Paper Towel Holder Types

The range of hygiene products used by people has widened over the past few decades. Not least among them are disposable paper towels. But in order to fully use them, you need to take care of a special device - the holder.

Paper towel holders are available in very different designs, so making the choice of the ideal solution for a particular room is not difficult. The advantages of towels, compared with napkins, are that they do not stick to the surface and do not leave small pieces.

First you need to deal with such subtleties:

• type of material;
• fixing method;
• automatic or manual action.

In hardware stores and on the Internet, desktop options are most often offered. To rearrange such holders in the right place is not difficult, moreover, on the wall often there is no comfortable position for hanging. The desktop device will harmoniously stand on the washing machine and on a modest shelf or cabinet.

Another way to place a towel holder is to use a railing. This solution is recommended only for large bathrooms, as in a small space a long metal bar delivers some inconvenience.

Attachments can be hinged with screws and dowels. But if you use the suction cups, then there is no need for drilling the walls, and it also becomes possible to move the holder to a new position in a matter of minutes.

Rolled paper towels are equally well held by the mechanisms of the three basic materials.

Wood products do not perform well in bathrooms.Even the best quality and carefully crafted holders lose their visual appeal in about a year.

Plastic is cheaper and can be painted in a variety of colors. - but this is also rather a temporary solution.

The best option is metal (service life and quality of work is determined by the type of metal).

Black steel, on which a special protective layer has been applied, will lose its valuable qualities over time. Much more practical are the design of polished stainless steel. Even the increased cost is not a valid objection.

The next important point to consider is the type of towels held. Since the bathrooms rarely have a large area, they mostly take the leaf variant. Packs differ from each other in that the towels inside them are stacked differently.

When they are needed often and in large quantities, it is worth focusing on the roll type. In such models, automation measures the length and at the right time gives the command to cut with a knife.

Occasionally there are holders capable of feeding both sheet and rolled towels.The cost of such mechanisms is great, and it is difficult to call them compact.

When choosing a suitable modification, attention should be paid to the design of products.

When contacting Ikea stores (and similar ones), there will be a choice between manual and automatic holders.

The second subspecies is naturally more expensive, but it allows you to:

• provide greater capacity and less often change the roll;
• eliminate direct contact with the paper;
• create an unobtrusive and romantic design;
• increase functionality and organize different working modes.

When it is necessary to guarantee complete hygienic safety, it is worth choosing hermetically closing dispensers. When choosing a dispenser, you should pay attention to whether it is convenient to put on and take out the paper, whether the handle rotates easily. It is also useful to take into account the size and configuration (fasteners included in the standard package). In kitchens, towel holders are often placed under the desk and replace the roll out drawer.
