What you need to know
Chinese consumers continue to be actively engaged in household cleaning, and show positive attitudes towards it. With the help of effective household cleaners and innovative cleaning tools, cleaning the house is no longer a tedious and exhausting chore, but has some emotional benefits besides maintaining a healthy living environment. This spells good news for brands in the household cleaning market to change the image of the category as ‘low-engagement’ commodities, by reacting to changes in modern consumers’ lifestyles and providing extra health benefits beyond cleaning.
