6692 Scott® Essential Airflex Blue Rolled Hand Towel — Food Grade
6692 Scott® Essential Airflex Blue Rolled Hand Towel — Food Grade
Kimberly-Clark Professional · Scott® · Food Contact Certified · Authorised Distributor
The Scott® Essential Airflex™ Rolled Hand Towel (6692) is the food-grade, colour-coded version of the 6691 white roll — identical in specification, but manufactured in blue for visual identification and compliance in food processing, catering, manufacturing and HACCP-controlled environments. At 350m per roll with 1,400 sheets and Airflex™ Technology for rapid absorbency, it is the longest and most efficient rolled hand towel vs competitor systems — offering 25% more hand drying before running out and 3.5x more than the average folded paper towel system. Food contact certified and European Ecolabel approved. Compatible with the Aquarius™ rolled hand towel dispenser in white (7375) or black (7376) — available from Orbit Industrial Supplies.
Why Blue? Colour-Coded Hygiene Compliance
In food processing, catering and manufacturing environments, colour-coded hygiene systems prevent cross-contamination between zones. Blue paper products are the internationally recognised standard for food-contact areas — visually distinguishable from white washroom products and detectable should a fragment enter a food product or production line. The 6692 is food contact certified and specifically designed for hand drying in contamination-critical environments. If your facility uses colour-coded hygiene protocols or operates under HACCP, ISO 22000 or similar food safety management systems, the 6692 is the correct specification.

- Food contact certified — fully compliant for hand drying in food preparation, processing and packaging areas

- Never-run-out stub roll feature in compatible 7375/7376 dispenser increases system capacity by a further 8%

Ideal Applications
Food Processing & Packaging
Production lines, packing stations and adjacent washrooms. Blue colour provides visual zone compliance and fragment detectability in food production environments.
Commercial Kitchens & Catering
Restaurants, canteens, hotel kitchens and catering operations where food-grade hand drying is required at wash stations in food preparation zones.
HACCP-Controlled Environments
Facilities operating under HACCP, ISO 22000 or food safety management systems requiring colour-coded consumables to separate food and non-food zones.
Manufacturing & Industrial
Factory washrooms and hand-drying stations operating colour-coded hygiene protocols. The 350m roll length minimises refill frequency in high-traffic environments.
Airports & Transport Hubs
High-footfall public environments where hygiene efficiency is critical. The 350m roll and never-run-out dispenser feature ensure uninterrupted towel availability.
Facilities Management
Multi-site FM contracts with food-grade hygiene requirements. Same 7375/7376 dispenser as the 6691 white roll — one platform covers both standard and food-grade zones.
