ATLANTA—March 16, 2022—In direct response to the food processing industry’s need for a hygienic, food-safe, water-resistant paper towel dispenser, GP PRO today introduces the automated paper towel dispenser certified by HACCP International.

With its touch-free, one-at-a-time towel dispensing design, the enMotion® 10” Automated Touchless Water-Resistant Paper Towel Dispenser helps reduce the risk of cross contamination during food processing and hand washing, and helps mitigate water penetration during high-pressure wet cleaning and its associated risk of bacteria growth.

“COVID put a spotlight on food processors and their adherence to USDA and FDA risk-mitigation policies, and that, in turn, exposed a void in the industry’s access to food-safe paper towel dispensers,” said Julie Howard, vice president and general manager of GP PRO’s towel, skin care and air care categories. “I’m incredibly proud of our team at GP PRO for designing and bringing to market a differentiated solution that not only helps these essential businesses elevate food safety and hygiene but also operational efficiency and waste reduction.”

Supporting her claims, Howard pointed to the company’s proprietary research, which found the enMotion dispenser helps reduce waste by 30% versus standard folded towels. That research also showed that 90% of customers said the enMotion dispenser reduces how frequently they need to replenish paper towels. In addition, with its extended battery life, proven 99.9% jam-free operation, and lifetime guarantee, the enMotion® 10” Automated Touchless Water-Resistant Paper Towel Dispenser is a valuable solution to help ensure a dry paper towel is within reach when needed.

HACCP International certification is an international recognition awarded to non-food products, materials and services that meet a stringent list of 10 food safety criteria that reduce the risk of food contamination within the food processing industry.
