COVER STORY
INNOVATION AT HEART
Across its wide product range, Katrin, from Metsä Tissue has consistently boasted a commitment to innovation. Here, we hear more about Katrin’s diverse range of innovative products.
Katrin, from Metsä Tissue, offers a wide range of tissue consumables, including hand towels, toilet tissue, wiping products and excellent systems, as well as conventional dispensers. Much more than this, Katrin’s award-winning* products always offer innovation to away-from-home customers.
Katrin looks at away-from-home situations in a different way to most, and more than ‘just tissue’ with solutions to meet the wide and varied functional and sustainable requirements of the many sector environments that it works in.
MAKING LIFE EASIER IN ALL SECTORS The award-winning Katrin Handy Pack is a great solution for the FM and Contract Cleaning environment. The cases are durable and protect the contents from moisture. The packs stack easily (again, enabling larger volumes of product to be transported, saving on the environmental burden of transport vehicles) and the ’carry handles’ make them very easy for staff to hold and transport. In particular, the packs can be effectively used by cleaning staff to distribute products around the building, directly from the packs. They can be easily carried or hooked on to the cleaning cart so staff will be literally able to carry ‘thousands of hand dries all in one hand’ and ensure that there are always hand towels available. More importantly, from an environmental perspective, they will produce less volume of waste than traditional cardboard cases and the waste that is produced is completely recyclable.
FLUSHED WITH SUCCESS Toilet blockages can be costly and inconvenient, and can have a dramatic impact on the business environment. Blockages can occur in vacuum toilet systems, such as those used in transport washrooms, a water saving system as installed in a new build office environment, an old drainage system in city centre restaurants, or whether it is because of mis-use – with children in educational environments being particularly

likely to put washroom products where they shouldn’t be. The paper towels and toilet tissue in the Katrin EasyFlush®
range
disintegrate into much finer particles than other tissue papers, and fast (within 90 seconds). The paper begins to dissolve sooner, and the whole dissolution process takes only about half the time it does with normal paper products. Cost savings are created through a reduction in expensive maintenance jobs. The paper towels are also just the right size to fit in the integrated toilet facilities equipped with fixed dispensers that can be found in travel or retail areas.
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE ‘ON THE GO’ The Katrin Easy Pick is a self dispensing hand towel solution that provides instant access to clean, hygienic hand towels, wherever you are. Ideal for mobile food outlets, paramedics, other medical staff on call, care workers who visit patients at home, people working in confined spaces or very wet environments, dentists, vets, patient rooms, customer waiting areas, school receptions, public transport, private transport, leisure environments, and so on. Easy Picks are a compact, lightweight and easy to carry, and dispense towels that are hypo-allergenically tested and so are kind to hands. The plastic sleeves protect the products from moisture, grease and dirt wherever they are used.
BEING INCLUSIVE MEANS TAKING
EXTRA CARE OF ALL GUESTS The award-winning Katrin Inclusive dispenser range was designed in collaboration with industry experts, as well as a wide variety of customers and end-users right across Europe, and takes into account the needs of a wide selection of users, including children, the elderly and those who are visually impaired, or have physical disabilities.
Strong contrasting colours make the dispensers very easy to see, especially, when they are mounted on a wall of the same colour. Use of large ‘push faces’ eliminates the need to turn
