Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Ancoats Community Hub in Manchester needed to replace their ageing, unreliable washroom dispensers. They were looking for a solution that was not only more hygienic but also helped control the cost of consumables in their busy facility.
"We were going through soap like there was no tomorrow. The Rubbermaid dispensers were a revelation. Refilling is simple, the little window means we're never caught short, and the controlled dose has slashed our soap usage. It just works."
Robert Green – Facilities Manager
After installing the Rubbermaid FN397 dispensers, the hub reported a 60% reduction in monthly soap expenditure and staff spent 30 minutes less per week on washroom checks and refills.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Choose a smooth, clean, and dry wall surface at a comfortable height for users.
- For best results, use the included screws and wall plugs for a secure, permanent fit.
- Ensure there is enough clearance below the dispenser for hands and above it for easy refilling.
- Once mounted, simply open the cover and click the 800ml soap pouch into place.
Keeping It Going
- Regularly wipe the exterior of the wall mounted liquid soap dispenser with a soft, damp cloth.
- Check the soap level through the viewing window as part of your daily or weekly cleaning routine.
- Ensure the nozzle remains free of dried soap to prevent blockages and ensure a clean spray.
- When empty, the old pouch unclicks easily, and a new one can be inserted in seconds.

It's like having a tiny, invisible security guard protecting the main point of contact. This feature doesn't just dispense soap; it actively helps to break the chain of cross-contamination from one person's hands to the next, making your washroom that little bit safer for everyone.
