Category Insights
Fabric Detergents continues as the largest growth category in absolute terms,
significantly ahead of any other category. All countries exc Spain have had significant
growth with France, Germany and the UK >+50m each. This is helping the overall
Household market to grow in Europe as 6 of 9 categories decline.
Dishwash also has good levels of growth and has overtaken the slowing Paper
Disposables in terms of absolute growth. It is the only category to grow across all
European countries with the Hand sector key to driving this growth.
Paper Disposables growth has reduced drastically at a European level after slowing
over the last few quarters as price rises are annualised. France and Spain have
driven this growth but this is almost matched by declines in Germany and Italy.
Air Fresheners is the largest declining category, caused by Spain, Italy and
Germany. Evidence along with Fabric Enhancers that non-essential categories are
most affected when consumers manage their budgets.

Category Insights
Fabric Detergents is driving the overall Household growth in France. The categorystill benefits from the positive impact of Liquid Concentration and from the continuing
development of Capsules.
All segments are growing in Paper Disposables, mainly through base sales, even if
promotions are more important this year than in 2011.
Dishwash growth comes from the Hand and Automatic sectors. On HDW, all major
brands as well as PLs contribute to market growth. On ADW, strong contribution from
Unilever (innovation, promotion and good base sale trend). Base sales are in growth
thanks to more items per store. Household Cleaners continue to grow thanks to Multipurpose Cleaning, mainly
through Bathroom & Kitchen Cleaners, Wipes and to a lesser extent, Multi-purpose
Cleaners.
Air Fresheners grow ahead of Fabric Enhancers in this quarter. This category mainly
grows through innovation, on the Electric segment.

Category demonstrated growth
especially in Supermarkets and
Hypermarkets (significantly sub-
channels 800-1499 sqm and
2500-4999 sqm).
Discounters posted a decline
mainly due to a dip in sales for
Hard Discounters, which
experienced losses in manycategories like Insecticides,
Household Cleaners, Fabric
Enhancers, Air Freshener, etc.
Soft Discounters grew, but not
sufficient to push overall channel
growth.
Drugstores also declined
(Schlecker insolvency), major
losses contributed by PaperDisposables and Household
Cleaners.

Key Trends
Italian macro economical scenario
is in deep recession:
consumptions are strongly
decreasing both in volume and in
value, unemployment is steadily
increasing and GDP forecast for
2013 is more negative than
expected. South Italy is much
more affected in this downturn.
Inflation is decreasing and does
not support value sales.
Promotional volume sales are still
slowly increasing, especially for
branded products.
Also due to this general downturn,
Private Labels are gaining market
share more and more in every
segment of FMCG.

Category Insights
Comparing to Food and Beverage, Household markets are really very negative involume and also in value in 2012, though there are some channels such as
drugstores and discounters that are still positive. Some important markets such as
Fabric Detergents and Enhancers are structurally changing.
Among the top 5 Household categories, Fabric Detergents are increasing in value,
thanks to Machine Washing, even if in volume are decreasing due to the general
downsizing. Dish Washing also has a positive trend, but Hand Washing is decreasing
due to downsizing.
Paper Disposable, the biggest market of households, are for the first time negativeand every segment is decreasing.
Also Fabric Enhancers are still negative: Machine Descalers and Dry Cleaners
maintain a positive trend but every other category is decreasing. In the Softeners
market we audited the same dynamic of downsizing as Fabric Detergents.
In the Dishwashing category, only Machine Additives are negative.
Among other Household categories, only Insecticides are increasing, thanks to a
favourable season that helped the market.
Private Labels confirmed a strong growth in every price range and every category.They are leveraging promotions more and more using similar amounts and discounts
as branded products, that are growing as well.

