NEW YORK, Oct. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- About Hand Sanitizers
Hand sanitizers, also known as hand antiseptic, are alternatives to soap and water. They are available in many forms such as gel, foam, and liquid. The major active ingredients used in hand sanitizers are isopropyl alcohol, ethanol, and n-propanol. Some of the inactive ingredients used in hand sanitizers are glycerine, propylene glycol, and essential oils of plants as thickening agents. Alcohol-based sanitizers are more effective than soap. The level of alcohol can vary between 60% and 85%. The most common level is 62%.
The use of hand sanitizers has gained popularity in recent years. Washing hands repeatedly, especially when on the move, is tedious and time consuming. Also, soap and water are not available everywhere. In such a scenario, hand sanitizers play a vital role in facilitating hand hygiene.
Technavio's analysts forecast the global hand sanitizer market to grow at a CAGR of 11.86% by revenue and 9.93% by volume over the period 2015-2019.
