that consumers seek to need almost on a daily routine. Among the household
cleaning activities, laundry has the record of highest importance with several
studies showing over 65% of the global population reported doing laundry at
least twice per week and the rest do it almost daily. Moreover, increasing

traditional hand washing to appliance supported methods have driven the
automatic detergent consumption and hence the powder product category.
