| Abstract: | This survey examines the retail market for disposable paper products in France, Italy, the UK, Germany, Spain and Benelux under the period 1993-1997 for current data and 1997-2002 for the future outlook. The global disposable paper products market is characterised as rapidly reaching maturity with static volumes, and adding value offers one of the few opportunities for manufacturers to stimulate value growth. Demographics have a significant impact on the disposable paper products market. Raw material price fluctuations frequently impact the market with prices reaching an all-time low in 1996. Product improvements have focused on comfort, greater absorbency and discretion. |
