Our focus on the commercial washroom marketplace ensures that, no matter the budget or washroom style, we can supply a hand soap dispenser that looks and acts the part. You can see more details on the different styles and types of hand soap dispensers we have on offer in our range below:

Automatic Soap Dispensers

Automatic Soap Dispensers do exactly what they say on the tin; rather than a pump mechanism to release the soap, an automatic hand soap dispenser uses in-built sensors that detect infrared energy and release a designated amount of soap into the user’s hands beneath it. The fact that the user will never have to touch the soap dispenser is what makes automatic soap dispensers one of the most hygienic options for your washroom or bathroom.

Counter-Mounted Soap Dispensers

Counter Mounted Soap Dispensers are another style of soap dispenser in our range; ideal for use with vanity units and countertop wash areas. Simple to use and easy to refill, these soap dispensers are a popular choice across a variety of washroom environments and give your bathroom facilities a minimalist, refined look. These soap dispensers are available in a variety of finishes including luxury satin and polished stainless steel to suit your preference.

Wall-Mounted Soap Dispensers

Easy to install and maintain, Wall-Mounted Soap Dispensers are among our most popular (and best) choices for soap dispensers in washroom and bathroom environments. Wall-mounted soap dispensers come in different styles and are sleek and organised, enhancing your washroom’s design and making them easier to clean by being out of the way. Wall-mounted dispensers are typically installed right above the basin, making them as convenient as possible for users.

Hand Soap Dispenser FAQs

How does a Soap Dispenser work?

Soap dispensers are designed to be easy to use to maintain a clean, hygienic environment, but they can operate differently depending on the type you have. For example, many hand soap dispensers require the user to press a button or pump to dispense a standard amount of soap. Automatic soap dispensers, on the other hand, are touch-free and have sensors that detect users' hands; when a hand is detected, soap is released. 

How to open up a Soap Dispenser?

Most commercial hand soap dispensers open the same way; there should be a press release button on the rear underside of the dispenser. This will ease the cover forward and allow you to check and/replace the inner soap bag.

How to unclog a Soap Dispenser?

If the pump for a lotion, shampoo, or liquid soap dispenser stops working, it's usually just clogged in the pump mechanism. Remove the lid to your soap, lotion, or skin care product, and soak the pump in hot water. Allow the clog to soften up, then pump some hot water through the pump. This should help fix your hand soap dispenser.

How to refill Hand Soap Dispenser

Firstly, you’ll need to locate the lever (which is often on the underside of the hand soap dispenser) and push it whilst pulling the top of the dispenser towards you until it comes off. You’ll then need to remove the empty plastic soap bag from the nozzle and replace it with a full soap bag, ensuring the nozzle is securely attached to the new bag. Finally, you can close the dispenser by pushing it back in place (you should hear a click when it is secure). To make sure it is working correctly, practice using it yourself.

Where to place Soap Dispenser on a Sink

Whether they are countertop or wall-mounted soap dispensers, it’s important for commercial soap dispensers to be placed conveniently to allow for smooth traffic flow. Ideally, hand soap dispensers should be above or beside the basins so they are visible and within reach of the sink, preventing users from having to walk around the bathroom or from struggling to find the soap. 

Are Soap Dispensers worth it?

Not only are they essential for promoting good hygiene, but a soap dispenser will make an excellent addition to any commercial washroom, as it helps create a more uniform look and lets you pick the style that best suits your bathroom. Soap dispensers can be easily refilled and conveniently placed above or beside basins.
