Hastings Tile & Bath, the exclusive importer of the VOLA brand in the United States and Canada, presents to the market an elegant and discrete product for hand-sanitizing. For use in offices, retail and hospitality, VOLA’s new RS11 is a series of dispensers designed by architect and designer Torben Madsen, design manager at LINK Arkitektur.
“The design development has been about compressing Vola’s classic, cylindrical shape into as slim and light a design as possible. The result is an aesthetically beautiful dispenser that holds one litre so that it does not have to be refilled often, delivering 1,000 applications from one refill,” says Torben Madsen.
Adaptable for dispensing hand sanitizer, foam or fluid soap/gel the VOLA RS11 is available as a freestanding, wall-mounted or table-mounted configuration, making it ideal for all settings.
In true VOLA style, all mechanisms are hidden to provide a flawless, subtle design that complements its environment perfectly. Even the wall fixtures are discrete, helping to create the slimmest possible design.
Designer Spotlight: Torben Madsen
Torben Madsen is Design Director of Link Arkitektur, the studio that has guided contemporary VOLA product design for the past decade. Madsen has a long history designing products for VOLA; he maintains the design legacy that Arne Jacobsen began in 1968 with the design of the first VOLA faucet.
Madsen describes their work as an on-going conversation with Jacobsen’s ideals, a search for meaning that builds on the rhythm, form and poetry of the originals. Madsen was the chief designer behind many of VOLA’s award-winning products: the 060 showerhead, its Round Series, its FS1 Series and VOLA’s headquarters in Horsens, Denmark.
