The New Wave of Touchless Restrooms

If you've ever visited the bathroom at an airport or other public space lately, chances are you've encountered a touchless faucet or automatic hand dryer. But did you know that touchless restroom amenities aren’t only in exclusive or expensive establishments anymore? They're becoming increasingly common in all kinds of places, from restaurants and hotels to office buildings and even schools. In this post we'll take a look at why touchless bathrooms are gaining popularity, what they offer that traditional public restrooms don't, and how they promote better public hygiene. 

Types Of Touchless Bathroom Amenities

  • Touchless faucets are the most common type of touchless bathroom amenity. A sensor will activate a sensor inside the faucet, which turns on when it detects movement in front of it. This allows you to turn off and on your water without actually touching anything.

  • Touchless hand dryers are also common in public facilities like hospitals and airports. These are wall-mounted and can have either a hands-in or hands-under design, and they have sensors that detect when your hands enter their range of motion. The dryer then activates without any need for physical contact with buttons or knobs.

  • Touchless towel dispensers work similarly to electric hand dryers for bathrooms—they use infrared sensors to detect when someone approaches the dispenser, so they can activate at just the right time and dispense only one paper towel at a time (instead of multiple towels).

  • Soap dispensers also come in two varieties: automatic soap dispenser or touch-activated soap dispenser (which is just like a regular soap pump). Automatic soap dispensers, again like auto hand dryers, will pump a set amount of liquid soap onto the hands when motion is detected by the sensor.

The Growing Trend Of Touchless Restrooms

Touchless restrooms are becoming more popular for a number of reasons. Let’s take a closer look at why appliances like automated hand dryers are becoming increasingly popular in not only Australia but the entire world. 

They're More Hygienic

A major benefit of touchless restrooms is that they are more hygienic than traditional bathrooms.

Touchless faucets and automatic hand dryers are great ways to prevent the spread of germs and bacteria, which can be harmful to both you and the environment. Touchless faucets are also easier to clean because they do not have any crevices or cracks where dirt and grime can accumulate. Touchless toilets prevent the spread of germs, which is important when you consider that a public bathroom may be used up to 200 times per day. 

They Save Money And Energy

In a world where the average person uses a couple hundred paper towels a year, touchless restrooms can save businesses money and energy. Touchless restroom systems use very little water to operate, and simply require fresh air to dry hands. The technology also reduces paper waste by eliminating hand drying completely—as opposed to traditional hand dryers, which require users to use multiple sheets of paper towel each time they wash their hands.

In addition to saving money on cleaning supplies and reducing paper waste, touchless restrooms can help your business cut down on energy costs as well. Traditional hand dryers use more electricity than other alternatives for drying hands; plus, the heat from these appliances can quickly spread germs throughout your facility if not properly maintained (or even if it is!). By installing an automated system instead of using traditional hand dryers in your restrooms or break rooms, you’ll be able to save money while avoiding potential health issues caused by improper hygiene practices among employees or customers alike!

They’re More Accessible Now

Touchless restrooms are no longer a luxury reserved only for high-end restaurants, hotels and office buildings. They're becoming more common in all kinds of public spaces. While still expensive to install, touchless faucets are being used increasingly as part of a trend toward automated and more hygienic restrooms. Plus, more budget-friendly options are emerging in the market due to the increased demand and competition.

They are Efficient and Eye Catching

​​In addition to being sanitary, touchless features also give off an air of sleekness and modernity that can be pleasing to customers who visit your business or office building; many people associate these design elements with luxury. But that isn’t merely for aesthetics — people with physical impairments are more likely to have ease of use with automatic appliances in public spaces which makes it a win-win for everyone.

The touchless restroom revolution is here, and it's time to embrace it. The benefits of these systems are clear, whether you're talking about cost savings and lower maintenance costs or improved hygiene and convenience. There's no doubt that they'll become even more popular in the years ahead as more people see how much they can improve the overall user experience at their facilities.
