Step 'n Wash receives "Best New Product" Award
Atlanta, GA - (November 16, 2007) - Inspired leadership, ingenuity and product safety have earned Step ‘n Wash, Inc. the award of "Best New Product" from IAAPA, the largest international trade association for amusement facilities worldwide.
As 27,000 people from 98 nations participated in the IAAPA Attractions Expo 2007 last week, Step ‘n Wash stood out amongst others as a widely popular product that is revolutionizing the all too familiar and uncomfortable hoisting position that parents, grandparents and caregivers encounter as they try and wash children’s hands in public restrooms.
The advanced engineering and design of Step 'n Wash makes it the first and only retractable step to provide children with a safe platform to safely and effectively wash their hands.
When asked about the award, Joi Sumpton, Step 'n Wash Founder and President added, "A lot of talented people have worked very hard over the past two years to make Step 'n Wash what it is today and it's extremely gratifying to have those efforts recognized by such a prominent association."
