Rising inclination towards green and plant-based products has piqued the interest of many manufactures to provide a chemical-free product. For instance, in May 2021, Coterie Wipes, a U.S.-based wet wipes brand, recently launched wet wipes consisting of 99% water. They are the most sustainable and the largest (up to 30% bigger) baby wipes on the U.S. market made from 100% plant-based biodegradable and compostable materials.
The baby wipes product segment led the market in 2020. The increasing consumer spending on baby care and hygiene products is expected to boost the demand for baby wipes in the future. Moreover, manufacturers are focusing on research activities to manufacture plastic-free biodegradable wipes.
The supermarkets and hypermarkets segment emerged as the largest distribution channel segment in 2020 as it is the most popular outlet among consumers for the purchase of all daily-use items, including personal care and hygiene products. Factors such as freedom of selection, lower prices, high visibility of international brands, and reasonable gross discounts make them a suitable platform for all types of customers.
North America dominated the global market in 2020. The major factors driving this regional market are the changing lifestyles of the people, an increase in the number of working women, rising online retailing trends, and increasing disposable income. Moreover, growing awareness among women regarding baby hygiene is fueling the demand for baby wet wipes across the developing markets of North America.
The market players face stiff competition from each other as some of them are among the top wet wipes manufacturers and have a large customer base. The market is fragmented with the presence of a large number of global and regional players.
