DUBLIN, April 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Adult Incontinence Products Market Size, Segments, Outlook, and Revenue Forecast 2022-2028 by Product Type, End-Users, Application, and Region" report has been added to  ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to publisher estimates, the Global Adult Incontinence Products Market - which grew from approximately US$ 7 Billion in 2017 to approximately US$ 10 billion in 2022 - is forecasted to grow further into approximately US$ 15 Billion opportunities by 2028, owing to the growing diseases like diabetes, urinary, surgery, prostate.

Urinary incontinence (UI) is one of the major driving factors of the adult incontinence products market. UI is the accidental loss of urine. UI condition can occur at any age, but it is more common in women over the age of 50. Urgency incontinence, stress incontinence, functional incontinence, and overflow incontinence are a few types of UI.

According to National Association for Continence, over 25 million adult Americans experience temporary or chronic urinary incontinence. UI can be a temporary condition that results from an underlying medical condition. It can range from the discomfort of slight loss of urine to severe, continuous wetting.

Low awareness and social stigma about the usage of incontinence products, are likely to restrain the market growth. Furthermore, adult diapers can cause rashes, allergies, and infections, which can reduce their usage. Adult diapers get dirty and smelly when they absorb perspiration and other fluids such as urine retaining moisture, and wetness, potentially causing diaper rashes and bacterial infections.

COVID-19 has helped in the growth of the adult incontinence products market. Since the start of the pandemic, awareness regarding health and medical condition is surging, which helped the adult incontinence products market to accelerate. As the pandemic is slowing down, it is estimated that the adult incontinence products market remains significant in the forecasted period, owing to the growing urine, and bladder-related cases worldwide.

Scope of the Report

The adult incontinence products market is segmented by product type, end-users, and distribution channel. In addition, the report also covers market size and forecasts for the four regions in the adult incontinence products market.

Key Trends by Market Segment

By Product Type: Diapers segment held the largest market share of the global adult incontinence products market in 2021, owing to its extensive usage in urine conditions.

Rising prevalence of incontinence and the surging geriatric population worldwide, are likely to fuel the demand for diapers in the forecasted period.

According to World Health Organization, by 2050, the number of people aged 65 or more is forecasted to increase by 1.5 billion, equivalent to 16% of the world's population. The increasing elderly population is likely to benefit the diaper segment.

By End-Users: Women segment accounted for the largest market share in 2021, owing to the higher number of healthcare conditions.

Most common forms of incontinence in women are stress and urge. According to Lifree, a leading adult incontinence product manufacturer, ~58% of females suffer from the problem of stress incontinence.

As per the National Library of Medicine, it is estimated that the number of women in the United States with urinary incontinence will rise from 18.3 million in 2010 to 28.4 million in 2050.

By Distribution Channel: The pharmacy & drug store segment held the largest market in 2021, owing to growing sales and customer retail network.

Pharmacy store is a shop or hospital dispensary where medical drugs are prepared or sold. The store provides prescription drugs, along with other products.

Increasing healthcare infrastructure, is likely to increase the number of newer pharmacies & drug stores worldwide, which will further increase the demand for adult incontinence products.

By Geography: North America accounted for the largest market share within the global adult incontinence products market in 2021, owing to the rising geriatric population, and surging government initiatives and programs towards the medical sector.

The rising geriatric population and surging diabetes and urinary diseases in the region, are likely to fuel the demand in the adult incontinence products market.

Presence of leading companies operating in adult incontinence products, like Kimberly-Clark, Medline Industries, First Quality Enterprises, and others, will catalyze the expansion of this market.
