Dispensers maintain standards

RGE Group is a leader in plastic injection moulding and tools and office furniture design. At their headquarters in Cambridgeshire they were plagued by blockages which caused disruption and inconvenience amongst the 150 staff.

The recommendation was that all the washroom dispensing systems should be standardised, creating an attractive and hygienic environment, and that the dispensers were stocked with Bay West flushable 616 tissue which is capable of biodegrading within 19 seconds. This was important because the blockages weren’t due to vandalism, they were caused by this site being serviced by old pipework coupled with the use of a paper that emulsified and then degraded too slowly.

Since the original installation in 2013 the monthly requirement of the services of a specialist drain clearing company has been reduced to zero, with a 15% reduction in waste.
