Further, the market is expected to increase due to surging millennial spending, accelerating growth rates of infectious diseases, upsurge in healthcare expenditure, rising disposable income, etc.

Challenges: There is a lack of recent, reliable information on the condition of existing hygiene infrastructure and practices, including whether or not the infrastructure are actually functioning or benefits of some hygiene practices.
