New Equipment Digest again honors Vaask permanent hand sanitizer dispenser

Back-to-back Innovation Awards recognize Vaask’s design and technology NOVEMBER 29, 2023 — CLEVELAND — Leading industrial publication New Equipment Digest today honored the Vaask® permanent hand sanitizer dispenser for the second straight year as part of its annual Innovation Awards, praising the device for improving facility operations. The awards recognize “products that fundamentally change their markets, crush limitations of their product class and redefine design possibilities. In other words, products that provide real potential for disruptive change.” Built of cast aluminum and steel, Vaask stands up to the toughest environments and is backed by a 5-year warranty. Its optional online monitoring dashboard tracks all of a facility’s dispensers and alerts staff when it’s time to refill, eliminating the time-consuming chore of checking each individual unit and also ensuring dispensers always stay filled. This technology solves the most common problem with hand sanitizer, which, despite being more essential than ever before, is frequently not used, as a study published in the American Journal of Infection Control earlier this year found 77% of people report dispensers to be empty. Vaask also uses AC power or Power over Ethernet (PoE), so there are never any batteries to change. Built to last, Vaask offers an effective, money-saving hand sanitizing solution that makes hand hygiene desirable. Vaask’s features also include: Click here to learn more about the honor for Vaask.
