Jumbo toilet paper dispenser

Jumbo toilet paper dispenser what standard?

There are several standards of toilet paper dispensers for the community and professionals welcoming the public. The jumbo and mini jumbo dispensers are both the most widespread for reasons of cost and simplification of standard . These dispensers are available in stainless steel, epoxy painted metal and recycled plastic.

Jumbo and mini jumbo toilet paper dispenser

The most widespread in the community is the so-called "jumbo" standard which comes in the form of a round dispenser accepting rolls with an external diameter of 270 mm with an internal core of 60 mm.
There is a particular standard which is the Kimberly Clark standard where the inner diameter of the mandrel must be 75 mm. In this case it will be necessary to take rollers whose mandrel is compatible.
The little brother of the Jumbo is the mini jumbo which also exists in a 60 or 75 mm chuck but has an external diameter of 190 mm.
Jumbo or mini jumbo toilet paper is a product found on multiple brands and manufacturers with a wide variety of qualities and sizes.

Comparison of the jumbo dispenser with other dispensers

The small roll toilet paper dispenser

This is the standard small roll that is found in many communities when the use of toilets is individualized and no longer collective.
Example: hotels, clinic rooms or retirement homes, but also individuals.
Please note that these small rolls have less than 130 sheets per roll for the general public compared to 180 or even more than 200 sheets for professional products. So be careful when comparing prices.
Of course, the big disadvantage of this system compared to the jumbo or mini jumbo dispenser is that the cost of the consumable can quickly soar... On the other hand, its undeniable advantage compared to a jumbo dispenser is its compactness, its less "community" design and more high-end paper qualities.

Compact toilet paper dispenser

Lotus has developed a concept where the toilet paper roll no longer has a core but is "harpooned" onto a plastic shaft integrated into the dispenser. This system was taken over by Tork when Tork bought Lotus' professional division. Tork T7 and Tork 8 therefore offer an alternative to the jumbo with this compact toilet paper system.
These dispensers only accept Tork compact rolls but have a very large number of advantages. Much greater autonomy, no waste (mandrel), dispenser with reserve preventing breakage, less storage, easier transport.
In economic comparison, this system will be between a small roll system and a jumbo system which in all cases remains the most economical on the market. On the other hand, it offers the advantage of offering more stylish, less bulky dispensers and higher quality products. In the context of medium or moderate traffic areas, the compact T7 and T8 from Tork remains an advantageous solution.
