A couple of years back soap bars were the most frequently used kind of soap. After COVID-19, the trends have changed and people have shifted towards liquid hand soaps. Now there is another soap variant available in market known as the foam soap. But the question is it as effective as liquid hand soaps?

What are foam soaps?

Foam soaps are basically aerosolized liquid soaps that are dispensed through a special kind of pump mechanism.Foam soap seems cost effective, as the soap is diluted with air. They are becoming popular and are mainly used in health care industry, food industry and in school; these are the places where hygiene is most important. But the question is that are foam soaps actually effective.

Liquid soaps or Hand Foam: which is better?

Recently a study was conducted to study the effectiveness of foam soap in comparison to liquid soap. And the results were astonishing. One might think that foam soap is more efficient but instead they were found to be way less effective in eliminating anti-microbial entities from the hand.

In some pilot experiments conducted, it was found that liquid soap is more effective in removing the germs and bacteria from the hands. There are various reasons for this.

Why is liquid soap better than foam soap?

• The liquid soap when pumped in hand is rubbed with some water to produce lather. This helps to cleanse the hand and rinse off the all the germs and bacteria. The foam soap on the other hand is already in the form of lather therefore involves no rubbing of hands and hence the chances are some bacteria remains unwashed.
• When foam soap is dispensed, the amount of soap per pump is less in comparison to liquid soap. This means that there isn’t sufficient soap to clean your hands. It is means to properly wash your hands; it will require greater quantity of foam soap than liquid soap.
• The foam density is very less from about 0.01g/cm³ to about 0.25g/cm³. This little density does no good in cleaning and only gives a false sense of contamination.
