For example, the Tork Skincare Dispenser requires a particularly low push force and has been certified as ‘Easy to Use’ by the Swedish Rheumatism Association. And the Tork Folded Toilet Paper Dispenser allows the resident to access toilet tissue with one hand and with no tearing required, since the paper is given out in individual sheets.
