COVER STORY
Katrin Inclusive range goes some way to resolving some of these.”
SPECIAL CONSIDERATION Features of the range that help address these issues include:
• The dispensers are obviously solidly fixed onto a wall/unit.
• For those with restricted visibility, strong contrasting colours make the dispensers easier to see, especially when they are mounted on a wall of the same colour.
• Use of large ‘push faces’ eliminates the need to turn ‘wheels’ to feed paper – something which as explained, can be difficult for some users.
• For all dispensers, the paper is very easy to remove, and can be pulled out with one hand.
• Katrin Inclusive Dispensers also use braille text on all of the ‘push faces’ to further help visually impaired users in their everyday life.
• Dispensers that open upwards make it much easier for people of all heights to fill and maintain them.
• The full-face push surfaces make the dispensers effortless for users of any age to operate and simple graphical signage clearly shows how the dispensers should be used and maintained.
• The dispensers also come with fitting guidance, including recommended heights to accommodate wheelchair users in disability washrooms.
FUNCTIONAL, ETHICAL AND
ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND The dispensers were launched late in 2015, so what has the response been? Mark explained: “Our customers have welcomed this new range, and the new functionality. Distributors

tell us that it gives the dispensers a real advantage over other ranges, and it supports Corporate Social Responsibility commitments, both for them and their customers.”
COST-IN-USE Not only are they inclusive, functional and environmentally-friendly, but the dispensers also help control labour costs, reduce usage and eliminate waste. The clear back plates make installation quick and simple, and the clear sides mean that staff can easily see when they need refilling. Mark added: “The high capacity of the devices and stub roll functionality, combined with hygienic, self presenting paper products, delivered in a measured and controlled way, make choosing Katrin a sustainable and responsible choice from every angle.”
RIGOROUSLY TESTED Even the smallest details of the Katrin Inclusive range have been designed and tested to ensure easy and safe usage for everyone. To make sure that the dispensers were ready for the challenges of real life, they have gone through extensive tests and have received the Bureau Veritas Certificate.
The dispensers have even tested for visual appeal. In comparison to other dispensers in the marketplace, the vast majority of the test participants (74%) preferred the design of Katrin Inclusive Dispensers to other products in the market place.
Mark concluded: “With the Katrin Inclusive range, we have created elegant dispensers that will fit with any washroom ambience, and which users have already told us they prefer. More than this, we have taken the time to listen to all users, and from their feedback, create simple but effective design considerations that will have a positive impact for everyone.”
