History
Dishwasher tablets were introduced into the American market in the 1960’s. Unfortunately the
tablets were not successful due to unsatisfactory disintegration and solubility properties; they
disappeared from the market. The tablets were introduced again in the mid 1980s and since then
have gained a big market share in the European market, both in automatic dishwashing detergent but
also laundry and toilet cleaners.
Market Share of Dishwasher Tablets
The market share in tablets is increasing particularly UK and Europe, in the year 2000 tablets had a
market share of 63%. In New Zealand/Australia and the USA the market share for tablets is not as
great, but is on the increase.
