Segment Highlights: The 25-75 gallon capacity range is expected to grow fastest because it suits residential use, small gardens, and simple installation near downspouts. Plastic holds the largest material share thanks to affordability, light weight, and resistance to rust, corrosion, and rot. Open head barrels are projected to hold the larger revenue share because the removable lid simplifies filling, cleaning, and maintenance, and because they come in many colors and styles. Plastic barrels also require minimal maintenance compared with other materials, and open head barrels connect easily to downspouts for both residential and commercial rainwater harvesting setups.
