Men enter a public restroom: use a urinal, wash and dry their hands, then exit. Fast, safe, touch-less. Sensor detection enables urinals to flush. Positioning hands in place distributes soap, paper towels, and activates the faucet and hand dryer.
To ensure public safety, enhance systems with touch-less technology. Using sensor detection to prevent bacterial transfers help achieve tasks comfortably.
