Disinfectant Wipes and Sprays Market Size is valued at 9.26 Billion in 2024 and is predicted to reach 17.10 Billion by the year 2034 at a 6.4% CAGR during the forecast period for 2025-2034.
Globally, the COVID-19 pandemic has imposed significant burdens. Regarding the adverse outcomes of the current COVID-19 outbreak, developing effective preventive strategies is critical to coping with the virus's high mortality rate and potential to cause additional risks. Disinfectants and sanitisers are critical preventive measures against the coronavirus disease pandemic. During the pandemic's early stages, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended cleaning and disinfecting frequently handled objects. Routine cleaning and disinfection are critical components of reducing the risk of COVID-19 exposure.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) conducted a new survey that gives insight into several high-risk behaviours that some consumers have adopted to help prevent coronavirus spread. In hospitals and healthcare settings, disinfectant sprays and wipes decontaminate medical devices and surfaces. Disinfectants are chemical agents designed to inactivate or destroy microorganisms and come in various forms, including detergents, acids, oxidizing agents, alcohols, alkalis, aldehydes biguanides, halogens, phenols, and quaternary ammonium compounds.The outbreak of Covid-19 is a major factor expected to drive the growth of the global Disinfectant Wipes and Sprays Market.
The market is also projected to be driven by the increasing prevalence of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), growing awareness of the importance of maintaining proper hygiene practices, and the increased prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases. An increase in consumer preference for safe and hygienic facilities and rising investments by the governments in R&D infrastructure positively impact market growth. The demand for the product is likely to augment globally in the coming years on account of the introduction of biobased products in formulations and the commercialization of disinfectants.
The disinfectant wipes and sprays market can be segmented based on Products, Compositions, Distributions, Applications, and Region. By-Products, the market can be divided into Sprays and Wipes. The sprays segment dominated the market due to a surge in the covid-19 outbreak. The market can be segmented into Alcohol-based, Alkyl Dimethyl Benzyl, and Other Compositions in terms of Compositions. The Alkyl Dimethyl Benzyl is the fastest-growing composition segment throughout the global disinfectant wipes and sprays market. Based on Distributions, the market can be divided into Direct (Offline, Online) and Indirect (Offline, Online).
By Applications, the market comprises Healthcare, Consumer Care, Defence Sector, Government, Residential, Commercial Spaces, Hospitality, and Other (Industrial, etc.). The Healthcare segment further bifurcated into Wound Care in Hospital settings, Hospitals (Ex. Wound Care), Clinics/Physician offices, and Diagnostic Laboratories. Whereas the Consumer Care segment is bifurcated into Decontamination, Hand Disinfection, Skin Disinfection, Cleansing and Skin Care Wipes, and Care and Protection Body Care. The market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. North America is expected to dominate the disinfectant wipes and sprays market in the coming future.
