Disposable Baby Products in the United States
Mintel, Oct 2007, Pages: 87
Consisting of disposable diapers, training pants, wipes, and baby cleansing and care products, the disposable baby products market is estimated at $7 billion, including a Wal-Mart estimate for the largest segment, disposable diapers and training pants. This report analyzes both primary and secondary research to dissect the market and provide valuable insights into current sales, product trends, and challenges and opportunities in the market.
Insights include:
- How changing birth rates impacted the market and which racial/ethnic groups have had a higher number of births and how age patterns within these groups have current and future implications
- How the increase in age of pregnant mothers is affecting sales
- Which products and trends have affected sales, including increased segmentation of product lines by age group; the expansion of upscale natural products to the mass market; and increased focus on learning elements
- Which segments are seeing increased market share and why
- What is the role of private label and how is it changing the behavior of dominant brand manufacturers
This report also uses consumer data from Simmons and Mintel's own exclusive survey to analyze and support research findings. Findings include:
- Which racial/ethnic groups have higher usage rates of specific products and what factors influence this use, including age and cultural influences
- How significant is the brand penetration of market leaders and private label-what factors determine this penetration, including use by age of child and racial/ethnic group
- How do choice of retail channels vary by race/ethnicity and why
- What are the features or attributes that consumers look for, and for which are they willing to pay more
By using sales data for FDM; estimates for other channels including Wal-Mart; and consumer survey results, the report analyzes the increasingly competitive disposable baby products market. The report highlights both challenges and opportunities for the market.
