Increasing social campaigning and initiatives pertaining to importance of hand wash by renowned organizations are also expected to drive the market. For instance, awareness initiatives by the World Health Organization, including SAVE LIVES: Clean Your Hands annual global campaign, launched in 2009, Clean Care is Safer Care program from 2005 to 2015, and Infection Prevention and Control campaign from 2015 to 2017, were aimed to galvanize the importance of hand hygiene in reducing health care-associated infection.
Many manufacturers such as Brittanies Thyme, Puracy, and MADEOF LLC have been venturing into organic hand wash to attract customers who are largely influenced by products made from natural ingredients. These market players have been benefitting by transparent listing of important details, such as constituents, shelf life, and production processes. Organic hand wash products are free from parabens and sulfates that are known to cause rashes and irritation on the skin. These products contain plant based extracts, such as neem, honey, extra virgin oil, eclipta, castor seed oil, and coconut oil.
The commercial end-use segment held the largest market share in 2019 and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. This is attributed to increasing demand for hand hygiene products from the hospitality industry, healthcare industry, and restaurants. The e-commerce distribution channel segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR of 7.7% from 2020 to 2027. Increasing internet and smartphone penetration across the globe is a major reason for the market growth.
Asia Pacific accounted for the largest share of more than 32.0% in 2019 owing to growing awareness among people regarding hand hygiene. In addition, increasing promotional events by the government and global organizations will fuel the demand for hand wash products in the region. For instance, in 2018, the World Health Organization asked the Southeast Asian countries to promote the practice of good hand hygiene, which could help prevent sepsis, a life-threatening disease that affects almost 30 million people globally every year.
Europe is expected to expand at the fastest CAGR of 6.6% from 2020 to 2027. According to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), healthcare-related infections, including those caused by bacteria resistant to antibiotics, have been increasing the public health problems in Europe, which is expected to drive the demand for hand wash products in the region.
