According to a research report this past month by 360MarketUpdates (Pune, India), there has been an increase in the number of hand paper towel dispenser manufacturers. Both local and international manufacturers are introducing various products, thus giving many options to users. Hence, to distinguish their products, manufacturers are coming up with various variations. For instance, manufacturers have introduced hand paper towel dispensers with anti-bacterial coatings. Since, the c-fold paper towel gives out more towels than required, manufacturers have developed dispensers that use paper towel rolls instead. This type of dispenser dispenses only the required amount of paper towel thus, leading to lesser wastage of tissues. 

Additionally, since it cheaper to buy paper towel rolls with high capacity, users are demanding dispensers that can hold high capacity paper towels.
