The Global Hand Sanitizers Market size was USD 6 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2022 to 2030.
Hand sanitizer or hand rub is a disinfectant solution applied to the hands to remove disease-causing pathogens from the skin. Commonly available in foam, gel, and liquid-based variants, they consist of alcohol, water, emollients, polyacrylates, artificial and natural colors, and flavors. Alcohol used in hand sanitizer contains ethanol and isopropanol, which instantly denature proteins and destroy the lipid-based coating of certain bacteria and viruses. Water acts as a carrier for the ingredients and binds them to the hydrogel.
Emollients and other ingredients are added in small amounts to protect the skin from alcohol-induced dryness, neutralize the acidic effects of polyacrylates, and improve the smell and appearance of products. Non-alcoholic variants are also available, which are now formulated using glycerin, thickeners, and disinfectants such as benzalkonium chloride (BAC) and other antibacterial agents.
In today's health-conscious world, maintaining personal hygiene has become more important than ever. Antibacterial gel, an alcohol-based sanitizer, is a popular choice for individuals seeking a reliable disinfectant hand rub. This sanitizing gel acts as a versatile hygiene product, serving as a hand cleansing solution that effectively kills germs. With its antiseptic properties, the germ-killing gel offers reassurance in keeping hands clean and free from harmful bacteria, making it an essential item for everyday use.
Market Dynamics
Drivers:
Government programs and promotions on personal hygiene and cleanliness help create demand for personal care products. For example, on May 5, 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a 'Save a second life, clean your hands!' campaign has been introduced. Rising awareness of people's hand hygiene and recommendations from doctors and health associations to maintain clean and good hygiene habits are increasing awareness of personal care and influencing the demand for skin cleansing products.
Additionally, growing infrastructure facilities such as schools and universities, hospitals, hotels and restaurants, and residential facilities have increased the demand for personal care accessories. Growing infrastructure growth in retail stores, shopping malls, and specialty stores will pace the supply of personal care products and drive market growth. Additionally, rising consumer preference for scented beauty and personal care product categories has boosted the demand for scented hand sanitizers.
Restraints:
The widespread availability of alternative products such as soaps, shampoos, and oils reduces sales revenues from the products associated with the hand cleansing segment, such as sanitizers and washers, thereby limiting product demand. Furthermore, rising instances of the side effects of skin cleansers containing synthetic chemicals are expected to impede Hand Sanitizers market growth. Furthermore, unpredictability in environmental conditions such as moisture and heavy rain are expected to have an impact on the quality of skin care products and limit product demand.
