{Collaborative Content} Hand sanitisers, disinfectants, and other cleaning products have naturally exploded in popularity over the past few years, thanks to ongoing events. The majority of these contain alcohol, however, which many people don’t want to use on their skin or around their home.
That leaves open the question as to what products you’re left with.. Naturally, that only leaves alcohol-free options. While these have steadily grown in popularity, many people still question whether or not they’re effective.
The answer to this can be complicated, as it’s a lot more than a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no.’
Are Alcohol-Free Cleaning Products Effective?
The most straightforward answer to whether or no alcohol-free cleaning products are effective is ‘yes, but only if you buy high-quality options.’ There are numerous options to choose from, such as SANZi, that will be just as effective as their alcohol-based counterparts.
On the other hand, however, there are some options that claim to be effective, although they wouldn’t be. At least, they won’t be as effective as you might expect. As a result, you’ll need to spend some time making sure that you buy the right option for you.
Pros & Cons Of Alcohol-Free Cleaning
As you might expect, there are multiple pros and cons associated with alcohol-free sanitisers and other cleaning supplies. If you’re considering buying them, then you’ll need to know these in advance. After all, some of the negatives could end up putting you off buying them.
There shouldn’t be any cons that large, however, as there seems to be more positives associated with the products. In general, non-alcohol cleaning products are much better on your hands and other areas, as alcohol could often damage your skin.
While this isn’t too noticeable, it can become more irritating over time. As such, you can protect your skin alongside your health with an alcohol-free solution. If you have children, there’s also fewer risks associated with accidental ingestion.
One negative with these products, however, is that they usually come in a foam or something similar. If you have a dispenser for hand sanitisers at home, for example, then you might need to change it for this. That’s because most dispensers are focused on gels, which is typically the form sanitisers come in.
How To Use Alcohol-Free Disinfectants Safely
While the use of hand sanitisers couldn’t be much safer, the same mightn’t be said for other disinfectants, regardless of whether they have alcohol in them. If you need to keep your home or business premises clean for a socially-distanced event, then you’ll need to use these.
To use them safely, you should always make sure the area is well ventilated. The easiest way to do so is to open some windows before cleaning. You should always make sure to follow the instructions on your specific brands’ packaging.
That’s especially true of any safety instructions, such as if you get it in your eye or a child swallows it.
Wrapping Up
If you’re going to buy an alcohol-free disinfectant or any non-alcohol-based cleaning product, you should always make sure that you know what you’re buying. While there are options that are effective, quite a few of them aren’t. As such, they wouldn’t be worth the investments.
The majority, however, could be worth considering.
