Tazza Hand Sanitizer 1 400x284 1

SurfaceID bound sleek aesthetics to fresh technology with this sample dispenser made for high traffic locations. Manufactured using an innovative twin sheet thermoforming process, a skeletal structure was created without the need of metal parts or welding. Two versions exist: a wall-mounted unit and a pole-mounted one. Combined with this is the ability to swap out a static ad with an LCD display thus making it an icon in the world of advertising.

The Story Behind the tazza Hand Sanitizer and SurfaceID

Hand sanitizer works best where people actually pass: entrances, lobbies, elevators and corridors. For tazza, SurfaceID designed a sanitizer dispenser for high-traffic locations that does two jobs at once. It puts hand hygiene within reach and carries advertising at eye level.

SurfaceID bound sleek aesthetics to fresh technology. The dispenser is made with an innovative twin-sheet thermoforming process that creates its skeletal structure without metal parts or welding. Its advertising panel can hold a static ad or be swapped for an LCD display.

Strength Without Metal

In twin-sheet thermoforming, two plastic sheets are heated, formed in matching molds and pressed together while still hot, so they fuse into one hollow, double-walled part. The result is a rigid, lightweight structure with no metal frame to weld.

On the Wall or on a Pole

Two versions cover different spaces. A wall-mounted unit sits beside a door or elevator, and a pole-mounted unit can stand in open areas.

Poster or Screen

The tall front panel frames a static ad, or it can be swapped for an LCD display with changing content, turning a hygiene station into an advertising medium.

Every Detail in One Form

The dispensing nozzle with its sensor, and the textured drip tray at the base, are integrated into the same flowing shape, with no visible fasteners or added brackets.
