Article Abstract:
The retail textile washing products market in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg declined by 1.5% in nominal value between 1996 and 1997. This can be attributed to market saturation, the substitution of traditional products by concentrates and the competitive pressure to launch innovative products without corresponding price increases. The market comprises all chemicals used in the cleaning and care of clothes and fabrics, such as detergents, softeners and other products used beyond basic washing and conditioning.
