Biodegradable Sanitary Napkins Market Analysis:

The increasing awareness about environmental pollution and the harmful effects of non-biodegradable materials like plastics has led to a growing demand for eco-friendly alternatives. Biodegradable sanitary napkins are seen as a more sustainable option, as they break down naturally after disposal, reducing the burden on landfills and the environment. Besides, consumers are becoming more conscious of the ingredients and materials used in the products they buy, including menstrual hygiene products. Biodegradable sanitary napkins are often made from natural and organic materials such as bamboo, cotton, or biodegradable polymers, which appeal to consumers looking for safer and more natural alternatives.

Biodegradable Sanitary Napkins Market Trends:

Increasing Environmental Concerns

Consumers are becoming more aware of the environmental impact of traditional sanitary napkins produced from non-biodegradable materials that disintegrate over hundreds of years, causing pollution and health problems. As a result, there is a growing demand for biodegradable sanitary napkins made from natural and renewable materials that are healthy for both the environment and human health. This trend has been fueled by an increasing number of efforts and campaigns highlighting the necessity of sustainable living and reducing plastic litter. The United Nations, for example, established the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to encourage long-term economic progress, social inclusion, and environmental conservation. SDG 12 asks for sustainable consumption and production patterns, encouraging customers to choose eco-friendly products.

Rising Health Concerns

Conventional sanitary napkins are made from synthetic fibers and plastic materials, which impact the human body severely, causing rashes, allergies, birth defects, and cervical cancer. These contain 90% plastic, which is either burned or disposed of in landfills, water bodies, sewer systems, and fields, hence contaminating the environment. As per RESEARCHGATE, building a biodegradable, skin-friendly solution using organic products like bamboo, corn, sugarcane, and waste management of menstrual products via recycling devices contributes to the safety of users of the product as well as keeping the environment from getting adversely affected. According to National Library of Medicine South Korean media outlets reported a few newly marketed brands of commercial sanitary pads containing VOCs with a high degree of suspicion that these chemicals might be the causes of menstrual irregularities as some of the consumers experienced after using the particular branded pads. Soon, the issue became a societal concern after the public became aware that sanitary pads in direct contact with the skin around the external genitalia were likely causing menstrual irregularities. Hence nowadays women prefer biodegradable and toxin-free hygiene products.

Latest Industry News:

The market is also being driven by increasing product launches:

• In June 2023, Niine Sanitary Napkins, India's leading provider of premium and affordable hygiene solutions, launched the country's first PLA-based biodegradable sanitary pads. These pads are CIPET-certified, with more than 90% of the pad decomposing within 175 days and the rest within a year. The entire packaging, including the outer cover and disposable bags, is biodegradable. They offer exceptional performance in absorption, comfort, and leakage protection, comparable to regular sanitary pads. Moreover, these pads are 100% chemical-free and vegan.
