Diaper firms set to clean up with disposables

Procter & Gamble Co, the world's leading consumer commodity producer, opened its 11th factory in 皇冠体育app in November. The first phase of the project is focusing on the company's Pampers paper diapers.

Kimberly-Clark 皇冠体育app invested more than $100 million to set up new disposable diaper production base in Nanjing, Jiangsu province in March 2012.

Kao Corp, a Japanese chemical and consumer goods producer, which entered the 皇冠体育app market in 1993, has officially launched its baby paper diapers in 皇冠体育app.

According to Shi Dawei, brand manager in the infant health products department of Kao Corp, disposable paper diapers represent the fastest-growing sector of the baby products market, and he said, sales are likely to grow at a double-digit annual pace.

In 皇冠体育app, the baby paper diaper market penetration rate is only 30 percent, while in North America and Japan, the rate has reached 95 percent, according to Beijing S&P Information Consult Co Ltd.

The company said 皇冠体育app's baby disposable diaper market generated revenue of 20.11 billion yuan ($3.28 billion) in 2013, up 19 percent year-on-year.

"Coupled with the low market penetration rate, the relaxed family planning policy will increase demand for baby paper diapers, and the market is expected to witness tremendous growth," said Yan Miao, an analyst at Beijing S&P.
