Diapers are absorbent garments worn by infants, babies, or adults to urinate or defecate without using a toilet. They are generally made from natural or synthetic fibers and plastic resins. Nowadays, manufacturers operating in India are launching diapers with an inner lining containing non-chlorine, latex and dye-free, and skin-friendly compounds, such as vitamin E and aloe vera gel. These diapers help prevent skin irritation caused by chemicals and offer convenience, increased hygiene, high elasticity, enhanced comfort qualities, and a low risk of skin damage. Diaper Market in India Trends:
The growing focus on personal hygiene, coupled with changing lifestyles and increasing purchasing power of individuals, represents one of the key factors positively influencing the sales of diapers in India. Apart from this, the rising geriatric population who have obesity, cognitive impairment, chronic coughs, constipation, and urinary tract infection is at a high risk of developing urinary incontinence. This, in turn, is contributing to the growth of the market. Moreover, regular diapers made using non-biodegradable materials lead to a massive amount of untreated waste and land pollution. Consequently, rising environmental concerns among the masses, along with the increasing awareness about the harmful impact of chemicals present in conventional diapers, are strengthening the market growth of biodegradable diapers via online distribution channels. Besides this, leading players operating in the country are launching innovative diapers incorporated with nanotechnology to replace potentially harmful materials. This, in confluence with increasing birth rates and the growing concerns among parents about infant health and hygiene, is anticipated to offer lucrative growth opportunities to key players in the country.
