Market Trends of Baby Toiletries Industry
Increasing Demand for Organic Baby Care Products
- The demand for organic baby care products is increasing among parents as their awareness about harmful synthetic chemicals in baby care products is increasing. Organic baby care products like skincare products, diapers, and other products are increasing among consumers. Due to rising disposable income, high-quality and environmentally friendly baby care products are preferred by parents.
- The market players are innovating new types of diapers with the use of organic and soft fabric and organic ingredients. Because of environmental conditions like UV radiation, desert areas, dry environments, and many more, babies in those regions get affected easily as babies' skin is sensitive.
- Furthermore, due to rising disposable income, consumers are opting for the use of premium baby care products. Market players are launching new organic products in the market to cater to consumer demand. For instance, in February 2021, WaterWipes launched the world's purest baby wipes that contain organic fruit extract and 99.9% of water.
Asia Pacific is the Fastest Growing Market
- Robust economic growth and rising household incomes are expected to increase consumer spending on baby care products, including toiletries, in the region. Asia-Pacific is one of the fastest-growing markets for baby care products due to the rising birth rate. Increasing brand penetration and a vast distribution network are also driving the baby care products market in the region.
- Environmental issues like ultra violet (UV) rays, dry air, and heat are increasing, due to which consumers are opting for the use of protective skincare products for their babies. Therefore, the demand for baby oils, lotions, moisturizers, and other products is increasing. Additionally, the e-commerce sector in the baby toiletries market is also growing.
- New online websites like FirstCry.com, mama earth, Hopscotch.com, and many more are providing desirable products to consumers at low prices with offers and discounts, which is also driving the market. In April 2023, Kinu Baby Care introduced an organic baby care range with the launch of baby lotion, body wash, baby oil, and baby shampoo.
