How to Start a Wet Wipes Manufacturing Business in India

Wet wipes are one of the fastest-growing personal-care products in India. From baby care and hospitals to hotels, restaurants, travel and everyday hygiene, demand keeps rising every year — and the profit margin on wet wipes is attractive. If you are looking for a modern manufacturing business with strong, repeat demand, a wet wipes manufacturing business is an excellent choice. This guide explains everything a beginner needs.

Why the wet wipes business is growing

• Rising hygiene awareness across homes, offices and travel.
• Heavy use in baby care, hospitals, clinics, hotels and restaurants.
• High repeat purchase — customers buy wipes again and again.
• Good profit margin compared to many other paper products.

Types of wet wipes you can make

• Baby wet wipes
• Sanitizing and antibacterial wipes
• Refreshing and facial wipes
• Restaurant, airline and travel wet tissues

What you need to start

• Wet wipes making machine: a machine that unrolls and folds the non-woven fabric, adds the liquid, cuts, labels and packs automatically. Rajshree India offers 7 models — from single-sachet machines to high-speed 30–100 piece big-pack lines.
• Raw material: spunlace non-woven fabric (40–80 GSM) and the wetting liquid solution.
• Space: a clean room or shed; size depends on the machine model.
• Power: 3-phase electricity connection.
• Manpower: just 1–2 operators per machine.

Choosing the right machine

If you are starting small, a single-piece sachet machine or a 5–25 piece pack machine is a great entry point. For larger production and supplying brands, the high-speed 30–100 piece big-pack lines (6-line and 12-line) give the highest output, and the 12-line model even supports Wi-Fi remote operation. The right choice depends on your target market and budget — our team helps you decide.

Where to sell your wet wipes

• Pharmacies, hospitals and clinics
• Hotels, restaurants and airlines
• Baby-care and personal-care brands (private label)
• Supermarkets and FMCG distributors

Training and support

A good manufacturer doesn't just sell you a machine — they help you run it. Rajshree India provides operator training, a machine trial before dispatch, a 12-month warranty on mechanical parts, and ongoing support in Hindi, Gujarati and English.
