The increasing demand for outdoor recreation is expected to drive the growth of the portable shower market in the coming years. Outdoor recreation refers to leisure activities conducted in natural or outdoor settings, such as camping, hiking, boating, and similar pursuits primarily for enjoyment, fitness, or nature engagement. This demand is driven by a growing focus on health and wellness, as more people seek physical activity and time in nature to improve well-being. Portable showers support outdoor recreation by providing compact and easy-to-use bathing solutions, making them ideal for camping, hiking, and travel. They offer convenient access to water for cleaning and hygiene, improving comfort and extending the duration of outdoor activities. For example, in May 2025, the Bureau of Economic Analysis, a US-based government agency, reported that the outdoor recreation sector contributed $639.5 billion in 2023 (current-dollar value added), up $52.7 billion (9%) from $586.9 billion in 2022. Therefore, the increasing demand for outdoor recreation is fueling the growth of the portable shower market.

Key companies in the portable shower market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as vehicle-mounted portable shower systems, to enhance convenience, improve accessibility, and expand post-activity hygiene options for outdoor enthusiasts. Vehicle-mounted portable shower systems are self-contained units that attach to a vehicle's tailgate or hitch, providing an on-demand water source for cleaning gear or personal use in remote locations. For example, in July 2024, RinseKit Inc., a US-based manufacturer of portable pressurized shower systems, launched the 10-Gallon Tailgate Shower. This portable, vehicle-mounted system is designed for outdoor activities and features a patent-pending mounting system that securely attaches to a vehicle's tailgate or hitch receiver. It includes an integrated 10-gallon tank and a rechargeable, battery-powered pump, providing pressurized, on-demand water flow. This setup eliminates the need for gravity-fed systems and offers a practical shower experience for users such as mountain bikers without requiring permanent vehicle modifications.

In March 2023, The WASH Foundation, a US-based nonprofit water, sanitation, and hygiene organization, partnered with Hai to install Hai smart showerheads on Fresh Start Wash and Wellness mobile shower units.
