New touchless dispensing technology can have a powerful positive impact on a building's environmental performance and the health and safety of the building's occupants. New proposed LEED prerequisites will recommend replacing multifold sanitary hand-towel dispensers with paper dispensed from large rolls. With touchless dispensers, people can quickly and thoroughly dry their clean hands without touching a surface that others have touched. At the same time, waste is reduced by at least 34 percent and up to 95 percent with some highly efficient coreless systems. This course explains how the newest touchless dispensers for paper towels, tissue, soap and other essential products make washrooms a healthy, efficient, environmentally sound part of the building.
