The soap and bath products industry is comprised of establishments whose primary concern is the manufacturing, distribution, and retailing of soap and other bathing products (such as shower gels, bath salts, bubble bath, bath oils, etc.). Industry consumers are typically focused on the scent and moisturizing capabilities of the product they are considering for purchase. These characteristics are typically heralded as the most influential to potential consumers. In recent times consumers have started to become more aware of the ingredients in soap and bath products.

Demand in the soap and bath product industry is typically driven by the evolving age composition within the general public, as well as consumer income.
