Toothpaste pump dispenser

The toothpaste pump, also known as or toothpaste pump dispenser, is a device used to contain and dispense toothpaste, akin to a tube. An automatic toothpaste dispenser is a self-starting way to dispense toothpaste.

Pump

Unlike a tube, a toothpaste pump, it is made of a hard plastic and functions by pressing a knob on top rather than squeezing the tube.[1] Henkel were the first sell their toothpaste in a pump in West Germany, and it was marketed in the United States beginning in 1984. A toothpaste pump was first marketed by Marks & Spencer in the United Kingdom in 1982.[1] Unilever and Colgate began marketing their toothpaste pumps soon after.[1]

Automated dispenser

An automatic toothpaste dispenser is a wall-mounted device used to dispense toothpaste by pressing the toothbrush against the inside plates of the dispenser, so it automatically squeezes an appropriate amount of toothpaste and avoids waste.[2][3] Most modern automatic dispensers incorporate a toothbrush holder, and in some of the advanced models the holder also functions as a toothbrush sanitizer.[4]
