DRIVING FACTORS

Developing Countries' Production Demand to Accelerate Market Growth

The market will see an uptick in demand as developing countries pace the production of hygiene products due to massive demand. Countries in South Asia are stirring towards hygiene products as the population grows older and they comprehend the importance of hygiene in daily life. Lockdowns induced the need for personal hygiene in every household, which is why the demand for incontinence products is rising. This primary consumer demand will drive growth shortly.

Aging Population in Developing Countries to Boom Adult Incontinence Products

In countries like Japan, where the older population outnumbers the youth, the demand for adult incontinence products is unprecedented. Adult pants and diapers must function smoothly for older people, thus driving the hygiene converting machine market growth. Developing sustainable products with zero defects and green polymers is best suited for the more aging population to receive consumer satisfaction. Thus, countries with a rapidly growing older population are a potential source of investment in the market.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Penetration Markets to Cause Slump in Market

High penetration markets in developing countries may cause a decline in the market. The larger the region's population, the greater the challenge of a company to cater to consumer demands and preferences. With low penetration markets, manufacturers work with consumers to meet demand. However, the same isn't possible for high penetration markets or developing countries.
