Report Description

The India hand sanitizer market size is anticipated to register an impressive CAGR during the forecast period. Hand sanitizer is an antiseptic solution that is projected to be more in demand with the increasing awareness toward sanitation and personal hygiene among consumers. Moreover, it aids in preventing various contagious infections, such as COVID-19, norovirus, and influenza, etc. In order to reduce the virus impact, the COVID-19 pandemic has spurred recognition for increased hand sanitizer use in public places, transportation, healthcare facilities, and even common households.

Hand sanitizers are hygienic and anti-infection skincare products designed specifically to clean and protect the palms and fingers from disease-causing germs and viruses. Typically, hand sanitizers come in liquid, foam, or gel form. Hand sanitizer can be alcohol- based and non-alcohol based by formulation. When soap and water are unavailable for hand washing, hand sanitizer acts as a convenient solution.

According to Department of Food and Public Distribution (DFPD) data, India's capacity to produce hand sanitizer increased to 3 million liters per day from a mere 1 million liters per year, with the assistance of the Central and state governments. Moreover,  the sugar mills and ethanol makers are encouraged to produce more sanitizers, rose to the challenge set by the Covid-19 outbreak. Moreover, permission to produce hand sanitizers was granted to over 900 distilleries and independent businesses. Around 3.9 crore liters of hand sanitizer was produced throughout the country in the first five months of 2021. The country has authorized the export of hand sanitizers due to the abundance of sanitizers in the market, which has also benefited the country economically. Therefore, the demand for hand sanitizer is increasing along with the rising awareness for hygiene in India during the coming years.

Adoption of Hand Sanitizer Mostly by Working Population Will Drive the Market Expansion

The need for hand sanitizers in India is mostly attributable to the working population because they frequently come into contact with other people. As a result, hand sanitizers are now commonly used by the working population to prevent infection. Moreover, the World Health Organization (WHO) has advised using hand sanitizer to protect oneself and reduce the spread of infections. Moreover, the various government initiatives are making young generation aware, which is driving the market of Hand Sanitizer in India during the forecast period. Additionally, the government of India's Swachh Bharat Mission and numerous other campaigns by private organizations that consider the distribution of hand sanitizers in public places such as hospitals, shopping centers, and educational institutions have had a positive effect on the demand for the product. Therefore, owing to the rising safety concerns among the working population, the demand for hand sanitizers has been expanding the growth of the market.

Growing Health Awareness Among Consumers is a Significant Driving Factor

One of the basic habits that can help to protect an individual from a variety of diseases is cleaning hands by washing or sanitizing hands. Throughout the day at work or anywhere, countless germs are deposited in the fingernails, nail beds, and between our fingers. Various diseases are caused by these microorganisms because they multiply and are ingested. Contact with an infected person can result in the transmission of a variety of contagious illnesses, including COVID-19 infections and respiratory infections, etc. Hand sanitizers eliminate germs and disease-causing microorganisms from our hands. They are very convenient for keeping hands germ-free. Thus, these rising infections from germs is making people aware and driving the demand for hand sanitizers in India during the forecast period.

Availability of Wide Range of Hand Sanitizer Products

The emergence of scented hand sanitizers with fruit and floral scents including rose, green apple, peach, orange, sandal and others is another factor driving the hand sanitizer market.  The expansion of the industry is therefore being driven by the rising number of product launches that are increasing consumer access to hand sanitizer in India. Foam and gel-based hand sanitizers that may be used anywhere are being made by product manufacturers in the form of sachets and little plastic bottles for convenience. Additionally, manufacturers are introducing unique hands-free, battery-, and foot-operated dispensers that help reduce interaction and the chance of cross-contamination. Hand sanitizers are also available in alcohol based and non-alcohol based form. Hand sanitizers without alcohol are typically non-toxic and have a foam formulation. Typically, alcohol-based hand sanitizer comes in gel, foam, and liquid forms. Therefore, the market is also driven by the wide range of product availability in Indian market during the forecast period.
