Safe N'Connect supports restaurateurs and hoteliers in meeting health requirements. A young company from the Drôme region dedicated to the safety of establishments, it is launching its innovative solution: the first XXL connected hand sanitizing station. Developed, manufactured and assembled in France by teams of engineers and local partners, the Safe N'Connect solution meets the needs of restaurateurs and hotel establishments looking for a reliable and effective tool to best protect their customers and staff.
Among the first to have been shut down and the last to have resumed operations, players in the hotel and restaurant sector have been considerably affected by the health and economic crisis. Since 15 June, the date of full reopening of restaurants and bars across almost all of France, the entire profession has had to organize quickly to make up for lost time and money, while keeping in mind the health protocol put in place by the government and the sector's professional organizations.
In addition to wearing a mask, this protocol strongly recommends:
- For dining room and restaurant staff, hand washing or gel sanitizing at least every hour,
- A hand sanitizer gel station available to customers from the entrance of the establishment.
Safe N'Connect responds to this need and to the health emergency by enabling restaurateurs and hoteliers to equip themselves with a reliable and effective tool to protect their customers and employees. Designed as a connected floor-standing station, the Safe N'Connect solution works contact-free and automatically: a dose is dispensed within a few tenths of a second as soon as the dispenser detects a hand. Fast and with a very large capacity (10 liters), it helps avoid queues and effectively sanitizes the hands of staff and customers.
In the dining room, on the terrace, in a restaurant kitchen, at a hotel reception or in the corridors leading to the rooms, the station can be customized with the colors and logo of the hotel or restaurant to blend perfectly into any decor.
In the hotel and restaurant industry, the influx of customers can be significant at different times of the day or week. A gel shortage is therefore unthinkable, as it would risk leaving dozens or hundreds of customers unable to sanitize their hands and therefore potentially carrying the virus. Thanks to its predictive management and automatic resupply, the Safe N'Connect station suffers no shortages or stockouts: an onboard electronic system connected to the Safe N'Connect software detects that the tank is nearly empty, the teams are notified and automatically send a gel delivery to the site to refill the equipment, enabling restaurateurs and establishments to save time and gain efficiency. This predictive management of needs, without any checks or action on the part of the establishment, guarantees that gel is available at all times and in all places.
In addition, the Safe N'Connect station collects valuable information for optimal monitoring by marketing and management teams, such as:
- the number of doses dispensed each hour
- the usage rate of the station
- foot traffic around the station (number of people passing nearby
- the remaining gel level
- the empty tank alert
- the battery charge level.
?Analyzing this data makes it possible to better understand customers, take appropriate measures and adapt communication or pricing strategies according to the periods of high or low traffic observed? explains Sylvain Lombard, CEO of Safe N'Connect.
The Safe N'Connect solution is offered as a subscription, with no machine purchase, and is tailored to each hotel and restaurant structure. The Safe N'Connect teams take care of delivering the dispensing station to the site and of delivering new doses of hydroalcoholic product when the software detects an imminent stockout. This solution is also available for rental with no commitment for occasional needs, as well as for purchase.
