Program Overview — Public / Lobby Restrooms

Public and lobby restrooms influence cleanliness perception more than any other area. A strong program focuses on the four operational outcomes that matter most: sanitation readiness, reliable inventory, cost control, and staff efficiency. When you standardize formats and train staff, you reduce stockouts, jams, odor complaints, and emergency retail purchases.

Where this program is used

  • Hospitality & Food Services: hotel lobbies, restaurant public restrooms
  • Healthcare Facilities: patient/public restrooms, clinics
  • Professional & Business Services: offices, schools, churches
  • Industrial & Construction / Facilities: break areas + public restrooms

Core categories this area pulls from

  • Paper: towels + tissue formats matched to dispensers
  • Chemicals: disinfectants + restroom cleaners
  • Gloves/PPE: safe cleaning and infection prevention routines
  • Liners: odor control + leak prevention (optional add-on)

How you win (purchasing strategy)

  • Choose universal vs proprietary paper systems (avoid “fits but won’t dispense”)
  • Set par levels per restroom and per shift
  • Standardize to fewer SKUs to reduce misloads and training time
  • Bundle paper + dispensers + cleaners as a repeatable program

Buying Guide — Reduce Stockouts, Jams, Waste & Complaints

Public restrooms fail in predictable ways: wrong refill formats, weak par levels, inconsistent cleaning routines, and staff using the wrong products. Use the guide below to stabilize performance and reduce service calls.

1) Match Paper to Dispenser (Universal vs Proprietary)

  • Check inside labels and loading style before ordering
  • Standardize to fewer formats to reduce misloads
  • Use universal fit where possible for multi-location efficiency
  • Use proprietary refills where systems are already installed
Universal Fit Proprietary Fit

2) Set Par Levels (Stop Running Out)

  • Set par per restroom: towel + tissue + soap + sanitizer
  • Build a reorder cadence (daily / weekly / delivery day)
  • Use a single “refill kit” so staff restocks faster
  • Keep backup cases in a controlled closet (reduce shrink)
Improve Reliability

3) Build a Simple Cleaning System

  • Use disinfectants for high-touch points (handles, dispensers, faucets)
  • Use restroom cleaners for fixtures, tile, and floors
  • Use bowl/urinal cleaners for scale and odor sources
  • Train staff to avoid cross-contamination (tools + towels)
Sanitation Readiness

4) Control Costs Without Downgrading Perception

  • Reduce waste using controlled dispensers or formats
  • Standardize SKUs to reduce training and wrong-product use
  • Use high-capacity tissue where change-outs are costly
  • Bundle paper + dispensers + cleaners into a monthly program
Control Costs
Staffing tip: Standardize to one towel format + one tissue format + one soap system per restroom zone. Fewer decisions = faster training and fewer mistakes.

FAQ — Public / Lobby Restrooms

How do I avoid ordering paper that “fits” but doesn’t dispense correctly?

Identify whether your site uses universal or proprietary systems first. Check inside dispenser labels and match refills to that format. Use Universal Fit when possible and Proprietary Fit when systems are installed.

What are the top drivers of restroom complaints?

The most common drivers are empty dispensers, paper jams, odor, and inconsistent cleaning. A program approach (paper + dispensers + cleaners + odor control) solves these together.

How do I set a par level for public restrooms?

Start with traffic, then standardize one towel and one tissue format per zone. Keep enough inventory for your delivery cycle plus a safety buffer (especially for weekends/events). This reduces emergency purchases and staff time.

What should I stock to improve odor control?

Odor control works best with source cleaning (restroom cleaners + bowl/urinal) plus a consistent freshener plan. Pair Restroom Cleaners, Bowl & Urinal, and Air Fresheners.

Where do I go to shop by program instead of by product?

Use Shop by Industry, Shop by Need, and Shop by Challenge to build complete purchasing systems.

Pro Tip: For public restrooms, the fastest ROI comes from standardizing paper + soap systems and locking par levels. Fewer stockouts + fewer jams = fewer complaints and lower labor time.
