The SanitGrasp® (patent pending) is a "J" shaped door pull handle that allows a person to exit the restroom door with their wrist or forearm, thereby avoiding germs on the traditional restroom door pull handle. The SanitGrasp® was developed to solve the following scenario in a public restroom: 1. Use the facilities - probably with an automatic flusher 2. Wash hands - probably with an automatic faucet 3. Exit restroom by touching pull handle - hands once again are contaminated

Cumming, GA (PRWeb) March 23, 2007 -- The SanitGrasp® (patent pending) is a new door pull handle that allows a person to exit the restroom door with their wrist or forearm, thereby avoiding germs on the traditional restroom door pull handle.

Fulkerson, LLC President, Matthew Fulkerson, stated, "This product provides a unique opportunity for an establishment to show their customers they really care about the health of their facility. We have all seen a person leave the restroom stall and head straight for the restroom exit door. What happens when a cook leaves the restroom and picks up those nasty viruses? It is well known that germs can stay alive on hard surfaces for a minumum of 20 minutes. This is one way of spreading the common cold, e.coli, staphylococcus (the virus behind food poisoning and a form of pneumonia) or even hepatitis A. The SanitGrasp® allows those who wash their hands to exit without touching a contaminated restroom door pull handle." Many restaurants in North America and Central America are improving their facility with the SanitGrasp®.

Public Restroom Door Handle Concerns
The SanitGrasp® was developed to solve the following problem in a public restrooms:
1. Use the facilities - probably with an automatic flusher
2. Wash hands - probably with an automatic faucet
3. Exit restroom by touching pull handle - hands once again are contaminated

The SanitGrasp® is the Solution

  • Increased the sanitation within an establishment
  • Ease of use for those with hand disabilities
  • Reduced paper towel waste and expense

"The SanitGrasp® offers a rare opportunity to quickly and economically improve a customer's experience. It is a very easy retrofit for existing door pull handles," stated Matthew Fulkerson.
