Tb-44 CAPACITIES OF BOBRICK FOLDED PAPER TOWEL DISPENSERS

CAPACITIES OF BOBRICK FOLDED PAPER TOWEL DISPENSERS
A top-quality, two-ply towel, heavily creped and embossed, will yield relatively few towels to the cabinet inch; a
hard finished, single-ply towel will yield perhaps twice as many. For description of standard towel folds, see
TB-6. The quality of towel that is appropriate for upscale offices, department stores, restaurants, and hotels will
require more cabinet space than lower quality towels suitable for a building where cost of supplies is paramount,
assuming the same washroom traffic and frequency of servicing.

All dispenser capacities in Bobrick catalogs are averages for middle-of-the-road quality and are guidelines only,
based on proper loading of paper towels. Before it is put into the cabinet, a towel stack should be unbanded,
riffled and loosened. One inch of clear space should be left at the top of the stack. Tightly packed paper towels
cause difficult dispensing and torn towels.

See attached Bulletin for chart of dispenser capacities.
