I have gotten several special requirements recently from local school districts for a paper towel dispenser made by "Wisconsin Paper Co." I can't find this company anywhere on the internet. Has anyone ever heard of them? |

Thanks Ronald. But they are not the right one. I did call however, and they directed me to a Wisconsin Tissue Co, who was actually bought out by a company called SCA Tissue Company, who does carry the dispenser I was looking for at: www.scatissue.com So, to make a long story short, I found what I needed. Thank you again. |

With the name Scatissue, I very surprised that they don't carry a line of toilet paper. |

Too bad that they (1) are not listed in 4Specs, (2) have a poor website, and (3) don't have a single guide spec much less a detailed description of their products. |

Brett, you should send them a link to this thread. Maybe they'll get the hint and improve their web site and marketing. |

I've been emailing back and forth with the MN rep and did forward her one of the discussion threads. |

Are these institutional grade dispensers, or are they the light duty "throwaway" dispensers that are given to owners by suppliers of janitorial supplies? (and glued to mirrors, or stuck on walls as protruding objects in violation of ADA and codes??) |
