Roller Towels: Supplied and Laundered for Your Business
Your washrooms need hand drying that holds up to a full shift without running out or breaking down. phs Besafe's cotton roller towel dispensers give staff and visitors soft, continuous drying, backed by a fully managed laundry and delivery service.
You get fresh towels on a schedule built around your site, with no stock to order, no bins to empty and no dryers to repair. Every towel is inspected, laundered and replaced as part of the round.
What Is a roller towel service?
A commercial roller towel service supplies, launders and replaces cotton hand towels housed in a wall-mounted cabinet dispenser, so washrooms always have a clean length of towel ready to use. Instead of buying and washing towels yourself, a provider delivers fresh rolls on a set cycle and takes the used ones away for laundering, so the system runs itself.
Cotton roller towels: soft, absorbent, built for busy washrooms
Cotton roller towels are woven to stay soft and absorbent through hundreds of hand dries between washes. They're a good fit for washrooms with steady footfall, where paper runs out fast and hand dryers can't keep pace during shift changes.
Some key features include:
- Soft, non-abrasive finish that's gentle on skin after repeated use through the day
- High absorbency per pass, made from 100% cotton for a strong, absorbent dry
- Quiet in use, making them a good fit for washrooms near meeting rooms or clinical spaces
- Available in a choice of roll colours to suit your washroom
Cabinet roller towels: how the system works
A cabinet roller towel dispenser holds a length of 100% cotton towel enclosed inside the unit. Pulling the towel down presents a clean section to dry your hands, while the used section is drawn up into a separate compartment at the back of the cabinet, away from the clean supply. Keeping clean and used sections apart inside the cabinet also stops the towel jamming, a common complaint with older roller mechanisms.
phs Besafe installs the dispenser and leaves you a convenient stock of rolls to swap in as needed. We then collect the used towels and deliver fresh ones on a schedule set around your footfall and budget, so you're never chasing repairs or sourcing parts yourself.
Roller towels vs paper towels and hand dryers
Each hand-drying option comes with a different balance of cost, waste and reliability. Here's how roller towels compare.
| Factor | Cotton Roller Towels | Paper Towels / Hand Dryers |
|---|
| Ongoing Waste | Reusable and laundered on a cycle; minimal washroom waste | Paper: bin waste every shift. Dryers: no waste but high energy use |
| Reliability during peak times | Enclosed cabinet keeps a clean section ready through shift changes | Paper bins run out; dryers queue when several people need them at once |
| Maintenance | phs Besafe installs, launders and redelivers on schedule; you top up rolls from stock left on-site | Paper needs frequent restocking; dryers need servicing and can break down |
| Running cost at scale | Predictable fixed service cost across multiple sites | Paper cost scales with footfall; dryers carry ongoing electricity cost |
Commercial and washroom roller towels for every sector
Commercial roller towels are specified across offices, construction, manufacturing sites, warehouses, healthcare settings and hospitality washrooms, wherever consistent hand hygiene matters and footfall is too high for paper alone to keep up.
phs Besafe supplies washroom roller towels to single sites and multi-site estates alike, with the same standard and laundry cycle applied across every location, so facilities teams get one consistent system instead of managing several suppliers.
How the towel laundering service works
Each roller towel is collected on its scheduled visit and put through a high-temperature wash and dry process that removes germs, bacteria and stains. Every towel is quality checked and stored in a hamper bag to stay fresh until it's back in your washroom. phs Besafe is a member of the Textile Services Association (TSA) and follows its hygiene pledge on every laundering cycle.
- Scheduled collection and delivery, set to match your washroom's usage pattern

Frequently Asked Questions
How often are roller towels changed and laundered?
Collection and laundering are scheduled around your washroom's footfall, typically weekly for standard sites and more frequently for higher-traffic locations. Your service schedule is agreed and confirmed before the first delivery.
Are roller towels hygienic?
Yes, cotton roller towels go through a high-temperature wash and dry process after every cycle, and phs Besafe follows the Textile Services Association's hygiene pledge on each laundering run.
Compare this to paper towels which are single-use, meaning hygiene depends on bins being emptied and stock being replaced on time. This can be harder to guarantee during busy periods.
Can I get a roller towel service across multiple sites?
Yes. The service is set up to run consistently across single sites or multi-site estates, with the same standard, laundry cycle and reporting applied at every location you manage.
What cabinet sizes and colours are available?
Dispensers come in a range of sizes and roll colours, from compact units for smaller washrooms to higher-capacity cabinets for busy kitchens and communal areas. Your site survey and quote confirms the right size, colour and mounting position for each location.
