DUBLIN, September 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Global Baby Diapers Market - Strategic Assessment and Forecast 2017-2022" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The global baby diapers market is likely to grow at a CAGR close to 3.7% during the period 2016-2022.

The report "Global Baby Diapers Market - Strategic Assessment and Forecast 2017-2022", considers the present scenario of the global baby diapers market and its strategic assessment for the period 2017-2022. It includes a detailed study of growth drivers, trends, and restraints. The report also profiles the leading vendors in the market and other key vendors.

The demand for baby diapers highly depends on two factors: fertility rates and penetration of the diaper market across geographies. For instance, in Africa, the fertility rate is high, but the market penetration rate is low, hence the sale of diapers in the region is low.

In North America and Europe, the penetration of the diaper market is high, however, over a period of time, the fertility rate has deceased. The global baby diapers market is primarily driven by the high birth rate in the APAC and the Middle-East countries. The cost of disposable diapers is one of the major issue, thus, cloth diapers are preferred over disposable diapers. However, marketers are introducing low-cost disposable diapers to make them affordable to increase their sales. Awareness has a positive impact on the overall demand, and the availability in different types, size, and packs has also helped to increase the market penetration.

In terms of product type, the disposable baby diapers market is likely to remain the dominating segment till 2022 with more than 50% revenue share. Also, offline channels such as supermarket and baby specialty stores still dominate the global baby diapers market, but the online presence is increasing and is expected to grow faster than offline distribution channels.

Manufacturers are introducing baby diapers with less fluff pulp. Also, the introduction of fluff-less diapers and smart diapers (with sensors) is creating new revenue segments for vendors. Further, manufacturers are constantly trying to improve the raw materials to help absorb more urine quickly and keep the baby's skin dry. Hence, the introduction of advanced technology and improved materials and designs in baby diapers is an emerging trend that the market is going to witness during the forecast period.

With the increased number of internet and social media users, many brands are using e-commerce and social media sites as a medium to promote their brands. These vendors provide additional information about baby care to parents and provide an interactive platform to encourage them to discuss problems about child care. This increasing awareness through online social media campaigns is a one of the major factors that is driving the market. Growing penetration of private label diaper brands and declining infant mortality rates are among the major drivers discussed in the report that is going to drive the market. The report outlines the latest trends and factors that are expected to drive the market during the forecast period.

Further, the report provides a detailed study of expected challenges to the market. The cost of disposable diapers is one of the major issues. The volatility in raw materials is another major challenge faced by diaper manufacturers. This report also provides the Porter's five forces analysis along with a description of each force and its impact on the market.
