Sales volume worldwide grew rapidly in the late 1990s but declined during the early 2000s recession. Sales increased again for the rest of the decade though more slowly in the late 2000s recession. After a substantial growth into 2010, sales volume has remained fairly stable, until a substantial dip starting in 2013 caused by the switch to pads.
