Market Story
Chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) cloths have become essential in infection prevention and patient hygiene, particularly in preoperative care and ICU environments. These antiseptic wipes, impregnated with CHG solution, are designed to reduce bacterial load on the skin and prevent bloodstream and surgical site infections.

With healthcare facilities adopting strict infection control measures, the use of CHG cloths has surged in hospitals, long-term care facilities, and outpatient surgery centers. Their convenience, efficacy, and broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties make them a preferred choice over traditional bathing methods using soap and water.

The introduction of alcohol-free, skin-friendly CHG cloths and ready-to-use pre-saturated formulations has expanded their use among sensitive patient groups, including pediatrics and geriatrics. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic underscored the critical role of surface and skin disinfection in healthcare, further accelerating adoption rates.
