A system and method of use are provided for a hand sanitizer dispenser bottle. Disclosed herein is a system comprising a hand sanitizer dispenser bottle, including a reservoir configured to contain sanitizing liquid, an arm extending from the reservoir, a nozzle positioned on a lower surface of an upper portion of the arm, the nozzle configured for dispensing sanitizing liquid, and a sensor for detection the presence of a user's hand. In some embodiments, the nozzle is a dual-headed nozzle.

A method of storing a product that contains a volatile component within a fluid storage reservoir formed with enclosing walls having a permeability that permits limited passage of the volatile component from the storage reservoir to the atmosphere, preferably with the method increasing the shelf life of the product stored, and a fluid storage reservoir with a first container containing the fluid product to be dispensed including the volatile component and a second container containing a sacrifice material including the same volatile component with an intermediate transfer wall shared by both the first container and the second container for transfer of the volatile component between the first container and the second container. The product preferably is a surface cleaner or a hand sanitizer including 30 to 95% ethanol.

A portable container for cleanly containing a loofah puff in the form of a contoured sleeve. One end of the sleeve is open allowing the loofah puff to be put in or removed from the container. The opposite end is substantially closed with a central hole through which a loofah puff cord can be pulled to draw the loofah puff into the sleeve. The cord is left exposed so the container with the loofah puff inside can be hung by the cord if desired. The shape of the sleeve tends to bias the loofah puff in an ideal orientation for folded compression as the loofah puff is drawn into the container and uses the elasticity of the loofah puff to hold it within the sleeve once it is drawn all or most of the way into the sleeve. A lid closes the open end of the sleeve when desired.

A dispenser includes a housing, an inverted container disposed in the housing, a outlet nozzle, a pump, a first check valve, and a second check valve. The container holds a fluid. The pump is disposed between the container and the outlet nozzle. The pump includes a pump inlet in fluid communication with the container, a pump outlet in fluid communication with the outlet nozzle, and a pump chamber in fluid communication with the pump inlet and the pump outlet. The pump chamber is movable between an expanded position and a compressed position. The first check valve is disposed between the pump and the outlet nozzle, and the first check valve has a first cracking pressure. The second check valve is disposed between the first check valve and the outlet nozzle, and the second check valve has a second cracking pressure. The second cracking pressure of the second check valve is greater than the first cracking pressure of the first check valve.

A foamer for use in dispensing a dosage of a product which has a foam consistency is disclosed. The foamer is described as having a high output and as being a mini foamer such that the associated pump engine is able to deliver a dosage for each stroke which is in excess of that dosage normally associated with mini foamers. The receptacle to which the pump engine is assembled has a neck finish which is smaller than those neck finishes normally associated with higher output foamers. The resulting combination as set forth herein is to provide a higher output dosage without changing the size benefits and preferences of a mini foamer.

Exemplary sanitary soap refilling systems and methods are disclosed herein. An exemplary refill refilling system includes a housing, a pump located within the housing, and a bulk storage tank connector. The bulk storage tank connector having a liquid outlet and an air inlet. A liquid inlet conduit is in fluid communication with the pump the liquid outlet. A refill connector is included. The refill connector has a liquid inlet and an air outlet. The refill connector air outlet and the bulk storage tank connector air inlet are in fluid communication with one another. The refill liquid inlet is in fluid communication with the pump.

A hot lather dispenser includes a compartment configured to receive a removable pod, a pump configured to receive liquid from the removable pod during operation, a heater configured to head the liquid, an auger configured to combine the liquid with air to generate lather, and a nozzle configured to dispense the lather to a user.
