Global Disposable Incontinence Products Market - 2023-2030

Global Disposable Incontinence Products Market - 2023-2030


Global Disposable Incontinence Products Market reached US$ XX billion in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ XX million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period 2023-2030.

Incontinence is the inability to control the evacuative urination or defecation functions of the body. Urine and excrement are absorbed and sealed away by single-use disposable incontinence products, preventing leaks and maintaining the user's skin dryness and health.

Several different types of urinary incontinence exist, including stress urinary incontinence, urge urinary incontinence, functional incontinence, mixed incontinence, and overflow incontinence. Incontinence can be caused by a minor condition, such as infection, or a more severe condition such as a neurological disorder or diabetes.

Market Dynamics

Increasing product launches

The increasing product launches act as a significant driver for market growth. Losing weight can improve bladder function and lessen urinary incontinence symptoms. The common incontinence products are absorbent pads that are worn inside underwear to soak up urine. Pads and pull-up pants are widely used among old adults.

For instance, in May 2023, adult diaper brand, Friends launched its first extra-thin Absorbent Disposable Underpant called UltraThinz. It is intended especially for younger users with light incontinence brought on by ailments like obesity, prostate problems, and postpartum incontinence.

Also, in April 2022, First Quality Products, Inc. introduced a new technology for bladder control pads called MaxSorbTM+ Zone that provides enhanced rapid absorption to help keep skin dry all day and support skin health.

Furthermore, significant growth drivers such as rising demand for usage in neutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries, and technological advancements are expected to drive the market in the forecast period.

Discomfort and hesitation in wearing incontinence care products

Discomfort, stress, and embarrassment in wearing incontinence products in social gatherings are major concerns for incontinence patients. Hence, the acceptance level of incontinence care products is quite low, especially among men. According to the SCA group, only 20% of all men with incontinence use care products available in the market.

Segment Analysis

The global disposable incontinence products market is segmented based on product type, material type, distribution channel and region.

The protective garments segment accounted for approximately 52.1% of the market share

The protective garments segment is expected to hold the largest market share over the period forecast. Adult diapers are used for both urinary incontinence and fecal incontinence. Some adult diaper products include all-in-one cloth diapers, contoured cloth diapers, prefold adult cloth diapers, disposable underwear, and adult underwear. Adult diapers are available in different types based on materials and absorbency required.

For instance, in September 2022, Attindas Hygiene Partners introduced a new disposable and invisible incontinence underwear product for men and women. This product has Maxi Comfort ultrasonic bonding technology for a more elastic material that conforms to a range of body shapes. Hence, due to the above factors, the segment is expected to hold the largest market share.

Geographical Analysis

North America is expected to hold a significant position in the global disposable incontinence products market share

The global disposable incontinence products market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, Middle East, and Africa.

North America has maintained a significant market proportion due to factors such as the rising prevalence of urinary incontinence, product launches, and increasing healthcare expenditure, this trend is anticipated to continue throughout the forecast period.

For instance, in May 2021, Kimberly-Clark’s Poise brand introduced One by Poise, a 2 in 1 uniquely designed pad and liner that provides protection for period weeks as well as bladder leaks.

Additionally, according to the National Institute of Health Report 2023, urinary incontinence affects about 13 million people in the United States. At least 50% of nursing home residents have the condition. According to carers, 53% of elderly people who are housebound are incontinent. According to a random sample of senior hospital patients, 23% of individuals had recurrent urine incontinence by discharge, compared to 11% upon admission.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global disposable incontinence products market. The onset of the pandemic in early 2020 led to widespread lockdowns and restrictions, impacting regular diagnoses, treatment, product launches, and consultations worldwide.

With the outbreak of the pandemic, many pharmaceutical or medical device manufacturing units faced labor shortages and were unable to travel to work due to lockdown restrictions. Therefore, owing to the above factors, the disposable incontinence products market is expected to be moderately affected over the forecast period.
