Suggestion
Whatever brand you care to consider, users duplicate heavily and increasingly the leading brand, which has increased its level of penetration over each of the sectors/segments.
This is not clear to me, but if its about correction fluid I'm not sure that it makes sense. (Probably doesn't make sense if it is about photocopiers either!)

Comment: "That's it Nikki. I figured it out. It's only coincidental that the text is about correction fluid. Duplication is a marketing term: "Fait qu'une même personne puisse être touchée par plusieurs supports ou médias, portant la même annonce publicitaire" which I have sort of figured out to mean duplicate purchasing in this context. I hope to God I'm right!

users more frequently and increasingly duplicate (make
copies) with the leading brand (X).
Alex, I've seen this sentence with a photocopying machine, but I can't for the life of me imagine how correction fluid would work. But I hope it helps.

Whatever the brand...
\"Whatever the brand, users are extensively, and increasingly, using the leading brand (x) for their copying needs, thus increasing its penetration rate in each segment\"
Alexandra, I consulted my partner who translates Eng to French (how convenient is that!?) and I believe this is it. Is it really correcting fluid or could it be photocopier toner?

: This really does make the most sense here. Maybe the first part should read: "Whatever brands they may have considered..."

Gotta disagree Alix - users don't duplicate the leading brand, they duplicate "avec" the leading bra
