The bursting trophy case confirms what we knew all along — hand sanitizer, while more important than ever before, desperately needed a transformation.
Jon Olsen | Founder
It’s been just over a year since we introduced our touchless hand sanitizing fixture to the world, and already Vaask® has earned more than 50 prestigious awards. How can a hand sanitizing fixture win so many accolades? Because, quite simply, our engineers understand innovation. They know that being successful requires rethinking the status quo. So that’s what we did.
In the case of hand sanitizing, we all can agree that the status quo left much to be desired, from design (flimsy, single-use plastic and uninspired) to technology (so last century) to user experience (messy, smelly and inconsistent).
Vaask’s team of engineers, who had previously disrupted the fan industry at Big Ass Fans®, went to work to change all that. Using a similar approach that had been a $500 million feat at the fan company, we spoke with architects, designers and healthcare industry professionals and reinvented the hand sanitizing experience to fix what didn’t work. The result is a fixture that immediately garnered rave reviews, confirming that a complete makeover had been long overdue.
Built to last, Vaask offers an effective, money-saving hand sanitizing solution. Vaask’s features include:
With more than 50 awards, including Most Sustainable Product and Architect’s Choice awards at the Healthcare Facilities Symposium & Expo and back-to-back Healthcare Design Product Innovation Awards, as well as the prestigious Red Dot award for product design, Vaask has established itself as the industry leader and authority on the subject of clean hands.
“The kind of design attention that the rest of a modern workplace gets.”
“Vaask is an exceptional example of how good design can transform an everyday product into an object that has both an aesthetic and an emotional impact on the user.”
And in explaining the decision to honor Vaask with the first of its two Healthcare Design Product Innovation Awards, one judge wrote, “It’s a striking, elegant and inviting design, and it addresses a very critical hygiene issue within healthcare environments.”
