Just like the consumer household wipes market, industrial and institutional wipes (I&I wipes) are in high demand amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Now more than ever wipes are being used to clean and disinfect surfaces in various facilities and institutions across the globe. In addition to being increasingly used in healthcare facilities to decrease cross contamination and infections, more supermarkets, manufacturing facilities, businesses and recently reopened schools are opting for wipes as a way to kill germs and viruses on hard surfaces.
The ease-of-use, convenience and effectiveness of wipes continue to help boost growth in all categories, including in industrial and institutional settings. Because they can be engineered to incorporate specific qualities, nonwoven-based wipes and wipers can outperform textile wipers and rags. For example, some can absorb more liquid, more quickly than rags, while also leaving less lint behind. Nonwovens also provide consistency in both size and performance, while shop rags can vary in size and can contain contaminants, even after being laundered.