Key Trends
Overall the year ended in
Supermarkets with a growth of 2.3%,
predominantly driven by price
increases, while volume in most
cases remained stable or with a
slight decline.
In Paper Disposables we saw a
similar trend that the growth is
explained vs. a year ago throughprice increases, while volume was
stable over 2012. Total value at
drugstores grew by 11%, although its
share of total is still relatively small
with approximately 10%.
As in previous Pulse reports with
Fabric Detergents the growth comes
from the mainstream products, Fine
Wash and Enhancers still in decline.Mainly caused by price increases.

Category Insights
Paper Disposables continued to grow, mainly driven by Toilet Paper which grew by 4million Euros. Its growth was marginally more in value than in volume, growing 1.5%
in value vs 1.1% growth in volume. Drugstores keep their momentum going as they
grew faster than supermarkets, 10% growth at drugstores vs 0.7% at supermarkets.
The share of drugstores is still relatively small with approximately 10%.
Also in Dishwashing we saw a similar growth pattern where drugstores grew turnover
by almost 4 million Euros, while regular retail loses more than 3% turnover. In this
category as well as in Paper Disposables there is a sales war between supermarkets
and drugstores, where especially drugstores is aggressive with promotions and
selling multi buys and/or large packs so that consumers have plenty of stock for awhile.
Fabric Enhancers continues to decline, consumers sticking to the mainstream
products which they can buy in promotions a lot, while items considered more luxury
are ignored due to the economic crisis.
Cleaning Supplies declined in Euro sales while in volume it grew by more than 10%.
This was mainly due to loss in the drugstore channel and at the same time increased
promotions which led to lower prices and more volume.

Key Trends
Spanish market is very influenced
by tax increase (applied since
September). Demand has
dropped in recent months due to
that fact. However, the demand
has a positive trend in the first
eight months of the year. Price
increase is constant through the
year, despite the tax increase in
September (manufacturers absorbthe increase).
Private Label represents more
than the 50% of the Household
market in value and it continues to
grow. Branded goods are
generally in decline despite an
increase in promotional activity.

Category Insights
All segments are growing in Paper Disposables. However, the tendency in volume isnegative, so the price increase would explain the value growth. In the Toilet Paper
category, the growth of big packs is driving up the category.
Dishwash grows because of Hand Concentrate. These have a lower price so their
economical position explains the growth in the category (the category remains flat in
volume trend).
Meanwhile Powder Detergents are still decreasing, Fabric Detergents starts to
decrease too, because Liquids are now static.
Air Fresheners are decreasing due to losses in all segments, except Automatic AirFresheners. This category has losses greater than all of the others in Household.
Even Private Label is decreasing and only the new launches in Automatic Air
Fresheners contribute to growth.
Insecticides is a very seasonal category and its decrease comes from climatological
reasons. Also, PL is increasing above 5% in volume and value growth which is
devaluing the category.

rate, followed by Fabric Enhancers.
Household growth has generally
been driven by price with Paper
Disposables now in decline, there is
a risk that other categories will be
affected in the same way so growthneeds to come from other methods.

Category Insights
Fabric Detergents are driving growth this quarter more than the other categoriescombined. Main Wash has strong growth this year due to higher promoted prices
across the top brands. There has been a trend in downsizing the number of washes
per pack that has contributed to this.
Household Cleaners continue to grow across the sectors with NPD an important
factor as the trend towards products with multiple usage continues. Reckitt Benckiser
are driving this in Cleaning whilst Unilever drive growth in Toilet and Bleach.
Fabric Enhancers is in growth due to the strong performance of Unilever and P&G
this is one of the few areas in Household where Private Label is struggling to matchbrands.
Dishwash growth is driven by the Hand sector and led by Private Label, Lever
Faberge and P&G. Over the last year, this has been the fastest growing category but
is now growing behind the Laundry and Cleaning categories.
Paper Disposables is no longer driving the overall Household growth in the UK and is
now static (slight decline) as the category is annualising price increases. Own Label
is suffering large losses in Soft Tissue and Household Towels with SCA gaining in
these areas.
