Bathroom paper towel dispensers are the perfect, multipurpose solution for a wide variety of uses in your bathrooms. Having washroom paper towel dispensers available can be useful for a number of reasons, and here are our top five as to why you should have them in your rooms. We will outline a number of topics from hygiene, cost-effectiveness and versatility to show you exactly what you are missing.

They are cost-effective compared to electric driers
Bathroom paper towel dispensers are incredibly cost-effective when compared with similar electric hand drying products. Electric hand driers clearly have a larger up-front cost when compared to paper towels, but they also can cost a lot to keep running. If you are constantly using an electric hand drier in your bathrooms then this will ultimately negatively affect your electricity bill, but that is not all. As is the norm with a lot of electronic products, as time passes electric hand driers will go wrong and break. You may have to end up replacing your drier which will double the initial cost of purchase as you have now had to buy two.
With a washroom paper towel dispenser, the only way that they could possibly break is if someone puts a lot of effort into intentionally smashing them. Paper towels are a cheaper, longer-lasting solution. Our range of paper towel dispensers has been designed and manufactured with long-lasting quality in mind. Simply keep them stocked up with paper towels and marvel at the lost term hand drying capabilities they provide.
They are more hygienic
Paper towels are a much, much more hygienic methods of cleaning and drying your hands. The single-use towel means that it will only be touched with your hands so any germs that you have on your hands will instantly be placed into the bin. Harmful bacteria are more likely to pass from wet skin than dry skin, so effectively drying your hands is imperative for keeping safe.
Whilst electric hand driers dry your hands, they also blow any potentially harmful germs on your skin into the atmosphere. Bacteria that can survive in the air can then land on surfaces or even other people and if they enter a body they can create disease and illness. Hand towels can remove these bugs whilst drying. They will trap them in the towel itself, all the way to the bin.

Can make your skin cleaner than driers
As previously mentioned, the actual rubbing process of drying your hands with paper towels can release bacteria from your skin that otherwise would have been missed. Once you have effectively washed your hands correctly, using a paper towel can still remove even more germs, greatly increasing overall hand cleanliness.
Studies conducted by Westminster University and the World Health Organisation have suggested that using bathroom paper towel dispensers can spread up to 1300 times less bacteria than hand dryers. Not only do driers spread bacteria through the air, but they can also create a contact point that is used by a large number of people. If you have to push a button with a wet hand to start a hand drier then so does everyone else, these can be hotbeds for bugs. Washroom paper towel dispensers are grip and rip, so you are never touching a surface that has been touched by every operator before you.
Convenient & Versatile
When you use a hand dryer, you know what you are getting. With paper towels, the uses are endless. The versatility that you can get from using bathroom paper towel dispensers greatly exceeds the uses of hand driers. Paper towels are not just simply used for drying your hands.
They can be used to mop up spillages, as napkins, to clean up surfaces or to wrap up your friends to create a mummy for Halloween. As well as this, the convenience of simply grabbing a paper towel and drying your hands saves having to stand at a hand drier for extended periods of time. Speaking of which…

Perfect For Fast-Paced Environments
Paper towels are ideal for washrooms and bathrooms that see a lot of footfall. Having to cue for a hand drier whilst your hands are dripping wet is incredibly annoying, let alone hazardous. Not only do the hand driers spread bacteria through the air, but the water also that drips from your hands onto the floor is perfect for creating dangerous slip hazards. With bathroom paper towel dispensers, users can simply grab the towel they need and step aside to dry their hands before throwing them into any bin. The only thing that you will need to do is ensure that you keep stocks of paper towels high.
