    Customer preferences:
    Consumers in Eastern Europe are increasingly prioritizing eco-friendly and biodegradable cleaning products, reflecting a growing awareness of environmental issues. This trend is further fueled by younger demographics who are more inclined to support brands with sustainable practices. Additionally, busy lifestyles are driving demand for multi-functional products that save time and effort, such as stain removers that work in cold water. The emphasis on hygiene, particularly post-pandemic, has led to a surge in popularity for disinfecting and antibacterial solutions, shaping purchasing decisions in the Home & Laundry Care market.

    Trends in the market:
    In Eastern Europe, the Home & Laundry Care market is experiencing a significant shift towards eco-friendly and biodegradable cleaning products, driven by an increased consumer awareness of environmental sustainability. Younger generations are leading this trend, favoring brands that demonstrate genuine commitment to sustainable practices. Concurrently, the demand for multi-functional cleaning solutions is on the rise, as busy lifestyles push consumers to seek products that save time and effort. Additionally, the heightened focus on hygiene in the wake of the pandemic has intensified interest in disinfecting and antibacterial products, influencing purchasing decisions across the region.
