If you are keen to maintain the highest levels of hygiene for customers using your bathroom, then equipping it with a paper towel dispenser will offer them the perfect way in which to keep clean and minimize the risk of spreading germs when they wash their hands after using the bathroom.
There are many benefits that come from using paper towels over other forms of hand drying equipment in a bathroom. Perhaps the most immediately obvious of these is that because the towels are only used once and then thrown away, they are not able to harbor any dangerous bacteria from other users. By having the paper towels in a dispenser, you can ensure that they are kept in a clean and safe place, and cannot accidentally be tipped onto the floor by a user. This minimizes the amount of additional cleaning that you might have to do if you simply leave the paper towels on a shelf where they might conceivably be knocked over.
Choosing a paper towel dispenser over an electric hand drier will save you money on your electricity bill, and any associated maintenance. As long as you keep the dispenser well stocked, people will be able to dry their hands easily and conveniently and maximize their hygiene standards.
With the current focus on the environment, the any unnecessary use of resources is being looked at in more detail than ever before, and one area where we can all improve is in the use of paper. The advantage of using paper towels is that they are generally made from a fairly low quality paper stock – unlike writing paper – and can therefore be manufactured from recycled material using bio-degradable paper dyes, which reduces the environmental impact of the paper towels.
Overall though, the advantages of a paper towel dispenser over other options such as electric hand driers are in the lack of maintenance, and low ongoing costs when compared to the alternatives. All you need to do is keep a stock of paper towels on hand, and refill the dispenser when required in order to be sure that anyone using the bathroom can do so safely and hygienically.
