Real-world experience: Directorate for Construction of the Municipality of Sopot
Our clients from the Directorate for Construction of the Municipality of Sopot faced excessive soap consumption and insufficiently controlled dispensing in public restrooms, which resulted in frequent refills and increased maintenance costs.
After analyzing the existing situation, they installed 1l manual foam soap dispensers in the Blanc color throughout all restrooms.
The results became visible quickly thanks to the controlled foam dispensing system:
- soap consumption decreased by approximately 35–40%
- the number of soap refill interventions decreased by 50%
The maintenance staff emphasized that their work became more organized and efficient because the dispensers are reliable and easy to use without additional technical requirements.
In addition to the functional benefits, the hygiene standard in the facilities also improved because users only come into contact with the activated foam dispensing system. The management particularly highlighted their satisfaction with the combination of cost efficiency, easy maintenance, and the dispenser’s modern design.
