Personal Hygiene Market — Adult Incontinence & Elder Care Hygiene
Adult incontinence and elder-care hygiene are fast-growing areas within the Personal Hygiene Market, propelled by ageing populations and longer life expectancy. Products include adult diapers, bed pads, skin-protective creams, and discreet wearable solutions designed for comfort and dignity. Caregiver convenience—easy-change designs, odour control, and absorbency performance—drives product
innovation and brand loyalty. Healthcare providers and assisted-living facilities constitute major buyers alongside retail consumers.
Manufacturers focus on material innovation (breathable fabrics, super-absorbent polymers), sizing diversity and sustainability (recyclable components or compostable alternatives where possible). Partnerships with healthcare systems and caregivers for education and bulk procurement accelerate adoption in institutional channels. As demographic trends continue, adult incontinence will remain an essential, growing segment with both clinical and retail pathways.
