Home Care in
Country Report
Executive Summary
Feb 2019Lower unit price causes slight decline in value sales
Home care remained under pressure in Belgium in 2018. Many home care categories are facing declining volume sales due to changing detergent concentration or evolving consumption habits (for instance, millennials tend to do less laundry than elderly people do).
Performance is the target for both consumers and manufacturers
Performance was the keystone in 2018. Consumers are looking for better performance from home care products.
Private label is put under cover and new channels are sought
Home care in Belgium has a high private label share. As major A-brands have decided to stop private label’s growth, using an aggressive price promotion strategy, private label within traditional grocery retailers is no longer expanding.
Developing trends include beauty and eco-friendly products
In 2018, the most noticeable launch in home care in Belgium was Lovables by Henkel Belgium NV, a premium range of laundry care which features beauty care product names instead of home care product names. Lovables symbolises a new development trend in home care whereby manufacturers try to transfer a product from a mature category to a growing category.
Expectations of growth in the forecast period are limited for home care
With its maturity and high penetration in Belgium, home care expects limited dynamism in terms of forecast period growth. Value sales of home care will see only slight growth in current terms over the forecast period, while they are set to decline further in constant 2018 terms.
