The unexpected and surge in demand for sanitizing packaging has been one of the many effects of the Coronavirus emergency.
We have all read about the strong search for amuchin gel, one of the main sanitizers on the market.
So much so that the first days of this emergency were marked by a very high purchase of products to disinfect surfaces and sanitize hands.
Since March 2020, in fact, we have been forced to face an unknown virus that has affected and changed our habits.
First among them, a great concern for personal safety and the safety of loved ones, dictated even by precise and often binding guidelines.
Hence the surge in demand for sanitizing packaging to protect against the infection and spread of Coronavirus was triggered.
These gels and liquids, as well as many others, need proper plastic packaging capable of containing the substances and preserving their alcoholic characteristics as disinfectants.
Sanitizing gel: a possible solution to contain infection
The government and medical specialists have recommended and mandated the use of sanitizing gels as one of the possible measures that can be taken to contain the infection.
The reason is that hand gels (or hand sanitizers) are products with a high percentage of alcohol component that evaporates quickly on contact with air.
Because of this characteristic, they allow hands to be washed without the need to use water for rinsing.
They are products used mainly in the health care field, although even before the pandemic they had already entered our usage mainly for mini-packaging.
In particular, the handy travel containers have always been purchased mainly by commuters and travelers who have difficulty accessing toilets.
Now the need for protection will also increase “sanitization” processes in everyday life.
We must learn to use sanitizing gels consistently to protect ourselves and to limit a new spread of the virus.
And when we talk about sanitization, we are not just referring to hands.
The way the virus is spread requires that surfaces and environments also be cleaned, aired and sanitized.
These practices we will have to make “our own” in order to deal with the health emergency in the best possible way and to make it incapable of upsetting people’s habits again.
