An adult diaper is a disposable undergarment worn by individuals suffering from medical conditions, such as dementia, mobility impairment, incontinence and diarrhea. It is commonly available in the pad, flat and pant-based variants. Adult diapers are manufactured using breathable fabrics, super-absorbent chemicals and polyethylene films. The core lining of the product contains cellulose fluff pulp, sodium polyacrylate and polyacrylate granules. They aid in absorbing large volumes of fluids, eliminating odor and preventing cloth stains caused by bladder leaks. In comparison to baby diapers, adult diapers are more convenient and comfortable to wear, available in various sizes and have higher absorbing capacities.
The GCC adult diaper market is primarily being driven by the rising concerns regarding personal hygiene among the masses. Consumers are increasingly adopting adult incontinence products, such as briefs, disposable underwear, liners, under pads, and bariatric diapers, to prevent leakage and minimize the risks of infections. Moreover, the launch of innovative products to manage the growing incidence of adult incontinence is positively impacting the market growth. Product manufacturers are developing adult diapers with micro disposable hook fasteners and hypoallergenic materials to prevent skin rashes. In line with this, the introduction of diapers with non-chlorine, latex- and dye-free raw material that are also biodegradable and sustainable is favoring the market growth. Other factors, including the widespread adoption of disposable diapers, increasing geriatric population and rising expenditure capacities of the consumers, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth across the region.
