Cleveland OH, March 8, 2023 – According to a new study by The Freedonia Group,
Manufacturing Wipes, demand for wet special purpose manufacturing wipes is forecast to increase 4.6% per year to $20 million in 2026, a rebound from the 2016-2021 period, as manufacturing and economic factors continue to rise from 2020 lows.

Demand for special purpose wipes is forecast to grow 2.9% annually to $241 million in 2026.
