Essity reports continued incontinence-product growth in third-quarter results

Sweden Essity

Essity reported continued growth in incontinence products in its third-quarter results, published on October 22.

The company said Health & Medical delivered organic growth and good profitability during the quarter, with incontinence products continuing to grow.

Personal Care sales also performed well, according to the report. Essity attributed this partly to continued high growth and increased market shares in incontinence products and feminine care.

These are company-reported results for the quarter. The announcement describes Essity's business performance; its statements about market-share gains are not an independent assessment of the wider incontinence-products market.
