Data sheet

Proprietary Dispenser Systems and Matching Refills

Offshore sources proprietary dispenser systems for distributors building a locked-in refill program, along with universal towel, tissue, napkin and soap dispensers where an open format fits better. A dispenser is only useful if it fits the product it holds, so capacity, mounting and refill format are specified alongside the paired consumable. Use this page to confirm the system before you request a quote.

How we source it

How Offshore handles proprietary dispenser systems

  • Dispenser capacity and fit are confirmed against the paired towel, tissue, napkin or soap spec before Offshore requests factory quotes.

  • You approve a sample dispenser for fit, finish and mechanism function before production begins.

  • Offshore audits the factory and reviews the pre-production sample against your spec.

  • Pre-shipment inspection uses AQL sampling to check finish, mechanism function and packaging.

  • Offshore prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and ISF, and manages customs entry through a licensed broker.

  • You work with one Offshore contact to match the dispenser to the paired product, manage the factory relationship, run inspection and handle the paperwork.

Questions

Common questions

Should I choose a proprietary or universal dispenser?

A proprietary dispenser locks in a specific product line, which helps standardize refill and brand presentation. A universal dispenser accepts product from more than one supplier, which gives more flexibility on future sourcing. The right choice depends on your program goals.

Can dispensers be matched to a specific towel or tissue product?

Yes, dispenser capacity and fit are confirmed against the paired product's roll diameter or sheet count before the order is placed. This match is checked during sample approval.

Can dispensers be branded or custom colored?

Custom color and branding are available on many dispenser lines, subject to the factory's capability and minimum requirements for that run. Confirm this as part of your initial spec.

How are dispensers quality checked before shipment?

A sample dispenser is approved for fit, finish and mechanism function, then Offshore inspects pre-shipment using AQL sampling. This checks finish quality, latch or lock function and packaging.
