These days it is getting difficult to find a good hand sanitizer spray in the market. Did all companies stop producing the santitizer products after Covid was over?
I am not able to find a good product to spray on public toilet seats, in hospital wash rooms or in shopping mall washrooms. Earlier I used to keep one Yardley hand sanitizer spray and that was great. Good perfume and great sanitizing product. It was small enough for flight travel also.
Now I think that product is discontinued. I can not find any such product online. Where do you guys find these products? Please suggest alternatives if you please.
Yardley sprays are available. Are you sure there was a sanitizer spray from Yardley?
We faced the same problem recently. No good brand sanitizer spray to use on toilet seats when traveling. And the only one being sold everywhere is PeeSafe. I did not buy because I did not like the name 🙂
Finally, have settled with disinfectant wipes. These are great because you will not need to carry separate wipes or tissue papers along with a spray. Here are some small packs we always keep in the travel bags,
SAVLON: https://www.amazon.in/Savlon-Germ-Protection-Wet-Wipes/dp/B089KPT8CF
DETTOL (there was a smaller pack available, you can check online) https://www.amazon.in/Dettol-Disinfectant-Surface-Sanitizing-Original/dp/B08KWYBL63/
Thank you! Yes, the wipes seem better. Though it is going to be Rs 4-6 per wipe.
The wipes may get dry when not used over time, no?
Do you know if there are wipes that are packed individually? I had seen alcohol swabs available in small individually wrapped packets. That was for medical cleaning purpose.
Individually wrapped wipes are difficult to find in India these days. By the way Bisleri sells nice sanitizer sprays that are pocket sized to carry and there are different perfumes to choose from.
It is not very wellknown product. I only found it on Zepto. Try if that’s available in your place.
I completely understand the struggle! Finding a reliable and portable sanitizer spray, especially for public toilet seats, can be tricky. I used to rely on Yardley too, and it’s a shame it’s no longer available. I recently came across a few alternatives that could work well for your situation. One product I’ve used is the Lifebuoy Total 10 Hand Sanitizer Spray. It’s compact, kills 99.9% of germs, and has a pleasant fragrance without being overwhelming. You could also try the Dettol Instant Hand Sanitizer Spray; it’s widely available, effective, and safe for use on surfaces like toilet seats.
I noticed the same trend many sanitizer sprays disappeared or became harder to find after the peak Covid period. Yardley was one of the best with its fragrance and effectiveness. I’ve switched to a few newer brands, but most either lack a pleasant scent or feel too harsh on the skin. For public toilet seats, I personally use a spray with at least 70% alcohol and some antibacterial agents. Have tried Dettol’s spray variants, but the scent is a bit strong.
After Covid many companies either shifted focus or reduced sanitizer production so its become a challenge to find travel friendly sanitizers with good fragrance For public toilet seats I prefer sprays with quick dry formulas and minimal residue Some brands also offer antibacterial sprays with moisturizing agents which might help if you want a gentler product Checking pharmacies or specialty hygiene stores sometimes yields better options than general supermarkets
