Growing hygiene
awareness among consumers regarding the utility of diapers and rising infant
population across the globe is expected to remain a key driving factor for
global PP absorbent hygiene market over the forecast period. The growing
geriatric population base in the U.S., Japan, and Europe has created demand for
adult incontinence products.
Replacement of synthetic raw materials with
bio-based substitutes are anticipated to create new avenues for industry
participants. Bio-based polypropylene polymers help in preventing skin rashes
among babies, keeping them dry. However, prolonged exposure to polypropylene
absorbent products may cause respiratory tract problems, eye irritation, skin
problems and neurological problems. Several R&D initiatives are being taken
by the market player to improvise their product portfolio in the polypropylene
absorbent hygiene industry.
The global polypropylene (PP) absorbent
hygiene market was valued over USD 9.00 billion in 2014. Polypropylene is one
of the major polymers used in the absorbent hygiene industry. Excellent
physical properties such as mechanical, thermal, chemical and degradation over
other thermoplastics make PP most apt for absorbent hygiene industry.
Polypropylene
is widely used in diapers and sanitary products owing to their higher water
absorption capacity. PP nonwoven fabric has been increasingly gaining
acceptance due to its superior physical qualities such as lightweight,
reusability, toughness, and flexibility as compared to other nonwoven fabrics.

Further key findings from the report suggest:
· Global polypropylene (PP) absorbent hygiene
market demand was 3.22 million tons in 2014 and is expected to reach 5.75
million tons by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 7.6% from 2015 to 2022
· The spunbond technological process emerged
as the leading technology used and accounted for over 45% of total market in
2014. This technology is considered economical in comparison to its
counterparts.
· Baby diapers were the most dominant
application segment and accounted for over 35% of total market volume in 2014.
Increasing birth rates in Asia Pacific is expected to drive this segment over
the forecast period.
· Asia Pacific was the leading regional
market with a demand exceeding 35% of the total market in 2014. Shifting
consumer buying trends coupled with growing urbanization and increasing
disposable income among consumers in India, China, Indonesia and Vietnam is
expected to drive the regional market over the forecast period.
· Growth in developed economies of Europe and
North America is expected to be driven primarily due to increasing geriatric
population. Urinary incontinence has been a major problem among aging
population which leads to pressure sores and skin irritation.
· Major polypropylene absorbent hygiene
market participants include Kimberly Cark, Mitsui, Fibertex, Mada, Pegas
Nonwovens, Jofo and Polymers Group Inc. Companies adopt a low-cost strategy to
attract customers and gain market share. R&D initiatives to develop
superior products play a critical role in penetrating the market.
