• Packaging will continue to be key to attracting consumers over the forecast period. Although a recovery in the economy and an improvement in real income is expected, a greater variety of refill options is expected that will be of benefit mainly to plastic pouches.
  • Over the forecast period the increased demand for liquid detergents at the expense of powder detergents will have a significant impact on home care packaging in Argentina. Flexible plastic, which is used in powder detergents, will therefore likely be the worst performing pack type in the forecast period. In contrast, the stronger preference for liquid detergents will likely boost demand for HDPE bottles and PET bottles as well as plastic pouches as an economical alternative.
  • Argentines will continue to replace traditional hand dishwashing products with concentrated hand dishwashing products over the forecast period. This trend will favour PET bottles exclusively since it is the main pack type used in concentrated hand dishwashing. HDPE bottles and other plastic bottles will likely decline as they are used by traditional hand dishwashing brands.
