Part 3: Seasonal Attractions & Entertainment Venues — Accessibility Shouldn’t Take a Back Seat

Note: This post continues our series on improving public accessibility by installing universal changing stations in key gathering spaces. See Part 1 here.

While many seasonal attractions and entertainment venues have taken strides to improve accessibility with features such as ramps, elevators, and accessible parking, one essential feature remains missing in far too many places: adult changing stations. For those within the group of Americans with a disability who need assistance in the bathroom and their caregivers, something as simple as using the restroom can turn a day of fun into a day of frustration or even embarrassment.

When visitors plan a trip to a favorite holiday light display, county fair, music festival, or amusement park, they expect joy, not stress. Yet without proper facilities, these spaces can unintentionally exclude a significant portion of their audience. When inclusion is the deciding factor for a group of a dozen ticket-paying visitors attending an event, that moves it from a nice-to-have to an essential way to do business.

In some cases, if even one person in the family can’t go, the entire group stays home.

The Accessibility Gap in Seasonal Fun

Seasonal attractions are designed to bring communities together to celebrate, create memories, and share joy. But for individuals with disabilities who require assistance with using the facilities, the absence of adult changing stations means making choices:

  • Cut the outing short
  • Attempt unsafe or unsanitary diapering or toileting in public view
  • Skip the event altogether

Portable restrooms and standard accessible stalls simply aren’t enough. Even a wheelchair-accessible stall still lacks the space and equipment needed for adults who require assistance. Without a private room and a height-adjustable adult changing station, caregivers are forced to improvise, often on restroom floors, in vehicles, or not at all.

Behind every person who needs an adult changing station is a network of caregivers and loved ones who are deeply affected by the lack of facilities. A parent caring for a teen with cerebral palsy, a spouse supporting a partner with multiple sclerosis, or an adult child assisting an aging parent with mobility limitations, each faces the same challenge: how to meet basic needs in public spaces that aren’t built for them.

When attractions overlook adult changing stations, they’re not just missing an amenity; they’re missing an opportunity to serve entire families who want to participate in community life.

Seasonal Doesn’t Mean Exempt from Inclusion

Whether it’s a summer carnival, a haunted hayride, or a holiday market, accessibility should never be an afterthought. Temporary and seasonal events often attract lengthy visits by large crowds and multigenerational families, making inclusive facilities more critical.

But even for temporary and outdoor events, organizers can still provide accessibility that doesn’t require a brick-and-mortar building. Many high-end portable restroom companies now offer trailers that can be equipped with an adult changing station. By requiring vendors to provide accessible trailers, any field or parking lot can be inclusive.

Ensuring there are adult changing stations available in a private space, signals a commitment to true accessibility. It says: Everyone is welcome here.

Building Brand Loyalty Through Accessibility

Inclusion isn’t just a social responsibility; it’s a powerful driver of revenue and brand loyalty. Families within the disability community are highly connected and loyal. Becoming a safe harbor destination with proper facilities creates word-of-mouth marketing that no ad campaign can buy.

When families know an attraction accommodates their needs, they stay longer, spend more, and share their positive experiences with others. Beyond economics, offering adult changing stations demonstrates social responsibility and aligns with evolving accessibility standards.

Built for the Peak Season Grind

Seasonal attractions face a unique challenge: They go from empty to maximum capacity in a matter of days. Your equipment must be as resilient as your staff.

The Koala Kare KB3000-AHL Adult Changing Station is engineered to handle the peak season rush with features designed for high-traffic, high-intensity environments:

  • Robust durability: With an IK10 impact rating, these units are vandal-resistant and built to withstand the rigors of public fairgrounds and stadiums.
  • Substantial weight capacity: A safe working load of 500 lbs. (227 kg.) ensures that you can safely accommodate visitors of all sizes and needs.
  • Easy to clean: The crevice-free surface is made of durable, nonporous plastic with a rust-free frame making the unit fully rinsable and suitable for wet environments.

Koala Kare Products believes that public spaces, temporary or permanent, should not force families to choose between dignity and participation. Equipping seasonal attractions and entertainment venues with adult changing stations can transform frustration into freedom.

Part 2: Museums & Culture Centers — Accessibility is Part of the Experience

Note: This post continues our series on improving public accessibility by installing universal changing stations in key gathering spaces. See Part 1 here.

Museums are the custodians of our collective history and the incubators of our future creativity. Their primary goal is to tell stories that resonate with everyone. However, for adults living with a disability, the story is often interrupted by physical barriers that go unnoticed by the average visitor.

