Kimberly-Clark Professional Aims to Make Your Restrooms as Smart as the Rest of Your Building

ISSA/INTERCLEAN attendees will be able to experience Onvation Technology first-hand at the Kimberly-Clark Booth, 2849. "Through virtual reality goggles, a 360° video and a unique environment within the booth, they will be able to see exactly how this smart restroom management system works," Sanchez added.

Onvation Technology delivers and relays information through a web-based dashboard that's accessible 24/7.

Here's how it works:

• Connected sensors are embedded into proprietary towel, tissue, soap dispensers and door counters.
• Real-time data is sent to the cloud over a secure network.
• Automatic text messages alert building managers to product and battery levels, usage, jams and overall traffic.
• Remote confirmation is delivered when an issue has been resolved.

The system enables building managers to reallocate resources to enhance productivity. "Instead of treating all restrooms equally, managers can assign staff to the areas that actually need service," Sanchez said.

The system also can be used to make informed decisions about budgeting, planning and scheduling, so building managers can be proactive rather than reactive.

"Seventy-three percent of tenants say a bad restroom signals poor management," Sanchez added. "When you consider that the typical office worker visits the restroom three to four times a day, that's more than 1.1 million annual opportunities to impress or disappoint. With Onvation Technology, building managers can make sure their restrooms measure up to the rest of their properties."
