Market Size and Forecast

According to a recent research by WASH Poverty Diagnostic, which is an initiative by the World Bank, around 25% of women lack menstrual hygiene management in Nigeria. Moreover, in Bangladesh, only 6% schools provide education on menstrual hygiene management, which results in low knowledge about menstruation among girls and boys. The menstrual issues were reported to adversely affect the school performance of one-third girls in the country. The growing initiatives taken by government and non-profit organizations to improve these conditions in the developing countries is estimated to result in the substantial growth of sanitary pads market.

The sanitary pads market is anticipated to record a CAGR of around 6% over the forecast period i.e. 2019-2027. The market is segmented by product, by raw material, by distribution channel and by region, out of which, the product segment is further segmented into disposable, reusable and biodegradable. On the basis of product, the biodegradable segment is anticipated to hold the largest share in the sanitary pads market on account of growing environmental concerns over usage of plastic which raises the demand for biodegradable products and results in increase in the production of biodegradable sanitary pads. Non-biodegradable sanitary napkins contain chemicals that are toxic for the body while biodegradable pads are made up of natural materials such as banana fiber and organic cotton which is not harmful or irritable. This is an additional factor which is estimated to support the growth of this segment in the market during the forecast period.
