Number One Brand of Healthcare Hand Wipes Offers Consumers Plant-Based, 70% Alcohol Formulation to Address COVID-19 Protection

ORANGEBURG, NY, August 12, 2021 – Nice-Pak, a global leader in wet wipes, introduces their latest innovation for back-to-school with Nice 'N CLEAN® Sani-Hands® Sanitizing Hand Wipes for the consumer market. A milestone in Nice-Pak’s corporate commitment to both sustainability and wellness, the new product features 70% alcohol from plant-based sources.

“Practicing good hand hygiene is critical to protecting family health as we prepare to return to school and the workplace,” said Robert Julius, Chief Executive Officer, Nice-Pak. “Nice 'N CLEAN® Sani-Hands® high alcohol sanitizing hand wipes offer consumers a sustainable option for removing bacteria and dirt more effectively than gel sanitzers.”

The Nice-Pak/PDI family of companies boasts the number one brand of healthcare and foodservice hand wipes with the Sani-Hands® brand family† (link), introduced in 2003, and are now bringing this important brand addition to the consumer market. Studies have shown that hand wipes are more effective than gels when it comes to removing bacteria, dirt, and impurities from hands.* Nice ‘N CLEAN® Sani-Hands® Sanitizing Hand Wipes are formulated with moisturizing aloe and vitamin E, so they are gentle enough to use on children’s fingers. Each wipe is made with sustainable, plant-based fibers.

“In consumer studies**, we found that killing bacteria and 70% alcohol are the top motivating claims that drive purchase,” said Mike Lyons, General Manager and Vice President of Brands, Nice-Pak. “With Nice ‘N CLEAN® Sani-Hands® Sanitizing Hand Wipes, parents can feel confident sending their kids to the classroom knowing they can safely and gently keep their hands clean.”

Nice ‘N CLEAN® Sani-Hands® Sanitizing Hand Wipes are available in a 24-count box of individually-wrapped wipes. Each single wipe fits easily into pockets, purses, backpacks and diaper bags for convenient on-the-go cleaning when soap and water are not available.

The timing for the launch is central for back-to-school, with most school districts across the U.S. planning in-person instruction this fall and the delta variant fuels an uptick in COVID-19 cases nationwide. Both the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) recommend consumers use hand sanitizing products that contains at least 60% alcohol to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and its many variants when handwashing is not an option.

Nice 'N CLEAN® Sani-Hands® Sanitizing Hand Wipes with 70% alcohol will be available at the following retail locations:
