ATLANTA, Oct. 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- GP PRO, a leading global provider of innovative, integrated washroom and food service solutions for commercial facilities, today announced the availability of its new, revolutionary Compact® with ActiveAire™ Tissue Dispenser. This first-of-its-kind product uses state-of-the-art motion sensing technology to neutralize odors at the source, inside the stall, improving the overall away from home washroom experience.

Compact(R) with ActiveAire(TM) Tissue Dispenser uses state-of-the-art motion sensing technology to neutralize odors at the source, inside the stall, improving the overall away-from-home washroom experience.

"GP PRO research shows odor is a primary reason for public restroom dissatisfaction. With the average person spending almost 400 days of their life in a public restroom, this is a serious issue that needs to be managed," said John Strom, senior vice president of marketing for GP PRO. "With so much of our time spent in a public washroom, neutralizing unpleasant odors is critical to offering an elevated experience. The Compact^® with ActiveAire™ Tissue Dispenser was created to help make sure facility managers have products that truly perform."

In addition to creating an elevated user experience in the washroom, this market-disrupting product was also created to be easy for facility managers to maintain in a variety of ways:

On Demand Scent: The scent is motion-activated when entering the stall. In addition, a wave of the hand will provide an extra burst of freshness.
Easy to Maintain Location: By placing the product in the stall instead of mounting it high on a wall, building maintenance doesn't need ladders to change scents or batteries when needed.
Sustaining Release for Ongoing Odor Control: A gentle fan blows air across fragrance refills providing sustained release for 30 days.
Fresh Air: Refills do not contain propellants or added VOCs.
On Trend Fragrance: Six pleasant fragrance options with unique neutralization technology.

"Bad washroom odors can lead people to form opinions about a business' commitment to hygiene and even how much the company cares about customers," said Strom. "The Compact^® with ActiveAire™ Tissue Dispenser will give building maintenance teams the confidence that the odors will be neutralized and customers will have a superior experience."
