Touchless paper towel dispenser.

Welcome to our gallery featuring an extensive collection of the best touchless products for the home!

The above touchless paper towel dispenser is just one example of many products that can create a sensor-driven home.

We pride ourselves on keeping up with the cutting edge when it comes to home design, and we’re eager to deliver the news.

Here we present the results of our extensive research into useful touchless products that can improve any home.

Out of all the new technology infiltrating our daily lives, touchless tech has the potential to have the biggest impact on home cleaning and hygiene products. When there’s no physical contact, we can ensure that germs and dirt aren’t spread around.

This is an exciting prospect, as you can imagine!

Whether you’ve been gardening, working your car, or just doing some house cleaning, there are times when you’ll need to get some water, flip on a light, or do anything else without making a bigger mess with your hands. Some of these products are designed to make this problem disappear.

There are more reasons for wanting touchless control, of course. Maybe your hands are full, returning from the grocery store. Maybe you need a little help in the kitchen. Maybe you just like the zero-wear sheen of high technology.

The point is, there are myriad opportunities for improving your home experience with touchless technology. We’ve covered nearly everything out there, from soap dispensers to video surveillance, in an effort to provide examples of this fantastic tech at work in a home setting.

We’ve covered why these devices are useful, but how do they work? Most of these products feature infrared motion sensing, allowing a simple wave of the hand or light tap to activate. Some of them are a little more involved, but all require infinitely less effort than their standard forebears.

Look around at the devices and utilities you use most in your home, and think of ways any of them might be improved with modern technology. Chances are, there’s a cutting edge version of whatever you’ve got. The only question is: how much more useful can it be?

We’ve answered that question with a set of useful hands-free versions of everyday items you use around the home. Check out our list and see what appeals most. You might be surprised at just how much of an improvement a touchless upgrade can bring!
