Despite the positive growth drivers, the household cleaning products market faces certain restraints that could hinder its growth potential. One key constraint is the increasing competition from private label brands and local players offering similar products at lower prices.

Stricter regulations regarding ingredient disclosure and environmental impact could limit the market growth for traditional cleaning products that contain harmful chemicals.
