German aerosol production holding its own... According to German aerosol association Die Industrie-Gemeinschaft Aerosole e.V. (IGA), there were 1.33 billion aerosol cans filled in Germany in 2015, compared to 1.39 billion in 2014, for a decrease of 4.3%. Categories were broken down into aluminum and steel containers; IGA indicated that aerosol products filled in glass and plastic containers represent such small numbers that they can’t be reported in detail. Production of aerosols in the largest market segment, Personal Care, totaled 900 million units in 2015, with the largest subcategory, Deodorants/ Antiperspirants, accounting for more than half (458 million). The second largest category, Hairsprays, numbered 266 million. Household Care was the second largest category, with 102 million units. Air Fresheners accounted for 63 million of that total, with Shoe/Leather Care products following (14 million units). For the first time, IGA now incorporates Textile/ Fabric Care products into the “Miscellaneous” category.
