Furnitubes launches touch-free sanitiser dispenser for busy areas
As good hand hygiene remains critical in the prevention and control of Covid-19, UK-based street furniture manufacturer Furnitubes has launched a range of touch-free sanitiser dispensers to help reduce the risk of contamination.
During lockdown, Furnitubes adapted its Zenith® bollard to accommodate large refillable hand sanitiser bottles. The company has since developed the range to include a kids’ range in bright colours and smaller height size.
Catherine Barratt, Managing Director at Furnitubes, said: “With businesses, retailers, restaurants and schools re-opening but the threat of a second wave very real, we wanted to create a sanitiser dispenser that would become a smart, permanent solution for public places with high footfall like offices, schools, shopping centres, restaurants and residents’ apartments.”
The Zenith hand sanitiser dispenser is foot-pedal operated so there is no-hand contact at all, minimising the risk of contamination. It’s 100% mechanical so there are no battery or power requirements, meaning that in the long run it is cheaper and better for the environment than the sensor-alternatives. It is also weather-proof so ideal for outdoor areas like delivery bays and public transport where there may be no hand-washing stations.
Barratt added: “We’re glad we can help businesses re-open and bring staff back safely.
“We’re really proud of our engineers who have designed a range of functional, yet beautiful and durable, products. They’ve given a lot of thought to the engineering too, so that the product is fully assembled. You take it out the box, fill the supplied refillable bottle with anti-virus gel, and you’re good to go.”
The Zenith hand sanitiser dispenser is part of a wider range of street furniture, including benches, picnic tables, cycle stands, litter bins and bollards. It can be fixed to the ground, for extra safety, in high footfall areas.
