Foam vs. Gel Sanitizer
Foam Sanitizer
- Up to 99% effective at stopping the spread of germs
- Substantial savings in product usage over traditional gel
- Delivers approximately twice as many dispenses per refill as most gel sanitizers
- Stays on the user’s hands — no mess!
- Winter variety available (alcohol-based and freeze-resistant)
Gel Sanitizer
- Up to 99% effective at stopping the spread of germs
- Lower total cost per bag/case than foam (but higher cost per usage)
- Easier to slide around all parts of the hand, including between fingers and around fingernails, than foam
- Typically, a better option for healthcare and food service industries because it’s easier to sanitize all parts of the hand and ensure removal of germs
- Can drip from the hands and make a mess
