United Kingdom Toilet Paper Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.31% through 2030

The United Kingdom Toilet Paper Market is growing due rising hygiene awareness, rising demand for eco‑friendly options, and e‑commerce/subscription growth. 

According to TechSci Research report, “United Kingdom Toilet Paper Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the United Kingdom Toilet Paper Market stood at USD 1.54 Billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow USD 2.10 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 5.31% during forecast period. The United Kingdom toilet paper market has experienced consistent growth over the past decade, driven by evolving consumer preferences, heightened hygiene awareness, and a shift toward sustainable living. Toilet paper is no longer viewed as a purely functional product; instead, it plays a central role in the broader narrative of health, comfort, and environmental consciousness. The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the importance of such essentials, with panic buying and stockpiling highlighting its critical role in everyday life. Since then, consumer habits have shifted permanently, with people prioritizing household staples and preferring brands that ensure supply reliability and quality.

Sustainability is another key factor reshaping the UK toilet paper market. Increasing environmental consciousness has prompted a noticeable shift toward eco-friendly alternatives such as recycled paper, bamboo-based toilet paper, and plastic-free packaging. Consumers are more informed and demanding transparency from brands regarding their environmental impact. Certifications like FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) have become powerful indicators of product credibility. Retailers and manufacturers alike are adopting green practices to stay relevant. Many brands have begun using renewable energy in manufacturing, promoting water-efficient pulping techniques, and reducing or eliminating bleach and chemicals in their products. This movement is not only consumer-driven but also supported by government regulations aimed at reducing single-use plastics and encouraging sustainable production practices.

Innovation and product differentiation are playing a crucial role in attracting a broader consumer base. Traditional one-size-fits-all offerings are being replaced with a range of toilet paper products catering to specific consumer needs. Premiumization has gained traction, with an increasing number of consumers seeking higher-quality toilet paper that offers added comfort, softness, strength, or even fragrance. Dermatologically tested variants, lotion-infused options, and antibacterial toilet rolls are gaining popularity, especially among families and individuals with sensitive skin. Brand storytelling and packaging have also evolved, with eco-narratives and minimalist aesthetics enhancing product appeal. While price sensitivity remains a factor for many consumers, there is a growing segment willing to pay more for better quality and environmental assurance, which is steadily reshaping value perceptions in the market.
