Carbonates in Japan

Carbonates increased by 1% in total volume terms to reach 4,113 million litres in 2011. This growth was slower than in the previous year, which saw 3% total volume growth thanks to the long hot summer of 2010. As in other categories, although the summer in 2011 was hotter than usual, it did not have the impact of driving the category to faster growth in 2011 than in 2010. However, thanks to the increasing popularity of seltzer and retro products, carbonates still registered positive growth.