When we think of accessibility, we often focus on wheelchair ramps, captioning on video exhibits, or sensory-friendly hours. While these are vital, true inclusivity requires a 360-degree view of the visitor experience.

By following the concept of universal design, cultural institutions can identify and complete the often-overlooked facility upgrades that transform a museum from compliant to truly welcoming.

The Difference Between ADA Compliance & Universal Design

For facility managers and architects, it is crucial to distinguish between meeting regulations and meeting human needs.

  • ADA compliance: The legal baseline that ensures an independent person with a disability can physically enter the building and access services (e.g., door width, elevator access, grab bars).
  • Universal design: A philosophy that says public environments should be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible.

By following the concept of universal design, cultural institutions can identify and complete the often-overlooked facility upgrades that transform a museum from compliant to truly welcoming, ensuring that a visitor using a powered wheelchair, a parent with a stroller, or a neurodivergent visitor can all navigate the space with equal dignity and ease.

The Duration Gap in Cultural Institutions

One of the most significant metrics for museum success is how long a visitor stays. Unfortunately, there is often a duration gap between able-bodied visitors and those with mobility challenges.

The ability to remain in the building comfortably can be another challenge for people with disabilities.

For caregivers assisting individuals with mobility challenges or disabilities, the length of a visit is often dictated by the restrooms. If a museum has world-class exhibits but lacks dignified restroom facilities for adults and older children, the clock is ticking the moment the family arrives.

The Caregiver’s Dilemma

When the necessary infrastructure is missing, caregivers must decide to:

  1. Cut the visit short: Missing out on exhibits or educational programs.
  2. Leave the premises: Exiting the museum to find facilities elsewhere.
  3. Improvise in unsafe ways: Changing a loved one on a restroom floor, which is unsanitary, unsafe, and undignified.
  4. Not to visit at all: Sadly, many people with disabilities will forgo visiting due to a lack of proper restroom resources.

Why the Restroom Is Part of the Experience

It may seem functional, but the restroom is an emotional touchpoint. Providing an adult changing station signals to a visitor: “We expected you, we value your presence, and we want you to stay.”

Leading institutions such as the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, the Field Museum in Chicago, and The Henry Ford museum in Dearborn, Michigan, have recognized this by installing universal changing tables.

Add Accessibility with an Adult Changing Station

As legislative momentum grows to require adult changing stations, it’s important to pick a solution with the right features to serve visitors. A truly inclusive facility includes adult changing stations that include:

  • Powered height adjustability: Equipment that lowers enough for safe transfer and raises enough to be waist height to protect caregivers from back strain.
  • High weight capacity: Standard baby changing stations cannot support older children or adults. Universal stations should support at least 500 lbs. (227 kg.).
  • Hygiene-first design: Surfaces should be crevice-free and impact-resistant (rated IK10) to withstand high-traffic environments and rigorous cleaning schedules.

The Case for Inclusion

Investing in accessibility is not just a moral imperative; it is a sound operational strategy. The Purple dollar (the spending power of disabled households) represents a significant market.

When museums invest in adult changing stations and universal design, they:

  • Extend visit times: Visitors don’t have to rush home.
  • Encourage repeat visits: Visitors return to venues where they know their needs are met.
  • Boost reputation:Museums are public-facing entities. Being known as a leader in inclusion attracts positive press, grants, and community support.

Making Inclusion Part of Your Story

When cultural institutions invest in “invisible infrastructure” — support systems unnoticed by the majority but critical to the few — they transform from places that merely educate and entertain into spaces that truly embrace the entire community.

At Koala Kare Products, the KB3000-AHL Adult Changing Station can help museums meet rigorous standards of safety, dignity, and durability. Inclusion isn’t an afterthought — it’s part of the experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are adult changing stations required in museums under current building codes?

While the ADA sets the baseline for accessibility, the International Building Code has evolved to include more rigorous standards. As of the 2021 and 2024 editions, the IBC requires adult changing stations in certain large assembly occupancies, often including large museums, science centers, and galleries with high occupancy limits. Even in regions where this code hasn’t yet been adopted, leading institutions are installing them voluntarily to future-proof their facilities and meet the higher standard of universal design.

Where is the optimal location for an adult changing station within a museum?

