US demand to rise 4.5% annually through 2014
Demand for wipes, both consumer and industrial, is forecast to increase 4.5 percent per annum to $2.3 billion in 2014. Wipes will continue to benefit from features such as ease-of-use, disposability, portability, and reduced risk of crosscontamination. Nevertheless, growth will decelerate from rates achieved during the 2004 to 2009 period due to increasing market maturity and a shift in preferences to more environmentally friendly consumer goods and cleaning methods. In response to the “green” trend, wipes manufacturers will continue to develop more environmentally friendly products, such as those that are biodegradable.
Hand, body wipes to further penetrate consumer market
Convenience, consumer acceptance and innovation will remain driving forces in the consumer market, with household cleaning, hand and body, and a number of other, small volume consumer wipes projected to register the strongest gains. Growth in household care wipes, such as general purpose disinfectant wipes, will be propelled by the appeal of one-step, disposable wipes that provide a quick and convenient format for household cleaning chores. These wipes also offer a fast and easy cleaning alternative for consumers with little free time. Hand and body wipes, such as bathroom hygiene and general purpose bathing, will enjoy increased market penetration. For example, the concept of wet bathroom tissue as part of a standard bathroom routine is gaining acceptance. General purpose bathing wipes are also gaining acceptance among individuals who are bedridden or find it difficult to enter and exit a bathtub. Nevertheless, baby wipes will remain the top selling type of consumer wipe. Demand for baby wipes will continue to suffer due to market maturity, as well as continued replacement by newer, task-specific wipes in non-diaper applications, where baby wipes once enjoyed considerable popularity.
Manufacturing, health care wipes to remain largest industrial wipes segments
After suffering from slower sales during the recession that began in December 2007, the industrial wipes market will benefit from a rebound in manufacturing activity through 2014. As such, wipes geared towards the manufacturing market are projected to achieve the most rapid gains through the forecast period. In addition to a more favorable economic climate, demand for industrial wipes will benefit from new product innovations and expanding applications. Among industrial wipes, manufacturing and health care types will remain the largest segments, with special purpose products such as clean room and surface preparation wipes and personal bathing wipes projected to see the fastest growth.
Surfactants to see fastest gains in chemical materials
Advances for the chemicals that saturate or are deposited into wipes will derive from the increasing diversity of chemical formulations adapted to a wipes format as companies seek to take advantage of the strong consumer interest generated by these convenient, and relatively new, products. Surfactants will experience the fastest gains, resulting from an ongoing shift away from solvent formulations.Furthermore, surfactants offering biocidal properties will drive overall value gains due to increasing concerns regarding bacterial contamination in industrial and consumer applications.
Study coverage
Details on these and other key findings are available in Wipes, a new Freedonia industry study priced at $4900. It presents historical demand data (1999, 2004 and 2009) plus forecasts for 2014 and 2019 by market and raw material. In addition, the study considers market environment factors, evaluates company market share data and profiles 35 industry competitors, including Kimberly-Clark, Nice-Pak and Procter & Gamble.

Global Pharmaceutical Market Forecast to 2012
The pharmaceutical market worldwide, after having experienced exponential growth over the past few years, is now witnessing a slump. This decline in global pharma market is largely attributed to the patent expiry of key blockbusters together with saturation in key pharma markets such as the US and Western Europe. Meanwhile, pharma markets in some developing regions like Asia and Latin America have been continuously witnessing robust growth rate in last few years on account of increasing prevalence of diseases, rising healthcare spending and increasing affordability. Overall, these markets enjoy good growth potential in coming few years.
According to our latest research “Global Pharmaceutical Market Forecast to 2012”, global pharma industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 6% during 2010-2012. The growth will be driven by low cost factor, increasing prevalence of diseases worldwide and rising per capita income of consumers. Our research identifies that sales of generic drugs will emerge as the most prominent segment of the pharma market over the forecast period, indicating large opportunities for generics manufacturers to tap.
Our regional level analysis finds that the pharma industry is growing at a rapid rate in the emerging countries like India, China, Brazil, Russia, among others, while a slowdown in the growth has been encountered in the US and Western European countries. Besides this, we have found that growing inorganically via means of Mergers & Acquisitions has emerged as the most viable way for the companies to expand/extend their reach at a faster rate and maintain their revenues. We anticipate this trend to continue in near future also.
“Global Pharmaceutical Market Forecast to 2012” provides a comprehensive analysis of every major pharmaceutical market worldwide. North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Africa have been selected as the most important regions to be presented in this report. The report contains statistical and analytical information on each of these markets, covering their current market size, demand and healthcare statistics. It also features analysis of future directions, supplemented with facts and figures.

