Paper Towel dispensers can be grouped by what type of paper towel they dispense, Single Fold, C-Fold or Multifold, and Roll.
Single Fold Dispensers
Usually takes a backseat to the C-Fold and Multifold dispensers. Limited number of models available.
C-Fold and Multifold Dispensers
C-Fold and Multifold dispensers are very popular and seen in many restrooms. They are very versatile because they can use two different types of paper towels and can hold anywhere between 200-800 towels depending on the dispenser and towel type. Can be considered as having "Touch Free" hygienic operation because an individual need only pull down on an exposed towel and does not have to touch any part of the actual dispenser.
Roll Paper Towel Dispensers
Roll Paper Towel dispensers use an internal mechanism to dispense the paper towel to a pre-determined length. They use an 8" or 9" wide roll of paper towels. Some accommodate a stub roll for extended use between maintenance intervals. Depending on the dispenser, the mechanism works as follows:
-
Touch Free: An individual simply pulls the exposed towel till it stops, and then tears it off. The dispenser then dispenses another pre-determined portion of paper towel. The actual dispenser never needs to be touched so it is considered Touch Free.
-
Lever: Pulling or pushing some type of lever dispenses the paper towel.
-
Automatic: A sensor activates a motor driven mechanism that dispenses a pre-determined length of paper towel. Also considered Touch Free.
-
Centerpull: Paper towels are dispensed from the bottom center of the dispenser by simply pulling down on the towel. Towels are perforated for easy tearing. Considered Touch Free.
