State-of-the-Art Sanitiser
Vaask is redefining the hand sanitiser experience with its touchless dispenser, a product that blends innovative technology with sleek design to address the shortcomings of traditional sanitiser systems. Designed in response to the pandemic-era frustrations of messy, empty, and wasteful dispensers, Vaask offers a functional, reliable solution that enhances both user experience and maintenance efficiency. The product’s unique approach, centered around technology and sustainability, positions it as a groundbreaking advancement in hygiene.
Vaask’s cutting-edge features include an online monitoring dashboard and app, which provide real-time alerts when the dispenser requires refilling. This ensures that maintenance staff can keep the units functional without the need for manual checks, addressing a major issue in traditional dispensers—emptiness. By keeping sanitiser constantly available, Vaask not only improves hygiene but also promotes frequent use, contributing to overall public health. Its high-capacity refillable tank and reliance on AC power or Power over Ethernet (PoE) eliminate the need for single-use plastic bottles and batteries, significantly reducing environmental waste.
In addition to functionality, Vaask elevates hand sanitising into a visually appealing and seamless experience. Made of durable cast aluminium and steel, the dispenser’s minimalist design fits effortlessly into any environment, whether in a corporate office, retail space, or healthcare setting. It also features an eye-catching LED array, adding a modern aesthetic while guiding users through the hand sanitising process.
What truly sets Vaask apart is its proprietary PalmPilot sensor technology, which offers precision like no other. Unlike traditional infrared sensors, the PalmPilot sensor measures the speed of returning light photons, making it capable of accurately detecting hands of all sizes and skin tones without false triggers. Paired with a high-end stepper motor and peristaltic pump, Vaask dispenses the perfect amount of sanitiser without drips or mess.
Incorporating advanced technology and design, Vaask is not just a sanitiser dispenser but a transformative tool that improves hygiene practices while contributing to a more sustainable and efficient future.
