Hand sanitizer is in high demand, but not all antibacterial products are created equal. Do you know how to spot the real deal from cheap lookalikes? Learn what to look for and how to ensure you're providing clients only the best products possible from hand sanitizer experts.
The CDC (Centers for Disease Control & Prevention) has found that sanitizers with an alcohol concentration between 60-95% are the most effective at killing germs. Anything less, and you risk providing products that may not destroy all germs, or merely reduce germ growth rather than killing them completely. The result? Unhappy end-users who won't be eager to give business to your client again, which means that client won't be returning to you either. Avoid that situation entirely and sell only sanitizer above the 60% alcohol content threshold – a win for you, your clients and everyone's safety.
With a 70% ethyl alcohol formula that prevents bacterial development, you can feel confident this hand sanitizer will stop germs in their tracks.
One of the biggest complaints consumers have about hand sanitizer is that it dries out hands, and people's hands are already a bit parched due to increased hand washing. As a result, people use drying hand sanitizers less, which results in a greater spread of germs and disease. Prevent this by prioritizing formulas that include aloe vera, a natural ingredient that helps keep skin soft and moisturized. End-users will notice their hand sanitizer is more hydrating than other styles, which means increased brand awareness and a positive brand association for your clients. Those sentiments will go a long way when it comes to getting repeat orders.
Ethyl alcohol and aloe vera combine to keep hands soft, smooth and, most importantly, germ-free.
While hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol content is recommended, some healthcare industries require even higher strengths. If you're fulfilling orders for hospitals, doctor's offices or surgery centers, be sure to present the highest strengths possible for maximum protection. These professionals work on the front lines to keep us safe, so it's crucial we do our part to keep them healthy too. High-strength hand sanitizer also makes a great choice for company staff gifts to show employees their health is a top priority.
Not only will this product's 70% ethyl alcohol formula kill germs and bacteria, the carabiner attachment also makes it easy to attach to scrubs and lab coats.
Selling the right hand sanitizer is only half the battle. Finish the job by educating end-buyers on best practices for using hand sanitizer to ensure recipients are getting all the germ-fighting benefits. While most people think they know how to apply hand sanitizer, you'd be surprised by how many don't follow the recommended instructions! Be sure to explain important usage information, like:
Always remove any visible debris from hands before applying
Apply about a dime-sized amount to the palms of hands when using traditional gels
Apply a few sprays to the palms of hands when using spray bottle formulations
When rubbing hands together, ensure sanitizer covers all surface areas, including fronts and backs of hands and between all fingers
Continue rubbing for approximately 20 seconds, or until all sanitizer is absorbed.
