Market Segmentation

• In 2022, the alcoholic segment is dominating the market with the largest market share over the forecast period.

 

On the basis of type, the global hand sanitizer market is segmented into alcoholic, non-alcoholic. Among these segments, the alcoholic segment is dominating the market with the largest revenue share during the forecast period because they are more effective in protecting against pathogens.

Typically, between 60 and 95 percent of alcoholic hand sanitizer is alcohol. Emollients and perfumes have been added by manufacturers to give the sanitizer a pleasant aroma and to soothe the skin.

 

• In 2022, the gel segment is dominating the largest market share over the forecast period.

Based on technology, the global antibody drug conjugates market is segmented into gel, liquid, foam, and spray. Among these segments, the gel segment is dominating the market.

The simplicity of product accessibility and increased availability of these kinds of antiseptic items will increase demand for these products in the upcoming years. During the coronavirus outbreak, gel hand sanitizers have been in extremely high demand all over the world, particularly in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. The CNBC television news station claimed that in March 2020, Amazon, Walmart, and Walgreens had run out of supply of a variety of gel hand sanitizers.

 

• In 2022, the hypermarkets/supermarkets segment is influencing the market with the largest market share during the forecast period.

On the basis of distribution channels, the global hand sanitizer market is segmented into hypermarkets/supermarkets, convenience stores, pharmaceutical and drug stores, online stores, and other distribution channels. Among these segments, the hypermarkets/supermarkets segment is dominating the market with the highest share during the forecast period due to a variety of hand cleaning solutions from different manufacturers being offered in the same location, and because these outlets sometimes provide discounts and other incentives for large purchases. In the first several weeks of the outbreak, several retailers had hand sanitizers in short supply. Due mostly to panic buying or stocking up on hand sanitizers, supermarkets in Singapore ran out of both of these and other household cleaning goods in March 2020. Prices were raised to deter stockpiling and restrict overspending on purchases.
