CHINA BABY DIAPERS MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2025-2032)

China baby diapers market is estimated to be valued at USD 10.94 Bn in 2025, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% from 2025 to 2032. As per estimates from Statista released in December 2025, more than 30 million babies are born in China each year. Due to growing disposable income levels and increasing awareness about baby hygiene products, parents are increasingly preferring the use of disposable diapers. China's one child policy that was relaxed in 2015 allowing every couple to have two children is expected to boost diaper sales in coming years. Factors such as increasing urbanization, nuclear family structure, and rising women workforce participation are supporting the adoption of baby diapers for convenience. Furthermore, initiatives by both international and domestic brands to launch innovative, skin-friendly diaper varieties are strengthening market demand for baby diapers. However, rising raw material prices remain a challenge for manufacturers.

Market Dynamics:

China baby diapers market is driven by factors such as rising birth rate, growing middle class population with higher disposable income, rapid urbanization, increasing awareness about benefits of using baby diapers among parents, and launch of innovative products by key players such as P&G. However, high prices of raw materials including pulp and polyethylene used in diaper production is a major challenge for market players. Stringent government regulations regarding production and marketing of baby care products is also restraining market growth. Opportunities for market expansion lie in introducing sustainable and eco-friendly diaper variants, targeting tier 2 and tier 3 cities, and promoting usage through online retail channels and social media marketing. Key players could also focus on developing biodegradable diapers using plant-based materials to capitalize on the emerging trend of sustainable baby products.
