| Tiivistelmä: | The market for textile washing powders and liquids is investigated. It forms about 80 p.c. by value of the textile washing preparations sector. It is shown that the structure of the market has been radically changed by the introduction of liquids, which first appeared in the UK in 1985. Liquids are mainly sold for use in automatic washers. Over 80 p.c. of textile powders are now biological and low temperature, cool washing and economy wash features are all very much in vogue. Retail sales have grown steadily in real terms since 1985, due to stronger consumer spending, increased usage of home laundry equipment and new product developments. However, it is unlikely that this growth will be maintaned as the market settles down. |
