Alright, we are not talking about heated toilet paper for your tenants. (Hmm…there is an idea, though.) I included this because Vince Rountree (on the left) from Georgia-Pacific was doing demos for toilet paper and paper towel dispensers. He was dynamic and probably the only person in the world who could make toilet paper interesting. Seriously, he displayed some great solutions for facility managers. Their coreless toilet paper and hands-free, waste-free solutions are some of the best in the industry.
