Retail tissue saw slightly higher retail volume and current value growth in 2020 than in any other year of the review period. Stockpiling was seen at the beginning of both the first and second COVID-19 lockdowns, particularly within toilet paper, due to its essential and non-perishable nature and consumers being concerned about shortages and how long the lockdowns would last.
Recent innovations in retail tissue are contributing to the sustained sales in 2021. For example, Okay’s new ‘paper towels in a box’ product was voted product of the year in 2020.
Private label has established a dominant position in retail tissue in both retail volume and current value terms. Retailers such as Carrefour and Auchan are leading the category, having established consumer trust in the quality of their products whilst maintaining lower prices than the top branded products.
Retail tissue is set to resume more normalised sales results over the forecast period, reaching stability. Given the strong take up of the vaccination roll out, COVID-19 is having less impact.
Retail tissue is a relatively mature category in France. Manufacturers have already introduced various innovative soft products with multiple layers, therefore there is now less scope for development.
Facial tissues is set to see the strongest retail volume growth in the forecast period, with boxed facial tissues performing particularly well. However, this is also a mature category, and growth is expected to be minimal.
