摘要

Menstrual hygiene is of greater concern globally as it entirely depends on individual’s personal choice, socioeconomic status, proximity to resources, education, and cultural beliefs. The global feminine hygiene products market size was valued at USD 43.25 billion in 2024 and the market is anticipated to grow at CAGR of 6.98% from USD 45.56 billion in 2025 to USD 73.07 billion by 2032. Conventional hygiene products contain harsh chemicals, single-use plastics, and unsustainable materials, causing major health and environmental concerns. The proper sanitary waste management have significant constructive impact on both public health and environmental sustainability. There is a need to develop, sustainable, affordable, eco-friendly and biocompatible menstrual hygiene products to create better health for menstruators across the globe and reduce the environmental footprint. This review mainly focusses on the need for eco-friendly circumstantial women hygiene products, its global and Indian scenario market potential status. Categorically reviewing the trends developed in superabsorbent polymers (SAPs), how it excels in water retention properties and antibacterial function, without compromising the physiological compatibility. This report distinctly highlights the merits of synergistic features of Far-Infra Red/anion complex/magnetic particles in feminine hygiene products. Other objectives of the work are to cover importance of integrated sanitary materials-waste management to meet the sustainable development goals by mitigating the waste generation. Overall, the quest of this report is to introduce the need of multi-faceted approach in designing eco-friendly superabsorbent material integrated with functional additives following advanced materials, engineering strategies, facilitating circularity and societal waste management.
