Abstract
The global adult diaper market size reached US$ 19.4 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 34.2 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3% during 2024-2032.
An adult diaper, also known as adult nappy, is a type of underwear worn by adults so as to urinate or defecate without using a toilet. It absorbs or contains the waste and prevents soiling of the outer clothing. The inner lining that touches the skin is generally made of polypropylene, whereas the outer lining is made of polyethylene. Some manufacturers enhance the quality of the inner lining with vitamin E, aloe vera and other skin-friendly compounds. These diapers can be indispensable for adults with conditions like mobility impairment, incontinence or severe diarrhea.
Global Adult Diaper Industry Drivers/Constraints:
As a result of the growing prevalence of urinary incontinence amongst the geriatric population, the demand for adult diapers has increased, particularly for products with improved fluid absorption and retention capacities.
The rising hygiene consciousness among the consumers has created a positive impact on the demand for adult diapers. The market is also experiencing a high growth in the developing regions on account of increasing awareness and easy product availability.
Due to technological advancements, multiple adult diaper variants have been introduced in the market which are thinner and more comfortable with enhanced skin friendliness and odor control. This is expected to create a positive impact on the growth of the global adult diaper industry.
The use of harmful chemicals in diapers can cause the skin to become red, sore, tender and irritated. This represents one of the major factors which can restrain the market growth across the globe.
Adult Pad Type Diaper
Adult Flat Type Diaper
Adult Pant Type Diaper
On the basis of type, adult pad type diaper is the most popular product as it can be worn inside regular underwear to catch leaks and absorb moisture without irritating the skin.
Breakup by Distribution Channel:
Pharmacies

On a geographical front, North America enjoys the leading position in the global adult diaper market.
