Executive summary
Higher AFH than retail value growth
AFH disposable paper products grew 3% faster than retail disposable paper products in 2008 sales. Although both segments recorded positive growth in 2008, this was mainly the result of unit price increases as opposed to increased volume demand. In addition, it should be noted that AFH disposable paper products still only accounts for 15% of total disposable paper products value sales in Slovenia. Toilet paper remained the largest retail segment in 2008, accounting for some 37% of total value sales, whilst kitchen towels was the fastest growing segment, recording retail value growth of 8%. Tissues and incontinence products were the slowest growing segments, recording retail value growth of just 1%.
Limited demand for eco-friendly products
Despite a general increase in consumer environmental awareness, demand for ecological products remains limited in Slovenia. Indeed, some producers even attempt to hide the fact that their products are made from recycled materials. In addition, many manufacturers are turning away from eco-friendly production due to the fact that it is often complex, time consuming, and offers little profit. This trend is particularly evident within the AFH segment, where profit margins are already low. However, increasing consumer health awareness means that demand for eco-friendly products is higher within areas like nappies/diapers/pants and sanitary protection.
Private label brands lead retail sales in 2008
Private label brands led sales within disposable paper products in 2008, recording a retail value share of 31% - an increase of two percentage points upon 2007. Private label brands continue to increase in popularity due to their low prices, improving quality, and the fact that producers of such products are reacting to changing consumer trends far more quickly than before.
Hospitals/healthcare and supermarkets/hypermarkets lead distribution sales
In 2008, the hospitals/healthcare channel accounted for the majority of AFH sales, recording a retail distribution share of 50%, mainly due to the large demand for incontinence products. Within the retail segment, supermarkets/hypermarkets continued to dominate sales, recording a distribution retail value share of 67%.
Value sales expected to continue to increase over forecast period
Both AFH and retail value sales are expected to continue to increase over the forecast period. Although rising demand for premium products will continue to fuel growth within the retail segment, the likely economic downturn in 2009, due to the impact of the global financial crisis, will result in a slowdown in value growth. Within the AFH segment, the impact of the financial crisis will be strongest within the horeca channel. However, although the economic downturn is likely to result in lower value growth rates, industry experts do not believe that there is any danger of a decline in value sales over the forecast period.
