OUR RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
New developments in the textile industry have enabled manufacturers to produce higher-quality fabrics that do not require dry-cleaning - what impact will this have on the dry-cleaning market? What are the advantages of dry-cleaning services in supermarket locations? With changing consumer lifestyles and the need for convenience in society - has dry-cleaning become an industry that is essentially needs-driven? This report looks at the UK market for dry-cleaning and assesses the changes that have occurred since Mintel last reported on this subject in Market Intelligence, February 1998. This report examines the hypothesis that changing consumer lifestyles and developments within the textile industry and in-home laundry technology mean that the market for traditional dry-cleaning outlets will continue to stagnate. Companies operating within the sector must consider new methods of service, and distribution of those services, to maintain share in what may become a negative growth market. Other Mintel reports of relevance include: - Clothes Washing Detergents and Laundry Aids, Market Intelligence, January 2000 - Laundry and Dishwasher Appliances, Market Intelligence, January 1999 - Dishwashing Detergents, Market Intelligence, February 2001.
