The remaining paper towel level is monitored through the vertical viewing slot on the front panel, allowing staff to quickly check the paper supply without opening the dispenser.

Real-world experience: Civil Registry Office of the Municipality of Žitorađa

Problem:

The Civil Registry Office of the Municipality of Žitorađa issues birth certificates, official records, and other documents to a large number of citizens every day, while the restrooms in the municipal building were equipped with traditional open paper towel holders. Due to the lack of protection, paper towels were often used in greater quantities than necessary, and on several occasions the entire paper supply was deliberately taken from restrooms accessible to visitors.

Solution:

The municipality’s technical department installed 450-sheet stainless steel paper towel dispensers with anti-vandal locking systems in all public restroom facilities:

• A 450-sheet model was installed in restrooms intended for visitors due to the higher daily foot traffic
• In smaller employee restrooms, the 250-sheet model was retained
• All dispensers were locked with a metal key held exclusively by the technical department
• A monthly inspection system was introduced to monitor the paper level through the vertical viewing slot on the front panel, without opening the dispenser

Result:

Within three months after installation:

• Monthly paper towel consumption decreased by approximately 35%
• The number of recorded cases of unauthorized paper removal dropped to zero
• The frequency of technical department interventions caused by empty dispensers decreased by 40%
• Employees reported fewer complaints from citizens about the lack of paper towels in the restrooms during public service hours
