India Wipes Market Growth

With one of the highest birth rates in the world, India is experiencing a substantial rise in the population of infants and young children. India witnesses the birth of approximately 25 million children annually, representing nearly one-fifth of the global total of annual births. The rising utilisation of baby wipes in the country is closely associated with the increasing birth rate and heightened awareness regarding infant hygiene. This demographic transformation naturally results in a greater demand for baby care products, particularly baby wipes. Parents are increasingly recognising the significance of maintaining hygiene for their infants to avert skin infections, rashes, and various health complications. Consequently, baby wipes are regarded as a practical and efficient means of cleansing the sensitive skin of babies.

The adoption of wipes within the skincare sector has surged in popularity, attributed to their practicality, effectiveness, and adaptability. The beauty, cosmetics, and grooming market in India is projected to reach USD 20 billion by 2025. Concurrently, India is expected to account for 5% of the global cosmetics market, positioning it among the top five markets worldwide in terms of revenue by that year. Facial wipes are extensively utilised for makeup removal, specifically engineered to efficiently dissolve and eliminate makeup, dirt, and other impurities from the skin, thus offering a convenient solution for rapid and comprehensive cleansing. Skincare wipes are compact and portable, making them ideal for travel or use during a busy day. They offer a swift and uncomplicated method for cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising, and treating the skin, which is especially advantageous for individuals with demanding schedules.
