Disinfecting Wipes Market Trend Analysis & Competition Tracking
Demand for antiseptic wipes soared in 2020
Cases of corona-virus infection worldwide are increasing exponentially as hospitals are inundated with patients infected with the virus. This leads to an imminent risk of virus transmission within hospital facilities, as novel Corona-virus can be transmitted through contaminated metal surfaces.
This requires disinfection of the hospital's surroundings and equipment. The government has also issued guidelines on timetables and methods for disinfection in public hospitals. As a result, the demand for antiseptic wipes for hospital equipment is growing exponentially.
Disposable disinfecting wipes give remarkable traction
With the high demand for quick and easy cleaning options, disposable disinfecting wipes are receiving increasing attention. The increased frequency of use has further accelerated the demand for disposable disinfecting wipes. Disposable disinfecting wipes are expected to grow 1.7 times between 2020 and 2030.
North America to Witness Skyrocketing Sales of Disinfecting Wipes
The North American market, which accounts for nearly one-third of the market, is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period. The growing demand for disinfecting wipes in North America can be attributed to soaring infection rates and above-average spending on disinfectants.
