Market Overview:
The global alcohol swabs market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing incidence of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) and rising demand for hygiene products. Alcohol swabs are used for disinfecting skin before an injection or venipuncture, as well as for cleaning medical equipment. They are also used for general household purposes such as cleaning and sanitizing surfaces and hands. The global alcohol swabs market is segmented on the basis of type into cotton tipped swabs, foam tipped swabs, non wovens, and others. The cotton tipped segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global alcohol swabs market in 2018 owing to their widespread use in hospitals, clinics, and homes across regions. The foam tipped segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period due to its superior absorbency properties when compared with other types of tips available in the market. On the basis of application, hospitals accounted for majority share of revenue generated by sales of alcohol wipes globally in 2017; however this trend is likely to change over time with clinics emerging as a more lucrative application area over hospitals owing growing awareness about HAIs among patients across developed economies such as North America and Europe .
Product Definition:
Alcohol swabs are small pads soaked in alcohol which can be used to cleanse the skin before a needle injection or to disinfect an area of skin prior to surgery.
Cotton Tipped Swabs:
Cotton-tipped swabs are used to collect DNA samples from surfaces. The cotton-tipped swab is moistened with alcohol and then placed on the surface for which it will be used to extract a sample. This process is repeated several times in succession until a sufficient quantity of DNA has been collected for testing.
The growth factor affecting the Alcohol Swabs market size is its application in collecting biological fluids such as blood, saliva, semen,.
Foam Tipped Swabs:
Foam tipped swabs are used to collect alcohol samples during an Alcohol Test. The foam-tipped swab is a thin, flat piece of plastic that is saturated with the chemical substance of interest and then inserted into the alcoholic beverage. It remains in place until after the test has been performed and results are recorded.
Application Insights:
Based on application, the global alcohol swabs market has been segmented into hospital, clinic and home. The hospital was the largest application segment in 2017 and is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing prevalence of infectious diseases coupled with rising number of surgeries globally. In addition, factors such as growing government expenditure on healthcare along with technological advancements in medical devices are also contributing towards increased use of swabs at hospitals across the globe.
The home is expected to be one of the fastest-growing segments during forecast years due to rising incidences of colds.
Regional Analysis:

The growing prevalence of infectious diseases is one of the major factors responsible for high demand for alcohol swabs in this region. According to a study published by CDC, from 2014 to 2016, more than 60 million people got infected with influenza and this number is growing every year. In addition, increasing cases of cancer are also driving the need for these tests in North America as they can be used as an early diagnostic tool.
