Executive Summary
Diaper refers to a piece of soft absorbent cloth/underwear that is generally worn by babies aged between
0-3 years who are not yet toilet trained. Diaper is the underwear that allow the user to urinate or defecate
without the use of toilets. There are great variations in diapering practices which reflect cultural standard &
practices and regional differentiation. Diapering habits are mostly influenced by income level, family
practices and cultural standards. Diaper use is considered as standard in most parts of the world. Materials
used in the production of diapers vary globally with disposable diapers being the most common and popular
diaper. Cloth diapers are also in trend but these are mostly preferred in Asian countries like India and China
due to their low cost as compared to disposable diapers.

There are two categories of diapers available in the market namely baby diaper and adult diaper. Adult
diapers are used by adults who are suffering from the problem of urinary incontinence. This is one of the
embarrassing problem adults are facing these days. A number of adult diapers are available in the market
