In recent years, touch less devices have really become popular throughout the world. Germs can easily spread from one individual to another simply by physically touching objects such as door knobs or hand rails. Touch free paper towel dispensers reduce the transmission of germs and has many other benefits. Automatic paper towel dispensers have a motion sensor installed on them which automatically dispenses paper towels whenever motion is detected in range. This can really help to encourage a sanitary environment in the kitchen or bathroom simply because it eliminates the use of touching and spreading germs. In fact, this is one of the biggest problems with most towel dispensers that require you to pull a lever. You have no idea how many people have touched the same lever, which means that those germs can transfer on to your hands. GROSS!

Another added benefit is that these can also help to reduce waste which is so common with regular folded towels. The dispensers are designed to give out just the right amount of paper towels needed in order to dry your hands. I know what you're thinking "hand dryers are touch free too!" This is correct however, hand dryers have been known to leave bacteria on your hands. Automatic paper towel dispensers are becoming much more available these days. Anyone can purchase them and they are very affordable.

Now that i have explained the benefits of the automatic paper towel dispenser let me explain how it works.

• A motion sensor uses a wavelength such as infrared to detect movement. This movement disrupts the beam. The notion is sent back to the device, signaling an "on" switch to dispense the towels.

• In the front of the paper towel dispenser, the motion sensor picks up the movement of a hand within only a few inches from the paper towel dispenser. The paper towel then automatically rolls out. The energy source that moves the motor in the paper towel dispenser comes from plugins or batteries.

• The automatice paper towel dispenser can be set to issue out specific lengths of paper towel every time its sensor is set off. These settings stop dispensing after a few sheets to help reduce wasted paper and allow the user to wave their hand once to switch the machine on.

A paper towel dispenser is a great gadget to have in your kitchen or bathroom. It's infrared light beam detects motion which makes grabbing a towel to clean your hands an easy task. It conserves paper towels and makes it easier to get one when you need it. You'll save plenty of counter space, too, if you mount them on the wall or underneath the counter.
