4. 4. Executive Summary Superabsorbent Polymer or SAP, a granular material
that has the capability to absorb large amount of water or aqueous
solution, is witnessing higher rate of growth because of its growing usage
in the personal disposable products like baby diapers, female hygiene and
adult incontinence products. Also, because of its capability to absorb
water or aqueous solution up to 50 times of its own weight, SAP is also
finding wide variety of usage in agriculture, construction, entertainment
and personal care industry as well. Growing urbanization, rising consumer
expenditure and disposable income in developing countries along with the
growing population of both adults and infants in developed and emerging
countries have played a crucial role in driving and expanding the supply
and demand of superabsorbent polymer across the world. In addition,
technological advancement has facilitated the usage of superabsorbent
polymer to many other end-market applications. Diaper market is the
largest end market application for superabsorbent polymer and hence
driving the demand of the polymer in the recent years. Every year almost
80% of the SAP production is dedicated to the manufacturing of diapers
worldwide. Besides baby diapers which are witnessing sustained growth,
demand for adult diapers is increasing at a higher rate because of the
growing number of cases of adult incontinence. On a global basis, current
market scale and growth rates suggest that diapers will remain a bigger
business for superabsorbent polymer manufacturers.
