Buy or rent hygiene products and dispensers?

News 30 July 2024 CitroenAir .com

At CitroenAir, we understand that choosing between buying or renting hygiene products and dispensers is an important decision for any business. It’s a choice that can affect the efficiency, cost and flexibility of your operations. In this blog, we will take you through the benefits of both options so you can make an informed decision that fits your company’s needs.

Imagine this: your business has just moved into a new office building, or perhaps you have a busy restaurant that needs to be in top condition at all times. Hygiene is crucial, not only for the health of your employees and customers, but also for your company’s reputation. This is where the question arises: do you buy the hygiene products and dispensers, or do you choose to rent them?

The benefits of buying

1: Benefit of ownership

Choosing to purchase hygiene products and dispensers offers you the advantage of ownership. When you invest in these products, they become a permanent part of your business. This means you have complete control over their use and maintenance, without depending on outside parties. Although the initial cost is higher, buying may prove more beneficial in the long run. You save on monthly rental costs, and after the initial investment, costs are mainly limited to maintenance and replacements.

2: Freedom of choice

A key advantage of buying hygiene products is freedom of choice. When you purchase, you can choose from a wide range of brands and materials, such as high-quality stainless steel, whereas when you lease, you are often limited to a few options in plastic dispensers. This freedom of choice allows you to select products that perfectly match your company’s needs and image.

In addition, buying also offers more freedom in mounting options, such as:

  • Flush mounting: Ideal for new buildings, where the frame disappears completely or partially into the wall. This saves space and requires less cleaning. After years of use, the faceplates can be easily replaced.
  • Installation in cabinets/behind mirrors: This allows for “invisible” or “reduced” solutions. Soap and paper towels can be easily refilled, and hidden mounting is ideal for public restrooms.
  • Recessed mounting: For individually designed wash basins that accommodate recessed models, resulting in ornate wash basins. Optional wall or floor brackets make renovation easy.

3: Freedom in the procurement marketplace

Finally, non-branded dispensers offer freedom in the procurement marketplace
For facility managers, the ability to control the cost of consumables is critical and is becoming increasingly important in this challenging economic climate.

Many dispensers from CitroenAir are designed to be unbranded, that is, they accept commonly available consumables such as soaps, paper towels and toilet paper.

Unlike most dispensers supplied by soap and paper companies, many of our accessories are made of corrosion-resistant RVS (type 304). As a result, CitroenAir’s solutions are not only durable and vandal resistant, but also remain beautiful for years to come. Our commitment to unbranded systems frees building owners/managers from expensive and restrictive contracts for consumables, enabling them to purchase generic paper goods, soaps and services on the open market at advantageous prices without sacrificing quality.

The benefits of renting

1. On the other hand, renting hygiene products and dispensers offers unique advantages, especially in terms of flexibility and convenience. One of the most attractive aspects of renting is that it requires a lower initial investment. This can be particularly useful for companies that want to spread their budgets or prefer not to spend large sums of money at once.

2. Flexibility is another great advantage of renting. Leases are often flexible and can be easily adjusted to meet changing needs. For businesses that are growing rapidly or dealing with seasonal crowds, this flexibility can be invaluable. You can easily upgrade or downgrade as the situation requires without major financial implications.

3. In addition, one of the most reassuring benefits of renting is the included maintenance and service. At CitroenAir, we ensure that your rented equipment is always in optimal condition. This means you don’t have to worry about unexpected repair costs or spending time on maintenance. Our service ensures that your dispensers are always ready for use, allowing you to focus on your core business.

4. Renting also gives you the opportunity to regularly upgrade to the latest products. This ensures that your business always has the most efficient and effective hygiene solutions, without the need for large investments.
