Smart factories and smart manufacturing will be further developed

Intelligence is the most important development trend of the future manufacturing industry. The epidemic is the driving force for the Hand and Surface Disinfectants industry to rapidly promote automation and flexible production. Enterprises in the industry will hire more high-tech talents and high-skilled, multi-skilled compound workers, reduce dependence on labor, and better respond to labor fluctuations. It can help the long-term development of Hand and Surface Disinfectants industry.

Product supply falls short of expectations

First of all, the epidemic prevention and control measures will affect the flow of people and activities, making the production of the Hand and Surface Disinfectants industry suffer due to the supply of raw materials and insufficient labor. Delays in resuming production and work will directly lead to inefficient operation. Second, during the epidemic, logistics is inconvenient, strict transportation control is implemented in each region, and the transportation speed is greatly slowed down, which affects the efficiency of supply.

Strict government regulations

Because disinfection products cover a wide range and are related to people's safety and health, governments of various countries have issued strict government regulations to control the hand and surface disinfectant industry. The FDA of the United States has put pressure on manufacturers to provide data on the long-term health effects of hand sanitizers, especially hormones and drug-resistant bacteria to determine the safety of these hand sanitizers. These regulations aim to ensure the safety of consumers by controlling chemicals used in hand sanitizers.

Compared with biological disinfectants, chemical-based surface disinfectants have harmful effects

If used improperly, chemical-based surface disinfectants will have harmful effects. Adverse effects of chemical disinfectants: Most chemical disinfectants available on the market are toxic. For example, sodium hypochlorite is an effective method against blood-borne pathogens, but it is also highly corrosive and irritating to respiratory tract, which is dangerous to cleaners and building residents, has destructive effect on many surfaces, and is toxic when released into the environment. Improper use of these disinfectants will cause environmental hazards and be harmful to patients exposed to these disinfectants. As more and more end users need more environmentally-friendly solutions, the use of chemical-based disinfectants is limited, and the use of these disinfectants is limited to a limited number of non-critical items with a small amount.
