In order to gather both qualitative and quantitative insights, supply-side and demand-side stakeholders were interviewed during the primary research process. CEOs, VPs of Product Development, R&D directors, regulatory affairs managers, and commercial directors from makers of adult diapers, OEMs of absorbent hygiene products, and suppliers of raw materials were examples of supply-side sources. Geriatric care specialists, rehabilitation therapists, procurement managers from hospitals and long-term care institutions, retail category managers from pharmacies and supermarkets, and caregivers from home healthcare organizations were examples of demand-side sources. Primary research provided information on consumer adoption patterns, pricing strategies, distribution channel dynamics, and reimbursement systems. It also verified timescales for sustainability initiatives and validated market segmentation across product categories and materials.
