Fox Fold and their design partner have reimagined a product system that’s been the same for over 100 years, to create a new sheet-based tissue dispenser system with the mission of having a global positive impact on the planet.
The Fox Fold Wall Mount Dispenser and Tabletop Dispenser deliver impact in terms of Product Types, Decor-driven design, Tissue Material, Tissue Format, Materiality, and Logistics.
Developing these ground up allowed the team to innovate and not be constrained by legacy, using purposeful materials and proportions, delivering an optimal experience for hotel guests and facilities teams.
Hotels buy 2x the toilet paper they need because rolls are replaced before the next guest, creating waste and billions in sunk costs. A hotel with 500 rooms buys 90,000 rolls per year, and throws away nearly half as they can’t be recycled. Additionally rolls are hollow cylinders of air, making them cumbersome to transport and store.
To address this, we developed a first-in-first-out wall-mounted toilet paper solution that removes unnecessary waste while improving the guest experience. By replacing the roll with a folded tissue format, our patent-pending system lowers costs by up to 50%, reduces waste, and delivers a perfect tissue every time.
In addition to the wall mounted product we designed a beautiful countertop facial tissue dispenser, which reduces waste by eliminating tissue boxes being disposed of when a box runs low. We have built our own tissue paper converting line to fold bamboo paper, fully paper wrapped, in the most efficient stack size.
Our approach is to offer hotels and guests uncompromised products, in a decor-driven format that visually feels natural in a hotel and can be tailored to reflect a brand’s aesthetic.