To maximize dignity and usability, adult changing stations should be located in single-occupancy family or companion care restrooms, rather than within gendered multi-stall restrooms. Ideally, these facilities should be centrally located near main exhibits or food halls to minimize travel time. For larger institutions, best practices suggest installing a station on each major floor or wing to ensure no visitor has to cut their experience short to find a restroom.

Part 1: Stadium & Arena Restrooms — Be a Fan of Accessibility

Note: This post is the first in our series on improving public accessibility by installing universal changing stations in key gathering spaces

The lack of accessible facilities for a significant part of the <70 million adults with disabilities and their support networks prevents these fans from fully engaging in public life.

Commercial venues such as stadiums and concert halls succeed in prioritizing physical access, the absence of adult changing stations leaves a significant gap in true accessibility. In our six-part adult changing stations series, these blogs explore how installing universal changing areas at stadiums, festivals, rest stops, and hospitals creates an immediate, positive impact.

The Hidden Challenge Behind the Excitement

The big game and the latest concerts are more than just a good time. It’s the anticipation as fans stream into the stadium or arena, the thrill of singing along with the crowd, the pride of wearing team colors, and the joy of sharing traditions across generations.

But the absence of adult changing stations in large venues often turns what should be a joyful outing into a stressful experience for many fans with mobility issues or disabilities and their caregivers.

Most stadiums and arenas are designed with energy and spectacle in mind, from the big screens and booming sound systems to the state-of-the-art seating. Yet one of the most fundamental needs is often overlooked: safe, private, and accessible facilities for every fan.

Without adult changing stations, caregivers have to decide if they should attempt a change in a public restroom that isn’t equipped for their needs? Or should they resort to the floor of a restroom or a car in the parking lot? Or do they leave early and miss the moments that make the event special?

These choices strip away dignity, compromise safety, and send a message — however unintentional — that some fans don’t fully belong. For some, this reality means skipping live events altogether.

The Case for Adult Changing Stations in Large Venues

Accessibility is more than getting through the stadium gates or finding the right seating section. True inclusion means designing every part of the experience with all fans in mind. Adult changing stations are a simple but powerful step toward equity.

By installing adult changing stations in stadiums and arenas, you:

  • Restore dignity: Fans with mobility challenges deserve the same respect and comfort as everyone else.
  • Relieve stress: Attendeescan enjoy the game or concert without worrying about where or how to manage basic needs.
  • Encourage fan participation: More fans can confidently attend live events while getting their needs met.
  • Set a new industry standard: Just as accessibility ramps and ADA-compliant seating are now a given, adult changing stations should be, too.

Legislative momentum is building across the country, with many regions introducing mandates for adult changing stations in large public facilities to ensure equitable access.

Inclusion Belongs Everywhere — Even the Restrooms

Sports and concerts have the unique power to unite, boosting collective energy while cheering with strangers who suddenly feel like family. It’s about belonging.

That’s why inclusion cannot stop at the entrance gate or the concourse. It must extend to every corner, including the space for everyone to use the restroom. When adult changing stations and privacy are missing, an entire community of fans is excluded from the full experience.

Stadiums and arenas have the opportunity to lead the entertainment industry by making these stations a standard feature. Doing so is a commitment to equity, dignity, and respect. It’s a statement that says every fan matters.

These events aren’t just about the players on the field or the performers on stage. It’s about the fans, the grandparents bringing their grandchildren to their first game, the lifelong supporters who’ve been coming for decades, and the families who make memories together in the stands.

A Call to Action for Stadiums and Arenas

At Koala Kare Products, we believe that everyone deserves to be part of those moments. Inclusion belongs everywhere. By including private space for adult changing stations, these locations ensure these events are truly for everyone, today, tomorrow, and for generations to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an adult changing station? 

An adult changing station, also referred to in federal legislation as a universal changing station, is a specialized facility designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and dignified space for individuals with disabilities who cannot use a standard toilet and require assistance with toileting or diapering.

While similar in concept to a baby changing station, an ACS is engineered as a piece of medical-grade equipment adapted for public spaces. It is designed to address the needs of individuals with disabilities, mobility challenges, incontinence, or other special needs, as well as the safety of their caregivers.

What is the legislation concerning adult changing stations?

Even in the absence of a federal ADA mandate, governmental and nongovernmental bodies throughout the United States, Canada, and across the world have introduced or are considering requirements and recommendations related to these stations in public facilities. Review this interactive legislation map to find information related to these developments in different regions.

