MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS
Growing Popularity of Eco-friendly Products
Liquid hand washes have become increasingly popular in the past 15 years, both in the home and public places such as hospitals and toilets. Some people find them drying on the skin and experience skin irritation after using them. This is known as contact dermatitis and is particularly common in those who regularly use liquid hand washes as part of their job, perhaps in a hospital or kitchen, where cleanliness is vital. Many companies are now creating cleaning products that use more natural ingredients, avoiding harmful chemicals. Sustainable toiletries formulated with organic and natural ingredients that are kinder to the skin are in high demand. The increasing popularity of organic sanitizers, which are eco-friendly, skin-safe, and sustainable, is also likely to influence professional hygiene market growth due to safety concerns associated with the use of soaps and alcohol-based hand sanitizers.
IoT Revolutionizing Automatic Soap Dispensers
Vendors in the automatic soap dispenser segment connect IoT (Internet of Things) devices to their products, providing a sanitary no-touch experience without water and soap solution spillage. This has enabled more benefits to users, such as ensuring that people wash their hands properly for 20 seconds as per WHO recommendations. Automation in soap dispensers due to IoT gives a premium feel and helps maintain top-notch hygiene. The latest IoT-automatic soap dispensers are designed with sensors that will dispense the hand wash liquid in the precise quantity as programmed in the device. This is considered a 100% safe method to handle the device, and very minimal wastage of resources occurs.
Infectious Disease Outbreaks Across the World
Several infectious diseases are contagious and transmissible. The world of infectious diseases is constantly evolving, including infections at the global and national levels. The possibility of an unknown pathogen emerging and causing havoc is increasing. Disease outbreaks are mainly due to an infection or transmitted via animal-to-person contact, from the environment, or person-to-person contact. The majority of these diseases can be prevented by maintaining hand hygiene. A growing number of outbreaks has made people aware of hygiene, thereby supporting the growth of the professional hygiene market. Since December 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic has spread to several countries, leading to millions of cases. COVID-19 has spread to several regions worldwide, impacting the demand for sensor-based professional hygiene products at an exponential rate.
