Feature | The Top Five Reasons Your Facility Needs Touch-Free Dispensers
GOJO’s LTX touch-free dispensers and floor stands are perfect for high-traffic areas throughout your facility; entrances, lobbies, common rooms, dining areas and even hallways. Our floor stand kits are available with accessory basket attachments that hold masks, tissues and gloves for added germ protection.

If your facility uses pumps or manual dispensers for your hand hygiene products rather than touch-free models, we have five reasons you might want to reconsider your choice.

Better Compliance
A study published in the American Journal of Critical Care found that touch-free dispensers are used significantly more often by staff than manual dispensers when both options are made available (4.42 times per hour vs. 3.33 times per hour for manual dispensers).1 Purell® Advanced Hand Sanitizer Foam kills more than 99.99% of most common germs that may cause illness and is the most trusted and used brand by hospitals. It outperforms other hand sanitizers ounce for ounce and is clinically proven to improve skin condition and hydration.

Reduced Contamination
There is less contact contamination with touch-free dispensers, helping to halt the spread of germs.

Less Waste
Touch-free dispensers automatically dispense the exact amount of product needed to effectively cleanse or sanitize hands, therefore less product is wasted. Additionally, each refill features a SMARTFLEX™ bottle design that uses 30% less material than High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and is made from recyclable plastic.

Smart Technology
New dispenser technology allows units to use a minimal amount of energy per actuation, eliminating the need to change batteries during the life of the dispensers in most instances.

Saved Space
Because the dispensers can be mounted on walls or placed on floor stands, valuable counter space is saved throughout the facility.
