Based on our research output, there has been a positive impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The rapid adoption of baby diapers in developing regions is notably driving the global diaper market growth, although factors such as environmental pollution may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the global diaper industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Diaper Market Driver
The rapid adoption of baby diapers in developing regions are one of the key factors driving the growth of the global diaper market. The rise in awareness regarding baby health and hygiene and the increase in disposable income are the key aspects contributing to the growth of the market. Technological advances and innovations in the material and design of diapers have resulted in the introduction of several novel products with superior properties. For instance, the pant type diaper category is very popular in developing countries like Asia. They are extremely easy to use and are comparatively airier and more comfortable than regular diapers, which need to be taped and are tighter than pants. Manufacturers have also introduced smaller packs of diapers as they cost less. One other aspect influencing the growth of the market is the rise in the number of working women in developing countries, which has had a positive impact on product sales. Therefore, the rise in disposable income, increase in innovations, and improved awareness of health and hygiene for babies will drive the growth of the diaper market in developing countries in the near future.
Key Diaper Market Trend
The jellyfish diapers will fuel the global diaper market growth. Jellyfish diapers are being developed by Cine'al, an Israeli nanotechnology start-up, which was inspired by research studying the superabsorbent quality of jellyfish flesh conducted at Tel Aviv University. They aim to provide a cleaner and eco-friendly option for the baby's bottom as well as the environment. These diapers are two times more absorbent compared with other diapers that are present in the market. Normal diapers made of plastic and synthetic polymers take hundreds of years to break down. However, jellyfish diapers degrade in less than 30 days, leading to less environmental pollution. These diapers are made by first breaking down the jellyfish flesh and then adding antibacterial nanoparticles. This results in a substance called hydro mesh, which is used as a raw material. The manufacturing process of these diapers is easy due to the booming jellyfish population worldwide, which is a result of overfishing and global warming. With this kind of eco-friendly innovation, environmental problems like overfilled landfills would be solved, encouraging several consumers to opt for these diapers.
Key Diaper Market Challenge
Environmental pollution is a major challenge for the global diaper market growth. Diapers are posing a major threat to the environment due to the non-biodegradable materials used in their manufacture. Diapers are made up of materials such as plastic, elastics, and superabsorbent polymers, which require a long time to degrade. They make up a major portion of trash in landfills and pose a risk to the environment. Diapers also generate toxins during their degeneration period. Disposable diapers make up more than 40% of the non-biodegradable waste in the US. As a result, several consumers are shifting to eco-friendly diapers, which will cause a slight disturbance to the overall market. The above factors will hinder the growth of the global diapers market during the forecast period.
