Bradley Corp., a provider of products for commercial washrooms, introduced a light-powered handwashing fixture. The patent-pending ndite technology developed by Bradley converts restroom lighting to energy, which activates the flow of water to its Express SS and MG series lavatory systems.
The Bradley ndite technology uses photovoltaic cells integrated into the top of the Express Lavatory System to convert light into electricity. The company says that whether it’s natural light or normal room-level lighting, the cells capture light when it is available and store the energy for later use in a battery-free system. The company’s technology eliminates the need for electrical hook-ups.
