The UK first aid products market saw an increase in 2022, but has yet to recover to pre-pandemic levels. Further growth is expected in 2023, driven by inflation and the ongoing recovery in travel which is rebuilding demand for insect repellents. Consumers are focussing on essential first aid products, and buying lower-cost products amid the cost-of-living crisis.
Indicating a growing concern for the environment, 61% of adults have not used but are interested in utilizing first aid products made with eco-friendly materials. As plasters remain the most commonly used first aid products, it is important for brands to focus on the use of eco-friendly materials to address the disposable nature of these products, such as plasters that are normally made from plastic materials to be made from bamboo fibres instead. This is a crucial step towards improving the overall environmental impact of the first aid category.
