A faucet is a mechanism regulating the release of liquid, particularly water, from a pipe. It consists of a spout, handle, cartridge, aerator, chamber, and inlet sources, typically made from materials such as brass, steel, die-cast zinc, or chrome-plated plastic. Faucets are used to control the flow of liquid by opening or closing a tap.
The primary types of faucets are electronic and manual. Electronic faucets are operated by an infrared sensor and are commonly employed in commercial kitchens and public bathrooms to conserve water and minimize the spread of germs. Faucets are crafted using materials such as metal and plastic, and they incorporate various technologies, including cartridge, compression, ceramic disc, and ball mechanisms. These technologies determine the faucet's functionality and durability. Faucets find diverse applications in areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, and other spaces. They cater to a wide range of end users, including both residential and commercial settings.

The growth in urbanization is driving the expansion of the faucet market. The migration of the human population from rural to urban areas is gradually increasing as people seek employment and a better standard of living, leading to a rise in urbanization worldwide. One of the most notable effects of urbanization is the growing demand for housing and commercial infrastructure, which in turn boosts the demand for faucets. For instance, in March 2025, according to Our World in Data, a UK-based organization, it is projected that by 2050, 7 out of 10 people globally will reside in urban areas. Moreover, by 2050, only a few countries are expected to have higher rural populations than urban. Therefore, the continuing rise in urbanization will drive demand for high-end apartments, houses, and skyscrapers in developing nations, which will consequently promote the growth of premium bathroom and kitchen accessories, including automated or sensor faucets.
Major companies operating in the faucet market are concentrating on advancing technologies such as touchless and smart faucet systems to boost hygiene, enhance water efficiency, and facilitate smooth smart-home integration. Touchless smart faucets incorporate sensor-based activation and digital controls to provide hands-free operation, accurate water dispensing, and temperature feedback. For example, in May 2024, Delta Faucet Company, a U.S.-based producer of kitchen and bath fixtures, introduced Touch2O with Touchless Technology across several kitchen faucet lines. The product employs a capacitive sensor to detect a user's hand within roughly four inches for true touchless activation, while maintaining manual and tap-to-activate options, and includes TempSense LED indicators to show water temperature, delivering convenience and flexibility for both new installations and retrofit projects.
