Manufacturers such as Kimberly Clark Corporation, Johnson & Johnson, Rockline Industries, Edgewell Personal Care, and Procter & Gamble are keen to develop hygiene products in various sizes, shapes, and colors to attract consumers.

According to the article "Alternative Phenoxyethanol Solutions for Wipe Preservation" published in the Nonwoven Industries Magazine, the use of functional aromatic ingredients (such as Conarom B or Conarom P2, Optiphem DP, etc.) can provide an alternative for developing innovative products with advanced microbial quality and safety. The increasing number of COVID-19 infections globally and its further spread are strongly influencing consumer use of facial tissues, disinfectant wipes, and toilet paper to help control the spread of this infectious disease. These rising cases are also impacting doctors and healthcare workers' use of alcohol-based special bed linens for effective disinfection and protection. According to data from the World Health Organization, as of April 2020, the United States alone had 333,811 confirmed COVID-19 cases. Furthermore, the types of surface cleaners commonly used in households are also being adjusted to prevent floor contamination and maintain a contamination-free environment.