Mandatory High Chair Standard Has Been Served

“As of June 19, 2019, a new federal standard for high chair safety will take effect, enabling restaurateurs to take even better care of some of their most valuable and vulnerable customers — infants and toddlers who visit with their families.

As the effective date approaches, operators are advised to review the new requirements and determine whether their current high chair inventory is compliant. The new standard involves all high chairs for home and restaurant use, both domestically made and imported into the U.S. Restaurateurs will not be required to replace existing chairs that fail to comply. But as of June 19, only compliant high chairs will be permitted for sale. Operators should be aware that some high chairs currently on the market are already compliant with the new standard but many are not.”

A Path to Parent Loyalty: Maintenance Pays Off

In commercial facilities and restaurants, having childcare products that are safe and efficiently maintained can be a reliable way to support your bottom line.

According to research conducted in 2016 by an independent market research firm, 25 percent of parents express a desire for better cleaning of currently available baby changing stations as well as inclusion of disinfecting wipes and/or liners.

Also among the findings? For high chairs, cleanliness, regular maintenance and upkeep of seatbelts and straps were the top areas for improvement.

Want to learn more about keeping your amenities clean and how it can support your bottom line? See our infographic, “A Path to Parent Loyalty”.

How to Maintain and Clean Commercial Baby Changing Stations for Public Washrooms

Restroom hygiene directly informs user perceptions, which means a facility cleanliness should be a top priority

For parents and caregivers, the state of your baby changing station is often the ultimate gauge of your establishment’s standards. Because these stations are used directly by infants and caregivers, users expect a high standard of cleanliness and hygiene. 

Failing to meet these expectations can impact:

  • Customer retention: Patrons will shorten a visit or avoid returning to a business entirely due to poor washroom hygiene.
  • Public trust: Dated, stained, or visibly worn changing tables signal a lack of regular maintenance.
  • Business reputation: Patrons will make assumptions about your business based on the cleanliness of the facilities.

Addressing the primary complaint parents have about public restrooms — cleanliness — requires both proactive daily care providing a contemporary baby changing station appropriate for your washroom.

How to Keep Your Koala Kare Changing Stations in Shape 

Keeping your Koala Kare baby changing station safe, clean, and ready for use requires routine maintenance, regular safety checks, and proper sanitation. 

Maintenance Checklist: Structural and Safety

To incorporate your baby changing station into your routine facility maintenance checks, be sure to: 

  1. Check the operation: Verify that the table opens and closes smoothly. If the unit’s bed opens too quickly or fails to close completely, replace the pneumatic shock mechanism.
  2. Inspect the safety strap: Look for fraying or other signs of damage. Replace immediately if compromised.
  3. Test the buckle: Ensure it clicks firmly into place and remains anchored at both ends.
  4. Check the dispensers: Make sure any built-in or wall-mounted liner and diaper bag dispensers are fully stocked.
  5. Inspect warning labels: Verify that all safety and operational labels are legible and undamaged.

Step-by-Step Cleaning and Sanitation Protocol

Follow these steps to clean the station’s cleaning bed during routine washroom cleaning:

  1. Remove surface dirt: Use a clean, soft-bristled nylon brush or a microfiber cloth to loosen and remove dirt and debris. Microfiber captures 25% to 35% more fine soil particles than standard terrycloth rags.
  2. Apply disinfectant: Spray a commercial-grade disinfectant evenly across all dry surfaces.
  3. Allow for dwell time: Leave the solution on the surface for 7 to 10 minutes to effectively neutralize surface pathogens. Do not wipe the surface dry; allow it to air dry naturally to complete the sanitation process.

Key Accessories for Maintaining a Hygienic Restroom 

  • Sanitary Bed Liners: Provide a clean barrier between the changing bed and the infant.
  • The Diaper PouchTM disposal bags: Help contain dirty diapers and odors before disposal.
  • Wall-mounted bag hook (sold separately): Keep personal belongings and diaper bags off the floor and within easy reach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find replacement parts?

Replacement parts are available for many components, although some damage may require replacing the entire unit. For help finding the product you have installed and replacement parts for your baby changing station, visit our Replacements Parts page.

What cleaner is safest to use on my baby changing station?

Because Koala Kare changing surfaces are constructed from polypropylene infused with Microban® product protection, which inhibits the growth of stain and odor-causing bacteria on the surface. However, it is important to kill pathogens like E. coli or norovirus without leaving a toxic residue that a baby can absorb through their skin or ingest by putting their hands in their mouth. For that reason, avoid using bleach, even if it is diluted with water. Instead, the industry standard for commercial washrooms is to use a mild detergent that is allowed to dwell and air dry.

