Industry Definition and Segmentation

Hand sanitiser is an antibacterial solution that may be used instead of soap and water and is typically more effective in removing bacteria. It is used to prevent the spread of infection, which is mainly transmitted by Hand and can lead to various diseases such as nosocomial food-borne illness and others, including norovirus, influenza, meningitis, etc. The Hand Sanitizer industry report comprises segments by Product (Gel, Foam, Spray, Others), Distribution Channel (Online Stores, Departmental Stores, Pharmacy Stores, Others), End-Use (Restaurants, Schools, Hospitals, Household purposes, Others), and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa, and South America).

North American Region is Driving the Growth of the Industry

North America holds the largest share in the industry due to the increased government initiatives to promote good personal hygiene practices, increased concern for health and hygiene maintenance by most of the population, and increased extreme product availability with increased penetration of online and offline channels.

The market is being propelled by the rising consumer preference for health and wellbeing. Furthermore, a rise in government initiatives to promote good personal hygiene practices and a surge in the distribution of hand sanitisers in various healthcare settings further boost the market growth. Other factors that are aiding the industry's expansion are a rise in the transformation of individuals' lifestyles resulting in increased healthcare expenditure, rising hygiene awareness, and organisational aid from the WHO, FDA, and others to meet the growing need for sanitation are all factors contributing to the industry's development.

Despite this, health dangers associated with hand sanitiser's chemical components are projected to stifle market expansion throughout the forecast period.

Best Procurement Practices

The global Hand Sanitiser industry report by Procurement Resource gives an in-depth analysis of the best buying practices followed by central global Hand Sanitiser regions across the globe, such as engagement models, contract terms, and buyer and supplier negotiation levers, among others.

Category Management Studies

To ensure that no pollutants reach the reactor, the materials are adequately mixed in a chemical reactor. Generally, it takes 30-120 minutes for 1 tonne of hand sanitiser content to respond. The sterilising effect and content quality of hand sanitisers are evaluated to check if they fulfil the criteria. The contents of the hand sanitiser are emptied into a transfer barrel, which is then transported to another workplace, followed by the transfer barrel and filling machine. Hand sanitiser gel is correctly injected into clean bottles by a piece of automated filling equipment, which also assembles the pump. The produced label will be applied to the bottle using an automatic labelling machine. Manufacturers must utilise expert tools or experimental testing procedures to verify that final items fulfil client specifications and are packaged for sale.

Product Innovations by Manufacturers, Further Boosting the Procurement of Hand Sanitizer

The industry is witnessing expansion due to the product innovations, such as the inclusion of scents in sanitiser formulations, which are likely to drive the global market for hand sanitisers forward. Furthermore, increasing industry research and development efforts will likely create new market opportunities. As a result, of the following factors, the market is likely to have a positive impact.

The regional markets for the industry can be divided into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.

Market Landscape

With many regional and local companies, the hand sanitiser industry is highly fragmented. The market participants are up against stiff competition, particularly from the industry's top manufacturers, who have a big consumer base, great brand awareness, and extensive distribution networks. In addition, market participants are launching a new and broad line of hand sanitisers with differing quantities of alcohol to suit various skin types. Furthermore, organic and inorganic techniques such as collaborations, mergers, acquisitions, and advertising and marketing are standard in this industry.

Key Initiatives by Companies

  • SC Johnson, a worldwide manufacturer of domestic and expert cleaning and disinfecting products, transformed a line that was previously used to test new products into a line that can produce up to 75,000 bottles of hand sanitiser per month for health workers, first responders, and the company's production employees in April 2020.
  • Valisure, an independent laboratory, revealed in November 2021 that it had discovered benzene in 44 of the 260 hand sanitiser samples it tested around the end of 2020. In humans, benzene can cause leukaemia and other significant long-term health problems. After the FDA loosened its typical limitations, more than 1,500 new producers entered the hand sanitiser industry, according to the Massachusetts Public Interest Research Group.
