by Brianna Crandall — November 23, 2016 — Industry experts agree there are product cost savings when soap dispensers are filled with foam soap instead of liquid soap, says commercial hand hygiene product manufacturer Kutol Products Company. However, the company says there are additional benefits of using foam soap including labor savings, safety advantages, and water conservation.
To address these additional aspects of commercial soap consumption, Kutol has evaluated numerous variables and presented them in a new eGuide: Foam Soap Advantages in Labor, Safety and Water Conservation.
Included in this free eGuide are comparisons of five different types of hand soap dispensers (and the soap dispensed) and how they differ in regards to:
- Steps and ease of the refill process
- “Topping off” capabilities
- Spill possibilities
- Contamination potential
- Increased hand washing compliance
- Water conservation
Dan Renner, director of marketing for Kutol Products Company, points out:
Labor is the single most costly variable in facility maintenance. Installing foam soap dispensers with sealed refill cartridges provide the fastest, easiest, and safest refilling process that can drive significant labor savings, as well as other benefits. This eGuide highlights the savings afforded in labor, safety and water conservation when facilities use foam soap with the appropriate soap dispenser for their needs.
The eGuide also provides an accounting of water savings that foam soap delivers due to a reduction in lather-up and rinse time. As an example, in one month an office building with 150 occupants can conserve approximately 580 gallons of water by using foam soap.
The Foam Soap Advantages in Labor, Safety and Water Conservation eGuide is available as a free download from the Kutol Web site. Additional Kutol eGuides and resources are also available on the site.
