The patented under-cabinet or countertop dispenser and its 40 reusable, machine washable towels provide convenience and sustainability in the kitchen and beyond.

WATERVLIET, Mich. , Oct. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Clean up everyday messes with Yowel, a convenient, sustainable and sanitary reusable towel system launching today.

The United States uses more than 13 billion pounds of paper towels annually. Globally, discarded paper towels result in 254 million tons of trash every year. Yowel's system provides sustainability by eliminating the need to repeatedly buy paper towels. The reusable towels are durable and long lasting to save money, protect the environment and reduce waste.

Yowel mimics a paper towel system by providing convenience and cleanliness in both storage and usage. The patented, easy to fill dispenser makes it simple to grab a handful of clean, washed towels and place them back into the opening, without having to organize them in any specific way. Refills are quick and easy. The dispenser can hold up to 40 towels, comparable to the standard paper towel roll. Tests have shown the towels can be washed more than 100 times, which equates to over 4,000 uses.

"I was using a ton of paper towels and wondered how easy it would be to change this habit with the right system. After I created the first Yowel prototype, my paper towel habit was transformed," said Steve Krengel , founder and creator of Yowel. "The dispenser was easy to refill, the reusable towels were sturdier, and washing them was never a hassle. They would simply be washed with the dish towels."

Yowel includes a mesh laundry bag making care easy to manage. Simply collect used towels in the bag, and then empty the bag in the washing machine for convenient and sanitary care. The laundry bag is machine washable, too.

"The statistics on the negative impacts of paper towels are eye-popping so my goal was to make a cost-effective, sanitary product that's also environmentally friendly," Krengel said.

Studies show that if every U.S. household reduced their use of just one 70-sheet roll of paper towels, it would save more than half a million trees every year. Yowel is not only a sustainable solution but it's also cost-effective. Americans spend an average of $120 on paper goods every year. Yowel is an affordable, quality alternative to expensive reusable towels.

Save money and time with Yowel. It's good for consumers and better for the environment. Yowel is available to pre-order by visiting pr.go2.fund/yowel.

Call me the world’s happiest cynic, then, because when I predicted the utter and catastrophic failure of Facebook’s rebranding as “Meta” starting less than a year ago, I genuinely didn’t think it would all unravel as quickly and ignominiously as it has. Horizon Worlds, Meta’s intended metaverse, went live in December and, my god, it has been downhill from there. The good news is that we’re getting a lot of free entertainment out of Mark Zuckerberg’s attempts to be “the face” of this dead-end transition, and the past few weeks have seen some real highlights, culminating with a transcendently embarrassing appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast last week.

Chinese stocks have come under pressure for various reasons over the past year and a half or so; a slowing economy has been one cause while domestic tussles with the regulators haven’t helped either, particularly for those in the tech sector. Another element keeping sentiment low and impacting performance has been the fear of de-listing for U.S.-listed Chinese stocks. This is on account of Chinese companies not meeting U.S. auditing standards. But the prospects of de-listing might be less likely
