Hi, all--

Posting the below inquiry on behalf of my facilities colleague. If you have any advice from your experience, or research/data that you use to inform your org's choice, we'd much appreciate it. 

Hello All. Since we've reopened, we're learning how many consumables need to be purchased for our four restrooms. We are finding that we are going through almost 2 cases of Z-fold restroom paper towels per week (8000 towels!). This doesn't seem very financially or environmentally sustainable. We are wondering what other facilities have found to be good alternatives. Looking at electric blower dryers, we know they would pay for themselves quickly, however they have some stigma regarding blowing bacteria all around. Additionally, as a children's museum with tiny tots, some kiddos get very scared of the loud noise and blasting wind. Perhaps there are great modern blowers that are quiet and effective, or use ultraviolet light, etc. Thank you!!!

Thanks--
Stephanie
