Textile washing products: market background: consumer lifestyles: working women & changing attitudes towards cleaning
Article Abstract:
Detergent products in relatively time-consuming formats, such as bars and hand-wash powders, are losing popularity in Europe as a result of changing lifestyles among women in the region. The development was traced to the less amount of time that consumers devote to having their clothes hand-washed due to trends such as more women going to work and spending less time on household chores. Working women also exhibited less patience for cleaning chores that take time, a development that resulted to the emerging consumer value enjoyed by all-in-one textile washing products.
