Detergents and laundry aids

Article Abstract:

The UK market for detergents and laundry aids grew by 8% in 1991-95, to 875 million pounds sterling. However, by volume the market declined by 5%, due largely to the emergence of concentrated products. The main growth areas are in the smaller sectors: the value of dishwashing detergents sales rose by 21% during the period, while fabric conditioners rose by 25%. The market is dominated by Lever Brothers and Procter & Gamble: by value, they control 65% of sales of hand washing-up liquids and 86% of sales of fabric washing detergents. There seems little evidence of widespread brand switching.
