Emerging markets are key area for future growth in sanitary protection

Forecast growth in developing markets will be aided by habit formation and increases in consumer awareness and product availability. Asia Pacific and the Middle East and Africa (MEA) are the key regions of the future, as Asia Pacific accounts for over half the female population aged 12-54, and MEA will see the fastest growth in this population segment.

Social and cultural shifts are changing the role of women in society

Globally, female education levels have improved, leading to increased participation in the labour force and therefore higher disposable incomes. Women are delaying marriage to focus on education and careers. The higher prevalence of contraceptive usage also provides women with more control and empowerment, which has changed the role of women in the household and society as a whole.

Product needs are changing in tandem with changing roles

As women enter higher education and the workforce, the need for convenient and discreet products that can be taken on the go is increasing. Additionally, as consumers become more health-and environmentally-conscious, they are demanding products that fit in with their values.

Threats to use of disposable sanitary protection

There are several threats to the disposable sanitary protection industry, including the rise of reusable products that comes with the demand for more environmentally-conscious products. Contraceptive usage and obesity may also have an impact on women’s menstrual cycles, which could negatively impact the demand for all menstrual products.

New paradigm for feminine care companies that takes care of all intimate needs
