When soap and water aren’t readily available, use alcohol hand wipes for killing bacteria and other germs quickly and easily. Available in a range of sizes, brands and scents, alcohol hand wipes at Staples keep your hands clean and disinfected so you can spend less time worrying and more time doing what matters most.

What Are Alcohol Hand Wipes?

Alcohol hand wipes are disinfectant wipes containing alcohol for sanitizing hands and surfaces quickly, similar to a sanitizing gel, liquid or spray but with a few differences. Rubbing the hand sanitizer wipes over the skin not only kills bacteria but also lifts away dirt, debris, grease or any other surface residues. Plus, they come in conveniently shaped packaging for easy storage in bags, drawers and small compartments. Use an alcohol hand wipe anytime you need clean hands, as well as on surfaces such as doorknobs, rails or other areas of frequent contact.
