Tork announced a new compressed hand towel option for the Tork Xpress® Multifold hand towel system that is 50% compressed1, enabling dispensers to hold twice as many towels to serve twice as many customers before requiring a refill2. Businesses benefit from reduced storage needs and spending less time maintaining their facilities. In the manufacturing process, unique compression technology reduces the amount of air in the hand towel bundle, effectively compacting the towel bundles and resulting in reduced packaging material by up to 27%1. Transport vehicles can then fit almost twice as many compressed towel bundles4 per truck, contributing to reduced carbon emissions. Businesses can also store double the amount of paper towels, optimizing the capacity of both their storage and existing Tork Xpress hand towel dispensers. Compressed towels offer the same quality Tork customers are accustomed to.
