Incontinence in the US - New Study Released

From: Fast Market Research, Inc.
Published: Tue Apr 14 2015


Growth in light incontinence sales is motivated by a shift in the cultural attitude towards such products, with advertising campaigns and medical initiatives aim to eliminate the stigma regarding incontinence. Female consumers who were embarrassed to buy incontinence products have tended to turn to sanitary towels as an alternative. As the stigma around these products continues to disappear, light incontinence sales will increase, as consumers turn away from substituting sanitary towels out of embarrassment.

Competitive Landscape

In 2014, Procter & Gamble entered the incontinence category. The company chose to enter the category with products branded under Always, a name previously exclusive to women’s sanitary products. Always currently holds about 55% of the sanitary towels category, and Always incontinence products are also marketed exclusively towards women. Producing incontinence products made exclusively for women under the brand name Always was a smart choice on the part of Procter & Gamble. The brand name is already widely trusted by women, as demonstrated by its leading position in sanitary towels, and the longer life expectancy of women means that the market for incontinence products for women is greater than that for men.
