DUBLIN, Ireland, April 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The crisis has created a sudden demand for hand sanitizer among businesses, hospitals, and personal consumers. Although most consumers are self-isolating to reduce the spread of the virus, some will have no choice but to venture out in order to get food, medicines or be tested for COVID-19. Hand sanitizer is seen as a convenient way to disinfect your hands when washing facilities are not available.
Many consumers are naturally concerned about having to spend time in public and rely on hand sanitizer in order to reduce the chance of bringing the virus into their homes. This increased demand led to a shortage of hand sanitizer which caused many businesses to shift their operations quickly to meet the demand; in Ireland, a number of alcohol distilleries switched to producing hand sanitizer in a matter of weeks.
