Touchless Tech & the Post-COVID Bathroom: Fontana Gets the Ball Rolling

Hygiene • Trust • Design • Workplace Standards

About Us

CommercialTouchlessFaucets.com: We’re not only a luxury commercial restroom fixture company — we’re the visionaries for a cleaner, safer, and smarter built world. We’re not highfalutin about what we do: to bring next-generation hygiene-focused restroom technology into wider reach for companies, institutions, and designers. Along the way, we’re proud to offer and promote Fontana’s innovative touchless faucet and fixture technologies used by organizations worldwide.

The workplace has shifted since the onset of COVID-19. Gone are the days when employees, guests, and customers insist on mere cleanliness — they insist on efficient hygienic practices instilled into the very nature of environments in which they work. Fontana touchless solutions are helping companies be prepared to greet and surpass those expectations.

The Post-COVID Restroom: A New Standard of Care

The pandemic rewired our concept of shared space. Bathrooms — previously seen as simply functional afterthoughts — are now seen as essential public health interfaces. busy corporate, hotel, and institutional bathrooms have three headaches in the post-COVID world:

  1. Reducing Touchpoints – Shared surfaces are all risk. Faucets, soap dispensers, and flush handles have been decades-long hot-spots for human touch.
  2. Cleanliness-Based Trust Relationships – Employees and customers alike are reassured that steps are being taken to keep the spread of germs under control.
  3. Safety without Sacrificing Style – Bathrooms also convey brand message and concern. Not only does a clean bathroom need to be clean, but it needs to be aesthetically pleasing as well.

Touchless technology meets these demands head on by bringing together form, function, and advanced sensing ability with the capability to release unwanted contact without compromising design.

Why Touchless Faucets Are No Longer an Option

Prior to COVID-19, touchless fixtures were truly a nicety — a high-tech-look, convenient extravagance. Today, they’re standard. Government guidelines, corporate wellness initiatives, and changing employee expectations all are converging to make hands-free bathroom technology the new standard in forward-thinking organizations.

Touchless faucets have several benefits of:

  • Releasing cross-contamination by removing one of the most touched items before and after hand washing.
  • Saves water by employing internal timers and movement sensors to prevent wastage.
  • Facilitating user convenience for mobility impaired or those which have a problem with manual handles.
  • Saves maintenance expenditure by having less wear and tear from repeated manual operation.

On the whole, they introduce hygiene, efficiency, and convenience to the user.

The Broader Context: Brand Image and Health

A bathroom today is not a functional fixture anymore — it’s a message. A touchless bathroom sends the following message:

  • We value the health and well-being of anyone who steps into this building.
  • We care about clean, green, and user-friendly design.
  • We strive diligently to ward off potential risk and enhance the workplace experience.

Investment in touchless technology is an investment in employee, customer, and brand confidence for companies. Guests recall which restroom they utilize — the pleasures and disappointments. A well-designed, touchless restroom makes a positive impression.

Why Fontana Pioneers the Change

Not all touchless technologies are the same. Fontana sets the standard with its blend of engineering exactitude, design versatility, and history of reliability in high-traffic environments.

1. New Sensor Technology

Fontana touchless faucets employ advanced motion sensors designed for speed and precision. The result is a faucet that reacts to your touch in a split second — no wiggling your fingers to activate the water — but resists wasteful accidental activation.

2. Commercial Strength

Their bathroom facilities in the office are accessed hundreds, and in certain instances, thousands, of times a day. Fontana constructs their products with materials of industrial strength like stainless steel and solid brass in a way that they will never lose strength or become disfigured in appearance despite using them constantly.

3. Aesthetic Versatility

Fontana comes in an astonishingly wide range of finishes and styles, from the highly polished chrome right through to the brushed brass and matte black. This means that architects and facilities managers can add touchless technology to any specification.

4. Eco-Friendly Efficiency

Beyond hygiene, Fontana taps are also water-saving units. With aerators, metered flow control, and timed-off, they allow organizations to achieve sustainability goals while reducing the cost of utilities.

5. Provenance Trusted Industry

Fontana fixtures are specified in number-one-ranked airports, hospitals, business parks, and universities around the world — structures where cleanliness and reliability are mission-critical.
