Purchases of Ultrapure Water Cartridges by Just a Few Companies Total $300
Million
Cartridges play a major role in providing ultrapure water (UPW).
In semiconductor plants, the water is first purified in cross-flow
membrane systems but then sent long distances to tools.
Cartridges located at the tools ensure that any contamination generated
in transport is removed. Cartridges
are used in ultrapure water systems to provide water for injection (WFI) in the
pharmaceutical industry. Systems to
provide the pure water needed for steam generation in the power industry also
utilize cartridges.
Power plants, electronics manufacturers and pharmaceutical producers will spend
$300 million in 2015 on non-woven, membrane, ceramic and metal cartridges for
their UPW applications. Detailed
forecasts are included in N024 Cartridge
Filters: World Market.
The purchases will be concentrated among relatively few companies.
The top 20 companies will purchase 37 percent of the total cartridges and
the top 50 companies will average more than one percent each ($3 million).
The top eight semiconductor companies will account for purchases of $51 million.
The top ten power generators will each spend $42 million. The top four
flat panel and other electronics manufacturers will spend $18 million.

Pfizer is the top pharmaceutical purchaser but is only ranked #23 on the list of
the 40 largest purchasers.
The large ultrapure water cartridge purchasers are moving toward global
sourcing for several reasons. One is the importance of the products to the plant
operations. A single small particle can cause rejection of a $300 chip.
Contaminated drugs are one of the biggest concerns of pharmaceutical companies.
The ultra supercritical power plants which are now under construction require
water purity levels far greater than the sub critical power plants which they
are replacing.
The second reason for global sourcing is to facilitate evaluations on total cost
of ownership. The high cost of these evaluations is spread out among a number of
purchases. The benefits of buying the best rather than lowest price
cartridge far outweigh the costs.
The combination of concentration of buying power and emphasis on highest quality
products creates a new and major opportunity for cartridge providers.
McIlvaine has created a new route to market to take advantage of this
opportunity. It combines
N024
Cartridge Filters: World Market
with other McIlvaine services to provide detailed forecasting of Markets,
Prospects and Projects.
