The Gel is the Leading Segment  


Based on product form, the market is fragmented into foam, gel, spray, and others. The gel is estimated to be the leading segment owing to its ability to easily scatter on every part of the palm in a smaller quantity as compared to segments such as foam or spray. Likewise, the gel is a thicker solution as compared to foam or spray, making it more effective in eliminating germs.


Foam, spray, and others have also exhibited a significant presence owing to the convenience of the quick use of the spray in commercial places, and foam being able to reduce dust and air particles infiltration assists to escalate the demand for these products.


By Type


Alcohol-Based Segment Holds the Highest Market Share


Based on type the market is segmented into alcohol-based and alcohol-free. Alcohol-based is projected to gain more traction on account of its ability to better exterminate germ, bacteria, and viruses than an alcohol-free solution, which thus makes it more desirable especially for safeguarding from infectious diseases. Similarly, alcohol-based with moisturizer content also boosted the demand as it helps to prevent the hands from dryness.


On the other hand, alcohol-free sanitizer is also showing a strong presence as it is being preferred for kids' use due to its less harmful quality while still able to protect the users from various types of micro-organisms that can harm the health of a person.


By End-User Analysis


Hospital Segment is Anticipated to Embrace the Largest Share


By the end-user, the market is divided into schools, restaurants, hospitals, households, office buildings, and others. Hospitals are estimated to be the dominant segment due to healthcare workers such as doctors, nurses, technicians, and others dealing with sick patients on a day to day basis who have a high chance of possessing transmittable diseases. Additionally, the usage of product after surgery or stitching patient’s wounds by doctors and nurses will escalate the need in this segment.
