## Background: Unstoppable Price Hikes of Paper Diapers Hit Childcare Household Finances Directly
The price hikes of paper diapers are unstoppable. Kao's 'Merries' raised prices by about 10% in 2022, Daio Paper's 'GOO.N' by over 10% in April 2025, and P&G's 'Pampers' implemented a 4-6% price increase in August 2025. A price increase for acrylic acid, the raw material for paper diapers, has also been decided for April 2026, and further price increases are expected in the future.
According to the 'Baby Price Index' calculated by Yuki Endo of the Hamagin Research Institute, the inflation rate of baby-related products rose by +6.9% year-on-year, more than double the pace of the overall consumer price index (+3.2%). Looking at paper diapers alone, the cost until graduating from diapers (age 3) amounts to approximately 260,000 yen (calculated at an average of 240 yen per day x 365 days x 3 years).
