Drying our hands... something we have all taken for granted. In public establishments, we use the restroom, wash our hands, and seek out the hand towel dispenser or dryer that is located nearby. At home, we grab the nearest hand or dish towel, or we use rolled paper towels and keep them on the counter in a kitchen towel dispenser. We may even mount them on the wall near the stove top or oven in an open and often flimsy holder. When we buy the new and fancy products, we sacrifice the look we prefer for the healthy benefits of paper over cloth.
Most agree that a change from cloth towels to paper is a healthy and efficient move. A little research before buying your towels and dispenser will result just the right products. You will be able to find paper towels and hand towel dispensers that can help fight germs, reduce clutter, and prevent waste in any room of your home. No longer will you consider paper towel dispensers to be kitchen towel dispensers only, or mere holders of rolled paper hand towels.
Shelves Wall Mount
A lot of research and money have gone into perfecting paper towels and their dispensers. They can be categorized as "counter top" or "wall mount", dispensing "rolls" or "sheets" either manually or automatically. Each has its benefits, and there are negative impacts associated with many. There are very inexpensive versions of towel holders and certainly down right cheap towels on the market. But let's examine some of the other considerations where value, rather than just price, plays an important role.
Counter top paper towels dispensers come in wood, metal and varying types of synthetic materials. Many of them offer designs that attempt to match popular kitchen decor. These styles dispense paper towels in perforated rolls, the most readily available towels beyond a doubt. They are usually manually operated, although newer and highly innovative models may be battery operated or electric. Counter space is required, and they offer little if any protection from dust, liquids and other contaminants.
Wall mount paper towel holder varieties are more versatile in design. They are available in roll-dispensing and sheet-dispensing models, and both manual and automatic styles are on the market. While there are some attractive designs available, most dispense uncovered rolls and require tearing the sheets by hand. The automatic as well as the manually operated types that offer a cover for the hand towels are usually unattractive metal containers that are boxy and commercial in appearance.
Manually operated roll dispensers always present the highest potential for waste. A folded towel dispenser of individual sheets has some advantage where waste is concerned as do the automatically dispensed pre-measured towels. "C fold" towels are the favorites in many of the covered dispensers. They are stacked in the dispenser, and C-folds tend to be pulled out in wads, thereby creating more waste rather than less. Multifold paper sheets (also called "M fold" towels) are interlocking and easy to remove, one at a time from the bottom of a dispenser, indicating advantages over C fold paper, both in ease of use and waste reduction.
Machine dispensing of covered towels offers an advantage in hygiene but present the highest risk for malfunction. Have you ever stood before the "magic" ones in a public restroom and waved at them futilely while your hands dripped dry? They also require electricity and are not at the top of eco-friendly lists.
In addition to looking for dispenser benefits of better hygiene, less counter clutter, reduced paper towel waste and conservation of laundry water and electricity, give some thought to the items listed below. Before choosing a paper towels dispenser for your home, consider the following simple checklist:
Proposed Locations Appearance and Size Ease of Installation Ease of Use and Re-filling Availability of Re-fill Hand Towels Initial and Recurring Expenses Potential for Malfunction Expense of Repair or Replacement Potential for Waste Environmental Friendliness
Be sure to consider expense in terms of time and money and to weigh in benefits and value. Among the available hand towel dispensers and paper towels selections, there are affordable, efficient and attractive options that offer health benefits and are eco-friendly. In addition they are designed to be handy and appropriate for every room in the house!
