The SD5000-PO Commercial Free-Vend Sanitary Napkin Dispenser is designed for schools and commercial facilities seeking an age-appropriate menstrual care solution. By dispensing sanitary napkins only, it provides a simple, cost-effective option for elementary schools, intermediate schools, and other facilities where pad-only dispensing is preferred.
Manufactured in the USA from durable 22-gauge steel, the SD5000-PO features reliable mechanical operation without batteries, sensors, or complicated electronics. Its free-vend design provides convenient access while minimizing maintenance and long-term operating costs.
Compatible with standard No. 4 sanitary napkin boxes, the SD5000-PO accepts non-proprietary refill products, allowing facility managers to purchase refills from multiple suppliers rather than being locked into proprietary refill systems.
The SD5000**-PO is specifically designed for elementary and middle school kids who require access to menstrual care products in restrooms but are too young for tampons. With its sanitary napkin-only vending capability, this unit ensures age-appropriate access to essential hygiene products. It is ideal for use in public restrooms of institutions of all kinds that aim to comply with and implement the Menstrual Equity for All Act. Simply install the vending machine in designated restroom areas and ensure it is stocked with sanitary napkins to provide convenient access for all users.
Upgrade your restroom facilities and promote menstrual equity with the SD5000**-PO Sanitary Napkin Vending Machine from Golden Group International. Provide essential menstrual care products in a safe, convenient, and age-appropriate manner, ensuring the well-being of all users.
