<I won't be able to find all the info you need by your deadline.

I've found US sales for pour-through pitchers and faucet-mounted
filters for 2002, 2001 and 2000.

US POU cartridge market for 2005 and 2008.

Number of Japanese households using water filters.>

I suggest you repost the question. Maybe another researcher will find
the info on time.

If the info that I've found is of any use, I suggest that you lower
the question price.

Hope this helps.>
