The act of shaving someone else is a common part of a caretaker's job, but between the sharp razors and tricky positioning, achieving a close shave can be a daunting task. The TREO was designed with this process in mind, serving as the first razor created to be held by someone else's hand. The razor, which offers a high-quality shave to those who require assistance, gives caretakers the ergonomic comfort they require to confidently provide a close shave. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.6/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Inclusive Assistive Technology:** The development of innovative products and services that improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities or mobility issues, such as the Gillette TREO razor. - **Ergonomic Design for Caretakers:** Companies will invest in designing products that prioritize the comfort and safety of caretakers, who play an essential role in assisting individuals with disabilities. - **Collaboration Between Healthcare and Consumer Goods Industries:** There is potential for cross-industry collaboration between healthcare providers and consumer goods companies to develop and market products that meet the needs of individuals with disabilities or mobility issues. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Medical Devices:** Medical device companies can explore opportunities to develop assistive devices, like the TREO, that provide solutions for people with disabilities or mobility issues. - **Consumer Goods:** Consumer goods companies can prioritize the development of products that are inclusive and serve the needs of individuals with disabilities or mobility issues, which is an untapped market. - **Healthcare Services:** Healthcare providers can work with consumer goods companies to create innovative solutions and provide the necessary resources for individuals with disabilities or mobility issues. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Two-in-One Shaving Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multiglider.md) - [Compact Electric Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc5.md) - [Two-in-One Grooming Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bic-flex-5-trim-shave.md) - [Convenient Moisturizing Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moisture-razor.md) - [Voronoi Handle Hair Removers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razor-epilator.md) - [Accessible Grooming Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/revlon-comfort-control.md) - [Anti-Clogging Technology Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/easyrinse-disposable.md) - [Pivoting Low-Cost Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/harrys-plus.md) - [Blade Control Shaving Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-single-edge-pro.md)
