Description
Wipes
US demand for wipes – including wet and dry types – is forecast to grow 3.1% per year to $3.7 billion in 2023, supported by favorable economic conditions and demographic trends. Despite market maturity in key segments such as baby wipes, expansion opportunities exist for premium products that use gentler formulations, natural additives, and sustainable/biodegradable substrates that improve flushability, as well as products that target specific applications (e.g., healthcare-acquired infection prevention) and less established demographics (e.g., men, seniors).
This study covers the US market for wipes by type (i.e., wet and dry) and market (i.e., consumer and industrial & institutional, including manufacturing, healthcare, and commercial markets). Wet and dry wipe demand is further broken out by product type.
Pricing data, retail sales by product and other key retail trends (e.g., private label vs. brand name penetration), and consumer insights derived from Freedonia’s proprietary consumer survey data are also presented. In addition to competitive strategies, mergers and acquisitions, marketing and distribution trends, and other corporate activities, market share by leading participant is provided for each product group.
Products encompass the following main groups (which are segmented by primary application):
Baby wipes (diaper changing)
Personal care wipes (personal hygiene, facial, hand-cleaning, medicated)
Household care wipes (general purpose cleaning, floor care)
Manufacturing wipes (general purposes and special purpose)
Healthcare wipes (hard surface disinfectant, skin disinfectant, patient care wipes)
Commercial & institutional wipes (foodservice)
