Thesis

The current thesis for water treatment and chemicals remains bullish as of Spring 2025. The demand for advanced water treatment solutions continues to rise due to stricter regulatory requirements, particularly concerning PFAS contaminants, and increasing industrial activity. Companies like 6370 JP, KEMIRA FH, and 6254 JP are well-positioned to benefit from these trends with their specialized technologies in filtration, purification, and water management. However, cost overruns and potential regulatory changes could pose risks to their growth prospects.

Bull case

  • Increased regulatory scrutiny on PFAS and other contaminants is driving demand for advanced water treatment technologies.

  • Industrial growth, particularly in semiconductor manufacturing, requires ultrapure water, boosting the market for specialized treatment chemicals.

  • Technological advancements in water treatment solutions are creating opportunities for market leaders to capture a larger share.

Bear case

  • Rising operational costs and supply chain disruptions could hamper profitability for companies in the water treatment sector.

  • Potential regulatory delays or changes could affect the anticipated growth in demand for water treatment solutions.

  • Competition from new entrants with disruptive technologies could pressure market leaders' margins.
