Soap dispensers make it easy to offer liquid or foam hand soap beside washbasins in a streamlined and economical way. They’re often moisture-resistant, durable and attractive.
These hygienic soap pumps come in many shapes and sizes to complement any sink setup. Whether you prefer a minimalist Scandinavian design or a classic stainless steel pump, there’s a model for you.
Commercial Automatic Dispensers
Unlike manual dispensers that require users to touch them in order to activate the pump, automatic soap dispensers are touch-free and help prevent cross contamination. By using motion sensors or buttons, they dispense soap without any physical contact from the user’s hands, which can help reduce germs and bacteria spread throughout the facility.
Commercial touchless dispensers are also a great choice for public restrooms where it’s important to promote good hygiene practices. With a variety of options available, there’s sure to be one that’s right for your washroom project.
Many of the commercial automatic dispensers in our range are suitable for both liquid soap and hand sanitiser, making them a versatile solution for your facilities. If you’re using them in a high-traffic environment, it may be worth opting for a larger capacity to minimize frequent refilling.
We’ve also included some dispensers that offer smart features to help you manage your soap usage over time. These include adjustable soap quantity selection and the ability to shut the dispenser down temporarily for maintenance purposes. By having access to these features, you can ensure that your dispensers are always working at their best and offering the maximum amount of soap per dispense. This helps to protect your budget and minimize soap waste.
Wall-Mounted Dispensers
Rather than putting a bar of soap on the counter, wall-mounted dispensers declutter your sink area and add a sleek look to your bathroom or kitchen. Oftentimes, these dispensers are locked to prevent theft and feature one-handed operation functionality for ADA compliance.
There are many different designs to choose from when shopping for a commercial automatic soap dispenser. Some feature a rounded base and slender circular brace that wrap around the bottle to secure it to the wall, while others have clean lines and sharp corners. Some even incorporate LEDs to create a fun interacting experience for customers and also function as an indicator that the soap level is low or whether the correct type of soap is being used.
Vintage style is another popular design for a commercial automatic soap dispenser that offers classic, timeless features. Chrome metal and frosted glass combine for a retro look, while polished brass is a stylish option that compliments traditional bathroom fixtures. Some of these dispensers also feature a thin, straight pump nozzle for modern appeal.
Modern or contemporary Soap dispensers are a sleek and elegant addition to any modern themed bathroom. Rectangular soap dispensers are popular, with narrow and tall shapes that seamlessly integrate into a contemporary space. Some of these models use stainless steel for a durable and corrosion-resistant finish, perfect for the high-traffic areas of your business.
Countertop Dispensers
A soap dispenser installed on a sink or countertop replaces the need for a dish soap bottle. They are a great way to keep your kitchen counters organized and sanitary, and they also free up space where you may have kept a bottle of hand soap or bar soap. Some even coordinate with your kitchen faucet for a coordinated look.
While there are many factors to consider when choosing a soap dispenser, the material is often the most important choice. Dispensers can be made of glass, plastic, melamine, resin and ceramic, with some materials being more durable than others. Some even have recycled content. Additionally, some dispensers come in different color stories and finishes that can complement any interior decor.
If you’re shopping for a kitchen sink soap dispenser, it’s important to consider the capacity of the bottle and how easy it will be to refill. Some dispensers can be refilled from the top while others require unscrewing the pump and refilling from below. You’ll want to choose a dispenser with a large container so you won’t have to fill it as frequently.
For a beautiful and functional dispenser that’s also eco-friendly, consider this Eddi dispenser. It combines the looks of a traditional glazed porcelain soap dispenser with a sleek, modern body. It’s dishwasher-safe and a versatile option that works well with most kitchen decor.
Bulk Fill Dispensers
Bulk fill dispensers are common in commercial washrooms and production facilities. They hold a large reservoir of liquid soap, and as the name suggests, they are filled up by opening the lid and pouring in more from larger containers. While these dispensers may be the cheaper alternative, they aren’t always the most hygienic choice.
When the reservoir is opened to refill, washroom germs in the air can contaminate the soap and cause problems for those who are washing their hands. The fecal matter and bacteria that settles on the top of the soap can mix with the new refill, creating pathogenic biofilm that’s difficult to wash off or kill with bleach. This contamination is a significant health risk, and has been linked to respiratory, eye, skin and blood infections – especially for the elderly or young children.
With sealed cartridge hand soap systems, such as those from Hanzl Duroline, the refills are factory-sealed meaning that the product never comes into contact with the environment or other sources of contamination before it’s used to wash hands. They’re also easier to maintain than bulk fill dispensers – refilling is simple, there are no spills and the time needed to re-fill is reduced. Plus, as the soap levels inside are monitored automatically, they’re less likely to run out prematurely. This can save you money on costly replacements.
