Problem What would be the optimal size of a paper towel dispenser for high traffic washrooms? How can competitors? paper be excluded from being refilled into SCA dispensers?
Purpose By performing a thesis study we intend to investigate what changes has to be made to the dispenser for paper towels, to make the handling process easier for cleaning personnel, and also what profits this new product would bring customers of SCA, and thereby strengthen SCA's position on the market.
Method In this thesis different field studies of the flow in high traffic washrooms have been made. We used methods such as semi structured interviews, observations and literature studies to get the information we needed to write this thesis.
In order to receive an understanding for the research field, we have combined literature studies with information searches on the Internet.
Conclusions The developed dispenser both makes the paper proprietary to the dispenser and reduces the refilling frequency remarkable. The dispenser holds 2000 towels and only needs to be refilled once a day, if two dispensers are used in a washroom with 1600 visitors per day. (Less)