How do I clean the safety straps?

Use a soft-bristled nylon brush or microfiber cloth paired with a disinfectant spray to scrub the weave of the strap. If the strap is frayed or permanently stained, replace it completely.

What are the best liners to use on my baby changing station?

Koala Kare Sanitary Bed Liners are designed for use with all Koala Kare baby changing stations and fit both built-in and wall-mounted liner dispensers. Made from three-ply biodegradable paper in a moisture-resistant quilted design, the liners are 100% recyclable and made from 50% recycled material. Each case contains 500 liners.

How often should commercial changing tables be inspected?

We recommend regular checks while cleaning the baby changing stations. Ensure there are no odors or dirt on either the unit itself or the adjoining wall and floor. Regularly test that the table opens smoothly. Replace the shock kit if it drops heavily or falls quickly. If the baby changing station contains micro-cracks in the plastic, the unit should be replaced.

Time for a new baby changing station?

Even with regular maintenance, baby changing stations eventually reach the end of their life cycle. When routine cleaning is no longer enough to keep an aging station in good condition or if your current station looks really dated , it may be time for a replacement. The KB300 and KB301 feature built-in Microban product protection to help inhibit stain- and odor-causing bacteria between cleanings.

Whether you are looking to upgrade or need to keep your current equipment in top shape, we are here to help. Visit the Maintenance Matters page for comprehensive cleaning resources, care guides, and our replacement parts finder.

Go Beyond the High Chair to Provide Restaurant Seating for All of Childhood’s Stages

On a Friday night at a busy restaurant during dinner rush, a family with a baby in a car seat and a toddler walks in to eat. But there aren’t enough high chairs available, and the table is too tall for the toddler. The family rethinks coming back to this establishment due to this inconvenience.

Restaurants not offering the correct mix of child seating options can be a common scenario. Most mainstream restaurants understand the value of family dining and offer some child seating. However, a common oversight is treating child seating as a one-size-fits-all requirement. A toddler has vastly different needs than a newborn in an infant car carrier.

Providing a welcoming environment for families means catering to every stage of childhood development. Offering incompatible seating or expecting parents to improvise creates safety hazards, slows down service, and harms your business’s reputation.

Here are the three critical stages of child seating, the operational factors to consider for each, and how to select the right seating solutions for your dining room.

Stage 1: Infant Seating Solutions

The infant stage is one of the most frequently overlooked phases in commercial restaurant design. Parents arriving with newborns almost always carry them in heavy, bulky infant car seat carriers.

Unaware that it is a safety hazard, parents may want to flip traditional restaurant high chairs upside down and then balance the infant carrier between the legs. However, high chairs are not designed to support the weight or shape of an infant carrier in an inverted position. Doing so creates an unstable, top-heavy arrangement that can easily be knocked over by a passing server, a sudden bump, or the movement of the baby.

What to Look for in Infant Seating

Low maintenance materials: Look for removable, machine-washable, or easy-to-sanitize fabrics and materials that handle accidental spills with ease.

Infant-specific engineering: Choose seating specifically engineered to hold infant carriers securely off the floor.

Compact, foldable footprint: Select cradles that fold flat when not in use for easy storage so they don’t obstruct high-traffic server aisles.

Stage 2: Restaurant High Chairs for Toddlers

Once children can sit upright independently (around 6 months to 3 years old), they move into Stage 2 seating, which is in high chairs. Restaurant high chairs are heavily used, so durability and hygiene are critical.

What to Look for in Commercial High Chairs

  • Anti-inversion design: Modern high chairs should be intentionally designed with curved frames or specific geometry so they cannot be turned upside down, eliminating the possibility of improper use and liability.
  • Easy-to-clean surface: Wood high chairs often warp, splinter, or absorb liquids over time, with crevices that trap food particles. Modern plastic models that feature seamless, nonporous surfaces can be easily wiped down instantly between table turns.
  • Safety compliance: Ensure the high chair meets current ASTM standards and features secure three-point restraint systems to prevent slips and falls.
  • Table-height ergonomics: Opt for table-height seating that allows children to eat directly off the restaurant table alongside their family, eliminating the need for bulky, hard-to-clean trays.

Stage 3: Commercial Booster Seats for Young Children

The third stage serves children who have outgrown restaurant high chairs but are still too short to reach the table comfortably from standard dining chairs or booths (typically ages 3 to 5).

