Bemis® Revolutionizes Bathroom Convenience With Easy•2™ Toilet Seat

Company Innovates With Slow-Closing Hinge That Includes Breakthrough Cleaning Technology

SHEBOYGAN FALLS, Wis. (April 16, 2007) - Two of the most common problems associated with household bathrooms have been relinquished with the introduction of the patented Easy•2 hinge by Bemis Manufacturing Company. Through an innovative slow-closing hinge design, the days of waking up to the bang of a slammed seat and the pain of pinched fingers are a thing of the past. In addition, Easy•2 includes a 'lift-off' feature that makes cleaning hard-to-reach places nearly effortless.

Easy•2 is highlighted by the cutting edge slow-closing feature that gently and quietly closes the seat. With a simple tap forward, the seat closes slowly and quietly to reveal the much more pleasant bathroom aesthetics of a closed seat. Moreover, the added conveniences this particular feature provides are ideal for households with small children and pets.

In addition to slowly closing, Easy•2 also features a 'lift-off' hinge design, which dramatically simplifies toilet and toilet seat cleaning duties. Users simply twist the hinges to unlock the seat, and then lift the seat off to reveal hidden areas on the seat and toilet bowl that would otherwise continue to collect germs. Once cleaning is complete, users simply replace the seat's hinges onto two small posts that are connected to the toilet and lock it securely back in place.

Although technology plays a major role in Easy•2's design, style is by no means compromised. And, with the extreme ease of replacing the seat, redecorating or remodeling a bathroom can be a snap. Easy•2 seats feature sleek, contoured designs, allowing it to fit in well with even the most elegant bathroom designs. In addition, the seat's availability in colors will match all toilet bowl manufacturers, providing a seamless look.

For durability and comfort, Easy•2 features color-matched, non-corrosive components and a snug, no-wobble fit, with either a molded wood or polypropylene seat construction for unmatched performance and a uniquely contoured seat, Easy•2 is truly in a class of its own.

"As bathrooms become more functional and luxurious, it only makes sense for us to advance the role of the toilet seat, especially considering the role they play in our everyday lives," says Melissa Glancey, North American Product Manager for Bemis. "With Easy•2, we've taken away two of the biggest annoyances associated with the toilet seat and did it with style and sophistication."

Easy•2 is available in both round and elongated sizes in all Bemis brands including Church®, Mayfair®, Westport® and Bemis®. For a list of retailers or wholesalers that carry Easy•2 in your area, visit www.BemisMfg.com.
