South Korea Baby Diapers Market to Reach Around USD 536.43 million by 2032, Aided by the growing demand for sustainable diapers to reduce waste.

South Korea Baby Diapers Market

According to a new report by EMR titled, ‘South Korea Baby Diapers Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032’, the market attained a value of about USD 370.43 million in 2023. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% in the forecast period of 2024-2032 to reach a value of around USD 536.43 million by 2032.

In 2023, the fertility rate was 0.72 children per woman in South Korea. The country is witnessing a substantial demand for disposable diapers due to their convenience, urbanisation, and changing lifestyles. Doctor Pia is the one of most trusted diaper brands in South Korea. Some other prominent brands include Huggies, Bosomi, and Soom N Soom.

 

The South Korea baby diapers market growth can be attributed to a rise in environmental consciousness, fuelling the adoption of cloth diapers. Benefits such as sustainability, reusability, and washability, among others, are boosting the appeal of cloth diapers among parents. Besides, the availability of these diapers in diverse styles, designs, and materials is adding to the market expansion.

 

New product launches with advanced features support the baby diaper market in South Korea. In April 2024, P&G Korea (NYSE: PG) launched two baby diapers, particularly designed for the summer season. These products feature the company's patented cool care system, which is ideal for the sweltering summers in this country. In comparison to other Pampers products, the cool care technology helps lower heat by 1 degree Celsius.

 

The Touch of Nature Summer Pants and the Pampers Air Cha Cha Summer Pants stay soft and dry for up to 12 hours, keeping newborns from feeling uncomfortable due to moisture within their diapers. The primary goal of the Air Cha Cha Summer Pants is to maximise air permeability. Due to the product’s 20,000 air holes, the diaper’s interior air circulation is accelerated. With a softer texture, the Touch of Nature Summer Pants are made of the finest cotton, and their skin has undergone dermatological testing.
