Mounting Demand for Adult Incontinence Products Bring in a New Trend Wave

The United Nation World Population Ageing Report (2015) projects that between 2015 and 2030, the global population aged above 60 years would be swelling by a whopping 56%. Furthermore, according to the Urology Care Foundation, one in three adults may have some kind of a bladder control problem and around 80% of these patients are females. Given the stats, physical and medical factors are collectively causing significant changes in the incontinent adult demographics. The consumer would be younger, aware, and more active, which clearly points to a new trend wave likely to be influencing the disposable hygiene adhesives market.

The demand for more convenient, discreet, softer, thinner, and drier incontinence products is thus increasing rapidly. Growing demand for underwear-like hygiene products is another factor supporting the innovation of adhesives in the market. Responding to these demands, H.B. Fuller recently introduced Conforma™ adhesive stretches and retracts that would enable hygiene product manufacturers to integrate next-gen features into their designs.

While North America and Western Europe are currently struggling within the baby diaper segment, sales continue to show a strong uptick in Asia Pacific, led by China and India. On the other hand, adult incontinence products are selling out significantly in the mainstream consumer markets of North America and Western Europe. Ultra-premium quality, breathable, and softer materials have been gaining robust traction recently.
