Model V Free-Vend Dispensers + Compostable Period Products
The Challenge
Set on the Pacific shores of Vancouver Island, the Oak Bay Beach Hotel is renowned for its luxury hospitality, heritage charm, and commitment to environmental stewardship. From low-flow fixtures to plant-based amenities, sustainability runs through every aspect of the hotel’s operations.
Yet, one detail stood out:
Outdated, coin-operated menstrual product dispensers in guest washrooms were unreliable, prone to jamming, visually out of place, and often empty—resulting in guest complaints.
Frequent manual checks by housekeeping added unnecessary labour costs and operational inefficiencies.
The hotel needed a solution that reflected its standards of sustainability, style, and service—while reducing maintenance time and costs.
The joni® Solution
Smart Dispensers, Seamless Operations
The sleek, modern Model V smart dispensers replaced outdated machines, enhancing the hotel’s upscale aesthetic. With remote-fill tracking software, housekeeping is automatically alerted when restocking is needed—saving time and eliminating guesswork.
Sustainable Products, Tangible Impact
By switching to joni’s compostable pads and tampons made from organic bamboo and cotton, the hotel now diverts approximately 96kg of plastic waste from landfills annually—from just their public washrooms alone.
Enhanced Guest Experience
Free, high-quality period care makes a subtle yet significant impact on guest satisfaction. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touch, and the housekeeping team values the improved process.
Operational Insights
With smart tracking, the team now forecasts and budgets for approximately 1800 pads and 1500 tampons per quarter—a significant improvement in efficiency and service delivery.
