same time, convenience and portability have emerged as pivotal consumption drivers. Dutch consumers favor smaller, on-the-go bottle sizes for commutes, workouts, and workplace consumption, supported by widespread availability in supermarkets, train stations, and kiosks. Despite mounting sustainability concerns, the relatively high recycling rates in the country and the implementation of deposit-return schemes have somewhat mitigated resistance to bottled products. Packaging innovation—including reusable bottle designs—is expected to play an increasing role in future market differentiation.
