• The Consumer Specialty Products Association’s (CSPA) 2011 Aerosol Pressurized Products Survey indicates an increase in US production during the past year, setting another record high with 36 million more units filled this year. This marks the highest year ever for aerosol production in the US. The estimated total units filled in 2011 were 3.782 billion units. Survey research was conducted by the independent firm, Association Research, Inc.
Household products remain the largest category and recorded a 2.4% increase in 2011. Personal care products have also increased marginally, up 1% over 2010. Much of the increase in personal care products came from perfumes and body spray.
“The continued growth in aerosol production indicates that consumers’ demand for aerosol products is growing,“ said CSPA President and CEO Chris Cathcart. “The variety of aerosol products categories, including not only household and personal care products but also, food, and automotive, provide the convenience and efficiency consumers want in their products.”
The survey, which also reports the unit volume of aerosol packaging components manufactured and delivered for domestic use in 2011, as well as estimates for Canadian and Mexican production, has served for 61 years as the primary index of the business strength of the aerosol products industry.
