Segment Analysis
By Type
In 2023, the reusable breast pads segment held a 45% revenue share owing to the growing awareness about the environment and cost-saving advantages. Made from organic cotton, bamboo, or hemp, these pads are chosen for their softness, breathability, and durability for future use. Unlike the disposable variants, reusable pads can be washed and used 50-100 times making them economical as well as eco-friendly. Manufacturers have responded with antibacterial coatings and hypoallergenic fabrics to address skin sensitivity issues. Tight sustainability creeps and consumers prefer a zero-waste product to push up demand in the western markets. However, disposable breast pads are popular in emerging economies, owing to their ease of use and super-absorbent capability. Now top brands are launching biodegradable disposable pads to balance convenience and sustainability. Growth in the segment is also being further accelerated by online parenting groups that are encouraging the use of reusable products where applicable, with many claiming to see skyrocketing sales of handmade organic breast pads on platforms like Amazon and Etsy.
By Distribution Channel
In 2023 the Retail Distribution Channel held the highest market share with primary sales at supermarkets, hypermarkets, and pharmacies. Impulse purchases, in-store promotions, and the ability to check if a product works as intended are often assigned to the success of retailment. Big-name chains such as Walmart, Target, and Boots devote entire sections to maternity, improving visibility. E-commerce is the fastest growing segment, with 35% of millennial mothers preferring to purchase products online, as they offer discretion and doorstep delivery. Amazon, BuyBuy Baby, and specialty maternity retailers offer subscription services for ongoing purchases. Omnichannel strategies that blend online marketplaces with brick-and-mortar mom-and-pop stores are gaining traction in Asia-Pacific. Meanwhile, the emergence of D2C brands (e.g., Kindred Bravely) that sell product through a branded website, add another distribution channel and social media influencers have become a major sales driver online.
