Assignment 8A- Solving The Problem

Assignment 8A- Solving The Problem

  • My product has to do with the lack of paper towel given on the first swipe of an automatic paper towel dispenser in public bathrooms.
  • I want to create an affordable paper towel dispenser that would give the perfect amount of paper towel in order to optimally dry hands in an efficient manner.
  • This paper towel dispenser would also include a faster dispense time as well as thicker paper towels to absorb water better.
  • I have considered just streamlining hand dryers for purposes of being environmentally friendly, but this would not work in the case of their being a large spill or someone getting a stain on their shirt etc.
  • This product would be mass produced in order to replace all standing paper towel dispensers already in place.

  1. Hello! I like the idea where the paper dispenser would be much quicker and more absorbent. Some of these paper roles in school buildings or businesses use some of the cheapest paper they can find. It seems the quantity is much greater a priority then quality. There could be a solution to increase the absorbent of paper while decreasing the amount of paper used. This would benefit the environment and people at the same time.

  2. Hey Delaney!

    I definitely love your created product. I think that the community would definitely benefit from this. It will cause less frustration for those who see this unmet me like myself. In addition to that, it will limit the amount of time it takes for us to dry our hands. I like how you considered streamlining the hand dryers but immediately saw the problem it would have.

  3. Hi Delaney,
    I think you created a very good solution for this need. It seems to me that it should be an easy fix, but for some reason the problem still exists in many places. I think your solution makes it better for everyone, and for the environment as well. I like that you mentioned the hand dryers, because I find them to be pretty ineffective. Paper towel dispensers are the best way to dry your hands, but even they need some improvements.
