Toilet facilities used to be designed primarily for practicality, as you know: white tiles, standard sanitary ware, and a bar of soap to wash your hands. It may have looked clean, but little attention was paid to appearance. That has now changed. Architects and companies are increasingly viewing toilets and washrooms as part of the overall experience. And that includes the choice of dispensers. One detail stands out: the rise of the black soap dispenser.
What makes black so attractive?
Black has always had something special in interior design. It is modern, sleek, and neutral at the same time. And it is precisely these qualities that make black soap dispensers so versatile:
- In offices, they complement glass, steel, and wood beautifully and enhance a professional look.
- In hotels and restaurants, they add a touch of elegance without being overpowering.
- In busy public buildings, the neutral color creates a sense of calm and consistency.
A matte black soap dispenser is not only attractive to look at but also has a practical advantage: it looks clean longer. Because fingerprints and stains are barely visible on the matte black finish, they continue to look neat, even with intensive use.
And as already mentioned; choosing a black hand soap dispenser is not just a matter of style. It's also about the impression you leave behind on the visitors of your sanitary facilities. Dispensers are the most frequently touched objects in many buildings. If they fit into a modern and carefully designed interior, this reinforces the feeling that your organization has an eye for detail.
For companies, there are three clear advantages:
Consistency - Black dispensers blend in well with existing interiors and do not disrupt the existing design.
Timelessness - Black does not quickly go out of style ; it remains stylish even as trends change. So, you are making a long-term choice.
Hospitality - Small choices in design show that you care about the experience of visitors and employees.
Sustainability that is visible
At CWS Hygiene, the 'black dispenser story' does not stop with design. Our CWS PureLine EcoBlack line shows that style and sustainability can go hand in hand. The dispensers are made from up to 98% recycled plastic*, sourced from materials such as old keyboards or computer parts. In this way, we give raw materials a second life.
We combine our sustainable black dispensers with environmentally friendly refills, such as soap made from orange peels and sustainable towel rolls, to create a solution that looks good, works well, and is responsible. Suddenly, a black hand soap dispenser represents not only style, but also a tangible contribution to the circular economy. From now on, you don t have to choose between style and sustainability anymore.
