Background:
In all regions, Hand and Body Hygiene inclusive of cleansers and sanitizers, are experiencing a period of rapid expansion given the on-going public health crisis. Consumer, competitive and retailer response has signaled a paradigm shift in the category toward higher going demand and national brand presence (Safeguard, Dove, Suave, Raw Sugar, The Honest Co).
Availability proved to be key to sales growth in the first 3 months of the crisis, manufactures have responded by providing consumers more choices than ever before. Products that are gentle, high efficacy and viewed as safe are driving large consumer adoption. Education on the category is limited, but consumers are engaging at a historically high rate.
Efficacy, removal of harmful material on hands, continues to be the most important job to be done for consumers. The environment has driven consumers to look for products designed to best remove the materials they find most harmful (COVID-19, Viruses, Germs, Bacteria). The ability to communicate this product performance and mode of action capability is critical.
Benefit innovation is being introduced as a vector for growth given the consumer trade-offs for traditional hand hygiene products; skin dryness, smell, feel – especially for those consumers who need to cleanse most frequently. Increased usage frequency has amplified the awareness of these negative elements leading consumers to seek solutions in and outside the category.
The new demands bring manufacturing and technical challenges to resolve for our Global Safeguard franchise including:
An American multinational consumer goods corporation headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio. P&G was founded over 180 years ago as a simple soap and candle company.
