Dear scottyboy,
Thanks for your question. First, let me request that if any of the
following is unclear or if you require any further research – please
don’t hesitate to ask me for a clarification.
You requested –
+ up-to-date information on the global suncare market (ie.
sunscreen, sunless tan, after-sun products such as Coppertone etc)....
+ major brands (say the top 5)
+ who major brands are owned by
+ major brand market share (broken down by geographical area).
+ overall size of the global market in $
+ how global market is divided amongst the big players.
Well, here goes –
Global Suncare Market – Current Trends and Size
--------------------------------------------------------------
Euromonitor has published global suncare market forecasts for the next
several years, and they are as follows:
SUN CARE FORECAST US$MN - $1.18 billion in 2003, $1.2 billion in 2004
and $1.24 billion in 2005. Breakdown is approximately 73% “sun
protection,” 2% “Aftersun” and 25% “Self-tanning.”
Source: Soap & Cosmetics, 78 (3): 20(6), May 2002
Commentary on suncare market from “Global Cosmetic Industry” –
“Sun-care delivery systems have been modernized to make application
more effective and to attract customers unaccustomed to skin-care
regimens, particularly children and men. Current delivery systems and
formula refinements include foams and spray-ons; waterproof,
sweatproof, or sport-utility sunscreens; formulated-for-face
sunscreens and self-tanners; instant and variable SPF sunscreens; and
instant-effect or color-control self-tanning products. This is
definitely not a category in which prestige brands have much say, as
the leading brand of this segment, Estee Lauder's Clinique, represents
less than 2 percent of the total share of the category in the U.S.”
Also, some trend data –
· Manufacturers concentrating on new products with higher SPFs,
delivery convenience and appeal
· Also, novelty value for children, e.g. Coppertone KIDS Colorblock
Disappearing Colored Sunblock Spray
· In moisturizing after-sun products aloe is often the featured
ingredient.
· Neutrogena (Johnson & Johnson) introduced new oil-free products.
· Schering-Plough plans to launch several new self-tanning products
this year.

Major brands based on US sales at mass market for the 52 weeks ending

Since, as in most other industries, US sales account for about 50% of
global sales, this is a very good proxy for the strongest brands
worldwide. Ranking by brand would be as follows: Coppertone

Tropic ($27m).

Dear scottyboy,
Here is my follow-up to your clarification request.
First off, all of the data I had included in the first round is from
private sources and is not available online – however, you have the
references and could likely retrieve the entire text of the relevant
articles from your local library.
Here is additional information on global market share.
The best source of information I have uncovered is the following
report – “The World Market for Skincare and Suncare” – it was
published in 2000, and it contains oodles and oodles of data. See in
.pdf format at –
www.biz-lib.com/info/2348.pdf
(I’d download a copy right away, it looks like one of those things
that are available on the ‘Net by mistake…)
Another good source of data is the following report, which includes
European market share as follows:
Beiersdorf Nivea Sun 19.1
L’Oreal Ambre Solaire 15.9
Sara Lee Delial 6.0
Private label 4.5
Boots Soltan 4.3
Johnson & Johnson Piz Buin 4.1
Cadey Italiana Bilboa 2.4
L’Oreal Lancome 1.9
Clarins 1.9
Gelen Cosmetics Lemonoil 1.3
L’Oreal Vichy 1.1
Johnson & Johnson RoC 1.1
Lots more data available at –
http://www.in-cosmetics.com/page.cfm/Link=55
An article by Nancy O’Connor, “Sun Rise, Sun Set, Sun Sales,” provides
additional information on the global market for suncare, estimating it
at $2 billion annually (vs. the previous estimates which were in the
neighborhood of $1.2b).
Article includes market share for major brands in the following
countries: France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain. Looks like very good
information, on the whole –
http://www.ecrm-epps.com/Expose/V3_1/V3_1_A28.asp
Marketresearch.com has some interesting reports that are likely to
include all of the data you are seeking, but they come at quite a
cost, ranging from $3000 to $5000. For example –
Skin Care Products – Global Industry Analysis (March 2002)
International Suncare Products Market (May 1996 – last time this was
done)
See http://www.marketresearch.com/

Clarification to Other Questions Asked
________________________________
+ Euromonitor data – they claim these are numbers for total annual
sales in dollars, seems a bit high and may include some other lotions
etc. but there is no additional detail available.
+ As far as US market share being a proxy for worldwide – looking at
the data I now have, you’re right, my assumption on this end was bad.
Sorry.
+ NZ numbers – I only find the data, I don’t collect it and I
definitely can’t guarantee it. I guess you should double check with
local sources in NZ if this is critical to you.
I hope this response adequately addresses your request. Please let me
know if you are in need of additional information concerning this
query.
