Automatic paper towel dispensers do not have to be touched to be activated. An infrared sensor detects hand motion and disperses a towel without the user ever having to touch any part of the unit.
This touch-free control is of vital important to many industries where sanitation ranks at the top of the priority list. In every building there are times when people spill something and have to go into the restroom to get a paper towel. These people do not wash their hands. They simply get the towel, and any germs on the hands will transfer to the surface of the unit.
Some people also fail to wash their hands very well to begin with. Again, pathogens will transfer to the surface of most fixtures contaminate the hands of the next person who washes and dries his or her hands.
The likelihood of germ transfer between restroom users is minimal, if non-existent, with automatic paper towel dispensers.
Automatic dispensers like this are therefore the best choice for any medical facility, large or small. They represent the highest level of conscientiousness and sanitation standards that should characterized any professional care facility. Even in small lab, it is mandatory that we keep restrooms clean to make certain that people coming in for tests do not pass germs to subsequent patients.
In family clinics, especially those dedicated to pediatrics, it is very important to keep diseases from spreading between children with developing immune systems. It also should appear obvious to all that a hospital really needs to have every room, including restrooms, as sterile as possible to minimize the chance of staph infections spreading to patients.
Local grocery stores should use automatic paper towel dispensers to reduce the chances of people transferring pathogens directly to food products. People handle everything in the store as they look for the best prices. Germs will transfer directly to products if people are picking up bacteria and virus off restroom surfaces. Children often go to the grocery store with parents and carry with them germs they brought from school. Hands free units are a solution to all of these potential problems. Kids love automatic things, so they will enjoy using a touch-free unit even more than will their parents.
The money that a restaurant spends on an automatic paper towel dispenser is negligible compared to the cost of a potential fine for a health code violation. If people start getting sick at a restaurant, the health department will show up. If too many paper towels are needlessly used, and if they spill onto the floor, then there is sure to be a citation forthcoming. Placing automated dispensers in the kitchen and the restrooms better controls the amount of paper waste. It also keeps food cleaner and healthier throughout the winter months when cold and flu is rampant.
Five Star Hotels should invest in automatic paper towel dispensers as a luxury amenity for guests. People who have spent good money on a five star hotel room want excellent room service on every level. An automated paper towel is a nice touch of refinement and thoughtfulness every guest will appreciate.
