Soap Dispensers

Wall-mounted and standalone commercial hand soap dispenser options

Whether your office has a large multi-stall bathroom or a small residential-style restroom, it's crucial to make the most of the available space. Choosing the right soap pump is a big part of proper space utilization. If there's plenty of sink space or a bathroom does not get enough use to warrant a wall-mounted commercial hand soap dispenser, refillable standalone pumps are a convenient option. They can be moved between sinks, accommodate any type of liquid hand soap, and offer aesthetic appeal to a restroom.

Consider a wall-mounted dispenser if space is limited and you also need to include a supply closet containing toilet paper and other bathroom necessities in the room. It leaves the sink clear for paper towels or spray aerosols. Dispenser units are usually easy to fit, since they come with the mounting screws necessary for installation. They usually accommodate large refills, making them optimal for high-traffic restrooms.

Different types of commercial soap dispenser refills

While selecting a commercial soap dispenser, consider the types of soap that work in each pump. If employees prefer a specific scent, make sure the pump you choose supports that type of refill. Soap refills come in a wide range of scents, and like other cleaning supplies, they are often available in bulk. Perfumes include:

• Cucumber melon
• Milk and honey
• Berry
• Plum
• Cranberry
• Coconut

Different ways to activate each hand soap dispenser

A major factor in choosing a hand soap dispenser is how people will use it. Wall-mounted options are either push or motion activated. Push-activated models do require direct contact, which increases the risk of spreading germs. However, they are simple to maintain. Motion-activated options respond when people wave a hand in front of or below the pump. Users never have to touch the pump, so germs are less likely to spread. Standalone pumps are typically activated by touch, although there are some standalone models that now use motion activation technology.
