Start with placement and traffic
Map the entrances, shared equipment, amenity spaces and customer areas where people naturally pause. A busy lobby may call for a visible, high-capacity station, while a boardroom corridor may need a smaller footprint.
Compare capacity with service frequency
A larger container can reduce refill visits, but only when it suits the space and product format. Estimate daily use, storage and the frequency of regular rounds before committing to a size.
Treat finish as part of the environment
Stainless, black and white stations each read differently in a facility. Aligning the finish with nearby fixtures helps the dispenser feel intentional instead of temporary.
Confirm refill compatibility
A dispenser and wipe refill need to work as one system. Check roll or bag dimensions, dispensing path and the intended application before placing a volume order.
Use signage to remove uncertainty
Simple, visible instructions help occupants understand what the station is for and can support more consistent use across a portfolio.
