KOLO’s system is powered by Cloud-based wireless technologies and sensors.

The system is linked to restroom fixtures such as toilets, sinks and urinals and alerts facility staff through a mobile or web application if something requires their immediate attention.

It is also linked to customer feedback monitors to ensure that problems in the restrooms are quickly addressed.

Atlanta Airlines Terminal Company president and CEO Kofi Smith said: “We know that commercial restrooms are a major source of user frustration and complaints.

“We’re delighted AATC and Hartsfield-Jackson have selected GP PRO and our innovative technology to help make a real and positive impact on travellers passing through there.”

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is said to be the world’s busiest airport, with more than 100 million passengers each year.
