According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled "North America Hand Sanitizer Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2021-2026," the North America hand sanitizer market exhibited strong growth during 2015-2020. Hand sanitizers are sanitizing agents that comprise numerous active and inactive ingredients to effectively kill infectious agents or pathogens that are transmitted via hands. They include ethanol, ethyl alcohol, thickening agents, humectants, fragrances and isopropyl alcohol in their formulations that aid in disinfecting hands from common pathogens. These agents are extremely convenient to use while being gentle on the skin, due to which they are widely preferred as efficient alternatives to soaps and other cleaning agents. These products also assist in retaining the moisture in the hands by not removing natural oils from the skin upon repetitive use. As a result, they are widely utilized as an essential commodity across households, educational institutes, healthcare facilities, eateries and public places.

We are regularly tracking the direct effect of COVID-19 on the market, along with the indirect influence of associated industries. These observations will be integrated into the report.
