Portable Protection

Nothing is worse than going to an outdoor event, and then realizing you have to use the restroom facilities. The portable restrooms leave little to be desired in any environment, and there is a certain societal expectation regarding portable restrooms in general. However, there is a new trend, and it is starting to catch on fast….

Remember when your mother would tell you to wash your hands? The times seem to be universal: before you eat, after you eat, and after you use the restroom. Diseases and germs have started to seep into every environment with new strands of flu popping up all over the nation. Companies that install, and own, portable restrooms are starting to take notice.

The first hand sanitizer system that was placed into a portable restroom was in 1987. Since then, the trend has slowly been on the rise. Now, with the advent of waterless systems, and wall mounted sanitizers, the excuses are losing weight in communities all over the nation. The hand sanitation stations started to gain focus when people started having more and more special events that involved fund raising, catering, and entertainment. Venues for events became more original and they started to include parks, bridges, fields, and various other random locations. Hand washing suddenly became a priority. Owners had to figure out a way to let people use the facilities, clean their hands, and then eat their food without falling ill.


Now, the request for hand sanitizing stations is a demand. There has to be a way for companies to ensure their part of safety for their customers. There are several ways to ensure that this gets done and there are also various methods out there that can help you install proper systems. However, from a product end, here is what is out there:


  1. Hand Sanitizing Stand- a moveable and highly visible product that can hold a touch-free dispenser and refill. The refills and dispensers are sold individually.

  2. TFX Touch Free Dispensers- these dispensers are sold individually and come with a three year guarantee. These dispensers carry a C size battery.

  3. Space Saver Dispensers- dispensers that save space and are cost efficient.
  4. NXT Maximum Capacity Dispensers- holds a high volume of sanitizer which makes it cost efficient as well as requires less refills.

Be creative and find a way to ensure that your product is healthy for everyone. Make sure that there is hand sanitizer that is available to everyone at anytime and at least provide the option for others to protect themselves from bacteria and germs. The waterless systems make it easy to distribute, easy to buy, easy to provide, and most of all easy to use.