Emerging Pharmaceutical Markets Globally
The growth in pharma markets in emerging countries has outpaced the overall growth of the global pharma market. The growth in these markets is being driven by rapidly growing economies of these countries, increasing per capita income, increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases, and low-cost factors. In 2008, pharma market in E7 countries (Brazil, Russia, China, India, Turkey, Mexico and Indonesia) was estimated at around US$ 96 Billion, and it is expected that high growth in these markets will help these countries increase their share in global pharma market.
According to our new research study on the sector titled “Emerging Pharmaceutical Markets Globally”, the pharmaceutical market in the abovementioned emerging countries is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 14.7% during 2009-2012. Currently, these markets are characterized by rapid urbanization, which has led to the growth in prevalence of lifestyle diseases.
Our report has found that China has the largest pharma market out of these seven countries, followed by Brazil, Mexico and India. However, the maximum growth in future is expected to be in Russia and China due to strong government support. Besides, we have identified that most of the E7 pharmaceutical markets are still dominated by acute therapies, but the growth rate of chronic therapies far exceeds that of acute therapies. Thus, the therapy mix of the market in the next few years will be much different from what it is today.
The research study provides extensive and coherent information about pharma markets in emerging countries. It highlights several emerging opportunities growing in line with development of pharma markets in E7 countries. The research study gives detailed statistical and analytical review on demographics, macroeconomic indicators, disease profile, key drivers and restraints. It contains all the key details that will help clients to draw up market strategies and assess opportunity areas for their success in these emerging pharma markets.

Healthcare Industry in United States
Health care in the United States is provided by many separate legal entities. Current estimates put US healthcare spending at approximately 15% of GDP, which is the highest in the world. The United States spends the highest percentage of health care costs on pharmaceuticals in the world. The health share of gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to hold steady in 2006 before resuming its historical upward trend, reaching 19.6 percent of GDP by 2016. In the United States, around 85% of citizens have health insurance, either through their employer or purchased individually.
The federal government does not guarantee universal health care to all its citizens, but certain publicly-funded health care programs help to provide for some of the elderly, disabled, and the poor and federal law ensures public access to emergency services regardless of ability to pay. Those without health insurance coverage are expected to pay privately for medical services. Health insurance is expensive and medical bills are overwhelmingly the most common reason for personal bankruptcy in the United States.
This report from Aruvian's R'search on the Healthcare Industry in United States looks at the overall industry, starting with the basic market analysis, and leading on to analyzing the major issues facing the industry today. The report contains two Michael Porter’s Five Forces Analysis, and an industry analysis through the PEST framework. A look at the major players, growth drivers, the issue of GPOs in the healthcare industry, outsourcing trends, role of IT in the industry, and a lot more factors are looked at in this report.

Healthcare Industry in United States
Health care in the United States is provided by many separate legal entities. Current estimates put US healthcare spending at approximately 15% of GDP, which is the highest in the world. The United States spends the highest percentage of health care costs on pharmaceuticals in the world. The health share of gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to hold steady in 2006 before resuming its historical upward trend, reaching 19.6 percent of GDP by 2016. In the United States, around 85% of citizens have health insurance, either through their employer or purchased individually.
The federal government does not guarantee universal health care to all its citizens, but certain publicly-funded health care programs help to provide for some of the elderly, disabled, and the poor and federal law ensures public access to emergency services regardless of ability to pay. Those without health insurance coverage are expected to pay privately for medical services. Health insurance is expensive and medical bills are overwhelmingly the most common reason for personal bankruptcy in the United States.
This report from Aruvian's R'search on the Healthcare Industry in United States looks at the overall industry, starting with the basic market analysis, and leading on to analyzing the major issues facing the industry today. The report contains two Michael Porter’s Five Forces Analysis, and an industry analysis through the PEST framework. A look at the major players, growth drivers, the issue of GPOs in the healthcare industry, outsourcing trends, role of IT in the industry, and a lot more factors are looked at in this report.

