Future Market Insights (FMI) in its latest market survey presents in-depth study on the key developments in the global wet wipes market. The report is intended to uncover hidden opportunity in various segments including product type, disposability, applications, and end-users. The study also highlights growth strategies adopted by key market players to gain a competitive edge.

DUBAI, U.A.E, Sept. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Growing awareness regarding healthy hygiene practices and the implementation of healthcare programs across various countries to encourage healthy living are translating into high demand for wet wipes.

Considering this, ESOMAR-certified consulting firm Future Market Insights (FMI) has projected the global wet wipes market to reach a valuation of US$ 3.7 Bn in 2021. Expanding at a robust 7.6% CAGR, the market is poised to surpass a valuation of US$ 8.0 Bn by the end of 2031.

Wet wipes, or wet towels are convenient to use and are easily available, making them one of the best-selling personal hygiene products. Steered by the high demand for wet wipes, manufacturers are launching a wide array of products ranging from baby wipes, makeup wipes to disinfectant wipes, and wound care wipes. These factors will create lucrative growth prospects in the forthcoming years.

Market players are launching eco-friendly and biodegradable variants of wet wipes made from wood pulp and cotton as a replacement of synthetic fibers, which in turn is driving sales of wet wipes.

Rising prevalence of health-related disorders in the geriatric population, such as incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD) and catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is spurring demand for wet wipes, particularly in hospitals.

Since wet wipes effectively serve the purpose of maintaining hygiene standards and removal of germs, dirt, and dust build-up on the skin and other physical surfaces, their applications are projected to continue gaining traction over the forecast period.

Besides this, the emergence of local and small players, innovative product development, smart marketing strategies adopted by leading manufacturers, and commercialization of wet wipes are improving growth prospects for the global wet wipes market.

The FMI study projects the U.S. to lead the North America wet wipes market. Rapid expansion of distribution channels, coupled with increasing per capita healthcare expenditure are anticipated to bode well for the wet wipes market in the U.S.

"Expansion of the ecommerce sector is resulting in easy availability and increasing sales of wet wipes across the globe. In addition to this, government-backed healthcare reimbursement plans will continue driving sales of wet wipes over the forecast period," says the FMI analyst.

Key Takeaways:

  • Based on product type, incontinence wipes are projected to account for nearly 27% of the global wet wipes market share over the forecast period.
  • In terms of end users, the hospital segment is anticipated to grow at a 6% CAGR through 2031.
  • The U.S. is estimated to account for over 80% of the North America wet wipes market.
  • Germany will dominate the European wet wipes market, holding 23% of the market share in 2021.
  • China will emerge as a lucrative market, accounting for 40% of the East Asian wet wipes market share.
  • The Japanese wet wipes market is projected to grow at a 9.3% CAGR while the South Korea wet wipes market is estimated to register a robust 10% CAGR through 2031.

Prominent Drivers:

  • Collaborations among key market players to launch innovative products will provide tailwinds to wet wipes sales during the assessment period.

Restraints:

  • Availability of cheaper alternatives such as soaps, cleansing milk, and face washes might hamper sales of wet wipes.
  • Chances of allergic reactions and irritability on the skin might result in decreased sales of wet wipes.