Without a proper booster, children end up kneeling on chairs or slouching, leading to uncomfortable meals and fidgety behavior that affects nearby guests.

What to Look for in Restaurant Booster Seats

  • Secure attachment: High-quality boosters feature integrated security straps to anchor the booster firmly to the adult chair, preventing shifts or slides while the child moves.
  • Surface protection: Boosters should feature nonskid, nonscratching feet that grip both hardwood and upholstered chairs without damaging the restaurant’s furniture.

Elevate Your Family Dining Experience with Koala Kare

Providing a family-friendly environment requires having the right seating options for every age. In addition to safety and functionality, consider the visual harmony of your floor space. Mixing mismatched wooden high chairs, plastic boosters, and metal frames can make your dining room feel cluttered. Selecting seating lines designed to complement one another across all three stages creates a polished, professional look that aligns with your business’s interior design.

At Koala Kare Products, we offer a comprehensive lineup of commercial-grade child seating built for every developmental stage and aesthetic:

By coordinating your seating choices across all three stages, you ensure safety compliance, streamline table turns for your staff, and present a cohesive, professional look throughout your dining space.

How Koala Kare Products Show Your Commitment to Hygiene

Restroom hygiene is more significant than ever, and Koala Kare Products and accessories make it simple to promote restroom hygiene at your business.

When the COVID–19 pandemic began in 2020, hygiene practices in public spaces became one of the most important things for business owner/operators and facility managers to understand, prioritize and enhance, with restrooms drawing some of the most attention. As consumers begin to return to normalcy, we will undoubtedly learn that they now prioritize hygiene more than ever when it comes to decisions about where to spend their time and money.

Since child accommodation products like baby changing stations are often overlooked when it comes to hygiene, it’s important to take the time now to ensure that your facilities have accommodations for patrons with children and that they are in good working order. Doing so promotes hygiene and helps maintain a sanitary environment for patrons with children.

Koala Kare’s range of innovative, durable baby changing stations offers solutions that address today’s increased hygiene expectations and help maintain a clean restroom environment. In particular, the KB300 platform – our newest and most advanced baby changing stations – comes with an enhanced bed liner dispenser, external stainless steel bag hook for keeping diaper bags off the floor, and built-in Microban® product protection to reinforce your facility’s enhanced commitment to hygiene.

Of course, making sure your establishment’s products are clean and hygienic isn’t just essential for satisfying your customers – it’s also important for keeping your Koala Kare products functioning properly. We even offer convenient maintenance guides and easy-to-order replacement parts to extend the life of your Koala products.

Antimicrobial Protection

Did you know: 75% of consumers believe that antimicrobial products are effective at preventing the growth of bacteria, and 97% of consumers cited Microban® product protection as very important in public restrooms.

At a time when patrons are especially concerned about germs and bacteria in public restrooms, Koala Kare’s baby changing stations, which are designed with Microban® Product Protection, make it simple to provide a hygienic experience. For years, we have exclusively partnered with Microban® to integrate powerful antimicrobial product protection into our baby changing stations to inhibit the growth of stain- and odor-causing bacteria on product surfaces.

In fact, Koala Kare was the first maker of baby changing stations to introduce Microban® antimicrobial product protection to the market, helping to address the important cleanliness concerns of caregivers.

Sanitary Accessories

To take your restroom’s hygiene to the next level, consider using Koala Kare’s convenient accessory products to help keep your baby changing stations clean and your restrooms odor-free.

The Diaper Pouch™ is one of Koala Kare’s newest baby changing station accessories, which easily helps improve the appearance and hygiene of any public restroom. Making The Diaper Pouch available in your restrooms gives patrons a way to properly dispose of unsightly used diapers and reduces or eliminates troublesome odors in the restroom. Each Diaper Pouch cartridge dispenses 175 easy-to-open diaper disposal sacks and fits in the liner dispenser of Koala Kare baby changing stations.

Like The Diaper Pouch, Koala’s sanitary bed liners dispense from the baby changing station for easy access. The bed liners have a moisture-resistant quilted design that provides a disposable barrier between the changing surface and child. By offering Koala’s sanitary bed liners and diaper disposal bags, you can provide patrons greater peace of mind by signaling your facility’s commitment to hygiene. The Diaper Pouch and sanitary bed liners, as well as other Koala accessories, can be easily ordered from our accessories page on Koalabear.com.
