Tissue and hygiene in 2024: The big picture
In 2024, sales of tissue and hygiene in Denmark experienced a slight decline in retail value, while retail volume fell in categories such as menstrual care, retail adult incontinence, and nappies/diapers/pants.
2024 key trends
Retail hygiene remained the largest category in retail value terms in 2024, despite experiencing a decline in value growth. The sector continues to benefit from solid value sales in nappies/diapers/pants and sanitary protection, both of which are essential items for consumers.
Competitive landscape
Essity S/A maintained its leadership in the tissue and hygiene sector in 2024, recording a slight increase in value share. The company's strong market position is bolstered by its leading brands such as Libero, Libresse, Lotus, and Tena, which are known for their reliability and innovation.
Retail developments
Discounters emerged as the leading distribution channel within tissue and hygiene overall in 2024, recording an improvement in its value share during the year. The continued leadership can be attributed to the vast extent of its outlet networks, which ensure high penetration and market reach.
What next for tissue and hygiene?
Sales of tissue and hygiene are expected to rise over the forecast period, with positive retail value growth anticipated. Key drivers of this growth include population expansion, an increase in both the total number of households and urban households specifically, along with the continued ageing of the population and rising obesity rates.
