Hands-free toilet paper dispenser! Who would have thought?
Kimberly-Clark introduced a new, exclusive, first-ever automatic dispenser for toilet paper and paper towels to the venerable public. Speaking about JRT * Electronic Coreless (this is how the miracle of “toilet electronics” was called), Richard Thorn, director of the North American office of Kimberly-Clark, said: “The digital revolution has reached the bathrooms”.
Works "sorting gadget" in exactly the same principle as the automatic hand dryer. You bring your hand to the sensor and get a certain amount of toilet paper. This process in Kimberly-Clark is called "controlled issuance." The length of the "canvas" can be changed. You just need to program the machine for issuing 16 (short flap), 20 (medium) and 24 (long) inches of paper. However, it will not be possible to reprogram the distributor on the go: the administration of a public toilet (bar, restaurant, hotel) will be in charge of this.
You can laugh out loud and say that "the bourgeois have already begun to eat." But not everything is so simple. At Kimberly-Clark, everyone is quite serious and is looking forward to making big profits from the JRT * Electronic Coreless release. First, they thought up there that an automatic dispenser reduces the total consumption of paper by at least 20% (and therefore all establishments should immediately purchase the device in batches). How they came to this conclusion is not clear to me personally. After all, having received the first roll for use, nothing prevents to immediately hold the hand under the sensor again and get the second one. And so on to infinity. Is there any timer with a delay, say, per minute, in this very JRT *? However, on this subject in a press release Kimberly-Clark said nothing. Another “marketing” move of the company is increased attention to people with disabilities. The manufacturer declares that with the “correct installation” of the distributor, it is quite possible to wipe it (forgive the sinner, but otherwise you cannot tell) with one hand. And this is fully consistent with the Federal Act of the Disabled Americans (ADA).
Damn it, honestly. But ... have you ever tried in the toilet of a bar (or a cinema - it is not essential) to pull out paper towels with wet (if there is no dryer) after washing with your hands? You will wet the part, you will part a part - these are not jokes. And then, a slight movement of the hand, and please: get half a meter of selected, soft, smelling strawberries or lemon paper! Beauty.
