Adult Diapers Market Size Worth $28.65 Billion By 2025 | CAGR: 12.7%

Adult Diapers Market Growth & Trends

The global adult diaper market size is poised to reach USD 28.65 billion by 2025, progressing at a CAGR of 12.7% from 2019 to 2025, according to a study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is primarily driven by rising prevalence of urinary incontinence among geriatric populations across the world. This is a widespread global disease resulting from obesity, urinary tract infection, and hysterectomy, among others. Adult diapers offer maximum absorbency and protection for those who suffer from aforementioned conditions. Moreover, extensive urbanization, development of the healthcare sector, and increasing awareness regarding the usage of adult diapers for urinary incontinence are projected to provide an upthrust to the market.

Owing to technological advancements, newer variants of adult diapers are being introduced in the market that are not only thinner but also offer improved skin-friendliness and odor control properties. A notable example of such a technologically-advanced product is smart diapers. These diapers resemble the typical disposable diaper in appearance, but are fitted with a small IoT device that has an embedded sensor to detect wearer’s bladder. When it determines that the body is gearing up to pass urine, it triggers an alarm. Innovations like these are anticipated to drive the market over the forecast period.

Moreover, ever-increasing demand for new features in adult diapers, such as perfect body fit, skin-friendliness, superior absorption, elasticity, and odor-free, is estimated to shape the future of the adult diapers market. Additionally, numerous marketing strategies and launches of new and unique products by key market players are expected to boost revenues of companies operating in the adult diapers market. For instance, in 2018, Willow started an online boutique for adult diapers, thereby boosting the growth of the adult diapers market.

However, an array of treatment options such as collagen injections or electrical stimulation are likely to inhibit the growth of the market. Since adult diapers are bulky and costly, several people across the globe prefer to treat incontinence using other methods, which in turn, is poised to hinder adult diaper market growth over the forecast period.
