Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a new type of toilet paper wipe dispenser that combines the benefits of a wet wipe and a dry toilet paper product into one product. The dispenser is designed to fit on a standard toilet paper roll hanger and has a cover to keep the wet wipes moist.

Problems solved by technology

It is not an uncommon experience to realize the packaging format of the wet wipes does not allow for a convenient hanging or storing of the product to be used next to a standard toilet bowl.
Further, while toilet paper offers the convenience of hanging and storing the roll, it does not supply the user with the same cleanliness a wet wipe can offer.
The new market for wet wipes has yet to provide a convenient hanging and storing option to the consumer.
