An Automatic Advantage

Yes, there are alternatives to Pūrleve™. And no, they aren't pretty. Messy handles moistened with liquid sprays. Awkward (yet still unsanitary) arm hooks that challenge users' dexterity, balance and overall motor skills before permitting exit. Expensive difficult-to-install and unreliable automated doors that often result in delayed exits and increased frustration. And the ever-popular fistful of extra hand towels used to grab the exit handle—which, of course, inevitably ends up forming an unsightly, wet and dirty pile on the restroom floor or spilling out of an overflowing garbage can. The alternatives are generally expensive, wasteful, difficult to install or use… or all of the above.

Conversely, Pūrleve provides an inexpensive, reliable automatic hygienic solution that is cost effective, provides thousands of uses before refilling, is simple to install and offers a truly “Green” solution, using no paper and producing almost zero waste.
