Tork introduces compressed hand towel bundles for Tork Xpress Multifold range

PHILADELPHIA, PA- Tork announced a new compressed hand towel option for the Tork Xpress^® Multifold hand towel system that is 50% compressed¹, enabling dispensers to hold twice as many towels to serve twice as many customers before requiring a refill². Businesses benefit from reduced storage needs and spending less time maintaining their facilities.

 

In the manufacturing process, unique compression technology reduces the amount of air in the hand towel bundle, effectively compacting the towel bundles and resulting in reduced packaging material by up to 27%¹. Transport vehicles can then fit almost twice as many compressed towel bundles⁴ per truck, contributing to reduced carbon emissions. Businesses can also store double the amount of paper towels, optimizing the capacity of both their storage and existing Tork Xpress hand towel dispensers. Compressed towels offer the same quality Tork customers are accustomed to.

 

“We are continually innovating to help businesses get more from their existing resources and benefit from sustainable hygiene,” said Bénédicte de Croon, Hand Wiping Product Director, Tork. “Businesses today – restaurants, healthcare settings and smaller offices – deeply understand the need for access to hand hygiene. Our solutions, like compressed towels, increase efficiency of both space and staff, requiring fewer refills and helping to ensure towels are available to support hygiene routines.”

 

Tork hygiene products and services aim to meet the needs of all businesses, particularly those with smaller facilities and without dedicated on-site facility managers. Data shows that the Tork Xpress Multifold hand towel system is the most intuitive and easy-to-refill Tork hand towel dispenser³, allowing anyone to easily refill the system without prior training. Although compressed bundles contain more towels¹, the smaller bundles are designed for easier handling during the refill process and employees can carry twice as many hand towels on a cleaning cart¹ – saving them time in transport and refilling dispensers.
