Analyst Opinion

Toilet paper is an essential consumer product and the demand for it remains steady, despite the economic and health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The toilet paper market has experienced a significant increase in demand since the start of the pandemic, as consumers stockpiled the product in response to fears of shortages.

In the coming years, the toilet paper market is expected to grow at a moderate pace, driven by rising populations and urbanization in developing countries. The increasing demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable products is expected to drive the demand for recycled toilet paper, which is a relatively untapped market. Additionally, the growing popularity of e-commerce platforms for grocery shopping is expected to increase the sales of toilet paper through online channels. Moreover, the increasing focus on hygiene and cleanliness is expected to drive the demand for high-quality toilet paper, which has a soft texture, high absorbency, and is free from harsh chemicals. This will open up opportunities for premium toilet paper brands to capture market share from budget-oriented brands.

The toilet paper market is expected to experience steady growth in the coming years, driven by the increasing demand for sustainable and premium products, as well as the growth of e-commerce channels. However, companies need to be aware of consumer preferences and adjust their strategies accordingly, to remain competitive in the market.