Analyzing the Global Pharmaceutical Industry
The birth origins of the Pharmaceutical Industry can be traced back to more humble antecedents than just chemistry labs. The earliest incidents of recognition of the antiseptic properties of the dyestuffs is around the late 19th century. The invention of penicillin can yet be recognized as a major milestone for the emergent industry which firmly consolidated its R&D efforts in the 1950’s. Further in the 1960’s the patent regulation support gave a further impetus to the industry in new discoveries and relaxed controls on clinical development with the booming spend on healthcare as economies boomed globally.
The global presence of the pharmaceutical industry is evident with the roll out of continent specific R&D programs and drugs which help companies maximize penetration of markets and garner increased revenues with inter continental treatment demand of patients being serviced from often one or two mega research centers in the continent.
By contribution of size, the pharmaceutical industry is majorly dominant at the US, Europe and Japan. Led by these markets, the total world consumption in sales of pharmaceutical products has displayed strong growth and is expected to grow further with expanding populations in emerging markets.
The marketing aggressiveness of US-based companies has placed them at the top of the pile, being followed closely by the European sector. Countries like the UK, France and Denmark each have at least two pharmaceutical companies in their respective ten largest corporate enterprises.
Aruvian's R'search’s report – Analyzing the Global Pharmaceutical Industry - presents a complete analysis of the global pharmaceutical industry by setting up a industry demarcation and providing a study on marketing dynamic of the industry like segments active in the industry , competitive activity and the overall market outlook.
The role played by the OTC pharmaceuticals in the global pharma industry is also explained in detail in the report with the intense marketing efforts prevalent in the industry in order to push the inclusion of OTC pharmaceuticals into the buy – store segment of home segments. The often competed and hotly contested area of Generics with the rapid proliferative competition from the low cost suppliers in the emerging markets is also explained in this report with the forecast for the industry which looks upbeat.
The R&D initiatives practiced by the industry, which are often used to ward off competition as well as developing new alliances, are explained as a major thrust area powering the industry growth in this report. The report presents an invaluable input in the form of analyzing the drug development and lifecycle of a drug from discovery to discontinuation and the kind of R&D costs which are involved in developing that drug. The crucial supportive role of the patent system which energizes innovation in the industry and further efforts on genomics is also elaborated in the report.
The need for corporate social responsibility in the pharma sector which serves as a safeguard for ensuring socially ethical drug development is also provided in this report. The report delves deeper into the pricing questions that always face any global pharmaceutical company wherein the constant tug between reasonability and deriving product costs in conjunction with the objectives of the respective country’s government. The report also throws light on the issues faced by pharmaceutical majors in the developing countries wherein the effects of TRIPS and the pricing of medicines are constantly on the resolution agendas of these companies.
The TRIPS agreement has been a point of debate in the globally wherein the issues are equally contested for the developing as well as the developed countries and the options of flexibility which have inculcated in the report are explained in this report.
The report takes a critical view on the irresponsible drug promotion and advertising practiced by some pharma companies in this majorly ethical business and the issue of protecting IPR’s in the global marketplace.
An interesting phenomenon explained in this report is the practice of “offshoring” amongst the pharma companies and the value chains which have been developed to service them globally along with which the report presents a country wise analysis of the pharmaceutical markets spread globally and their respective industry dynamics which includes a profiling of the major global industry players.

Conference on Clinical Trials Asia Summit 2010
Clinical trials in India are finally becoming transparent. There has been a dramatic increase in the number of trials that have got officially registered in Clinical Trials Registry-India (CTRI). According to records collected by the Indian Council of Medical Research and the Drug Controller General's office, between July-December 2007, only 11 trials were registered. The number increased to 137 between Jan-Dec 2008 and then to an all-time high of 546 between Jan-Dec 2009. This year, while January saw 58 trials registered, February recorded 60. India has all the competitive advantages for conducting clinical trials. As the country is increasingly becoming a favoured destination for clinical trials, a gap analysis needs to be done to scale up all resources for clinical trials. This scale up is essential for India to cope with the large global clinical trial projects. It is no coincidence over the last decade or more of economic liberalization, and years of unprecedented growth, that India and parts of South Asia are becoming a preferred clinical research destination for multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology corporations.
CTAS 2010 will examine the current issues faced in clinical trials operations, addressing the risks, timeline and budget stipulations, while effectively tackling key challenges in overcoming trials agreement and site contract arbitration problems. This summit will discuss the operational element of trial site management, strategic partnership with CROs and SMOs, patient, talent & investigators management in order to improve & optimise the overall drug development effectiveness and ROI. Discover on how to implement and benefit from electronic data management & monitoring cost effectively.
