Founder

Helmtraud and Wilhelm Blatz founded and built up Ille in 1965. Helmtraud Blatz, née Ille, is the company’s namesake. Sales focus, dynamism and service have always been the couple’s top priorities. This philosophy remains central to Ille to this day. The entire team works towards this every day.

Sustainability

We take our responsibility towards people and the environment seriously. Thoughtful design and high hygiene standards are equally important to us. Maximum efficiency in washrooms and toilet facilities, the resource-efficient use of cleaning products, and considerate behaviour make the Ille All-Round Carefree Package a highly sought-after product. Ille strives to live up to this standard every day. Today and in the future. For the sake of our partners and the environment.

Hygiene

Soap and water loosen the dirt on your hands. Some of it is also washed away by the running water. However, the majority of the dirt is only removed with the towel. It is important that the towel is particularly clean and has a large, open-pored surface structure so that it can absorb a lot of dirt. Studies have shown that paper is best suited for this purpose. This is why only paper is permitted in the medical sector. Air dryers can even lead to the proliferation of bacteria. The soap must first feel pleasant and be easy to spread so that the user enjoys using it. Foam soap is ideal for this purpose. Ille foam soap is also characterised by the fact that it allows the skin to quickly replenish its natural oils and restore its natural protective barrier.

Safety

Reliable service is important to us. We take care of the entire ordering process for you. During our regular service visits, the dispensers are checked and serviced. Should a fault nevertheless occur, we will deal with it as quickly as possible. And best of all: you don’t even have to invest in the equipment. Ille takes care of that for you. Financially, you’re working with a strong partner. As a medium-sized family business, Ille now boasts an equity ratio of 75%. Sustainable business practices and the provision of liquid funds are particularly important to the family. This includes the careful selection of suppliers, who must meet high quality standards. Regular visits have led to long-standing, healthy partnerships. We take care to ensure that no dependencies arise. Consistent availability of supplies is important to us. So that you can afford to keep a small stock, Ille keeps large quantities in stock for you, which we can deliver immediately if required.

Commitment & Service

Ille is particularly committed to its business partners. This fosters long-standing, trusting partnerships. This applies equally to customers and suppliers. Through personalised advice provided by our sales team at your premises, we find a hygiene solution tailored specifically to your needs. This service ensures that no unnecessary equipment is used and resources are conserved. In an emergency, Ille also delivers at weekends and on public holidays. Continuous training and professional development ensure quality. New ideas emerge, and the company is constantly evolving. Always one step ahead.

Integrity

The “honourable merchant” serves as a role model for our management. Foresight leads to sustainable business practices and reliable business relationships. Fair dealings on an equal footing, honouring commitments and the flexible adaptation of our product range in special circumstances characterise Ille’s conduct. We handle your data with trust and care. We strictly observe anti-corruption rules and abide by the law. We also require our foreign subsidiaries to adhere to our ethical principles. Honest tax payment in every national subsidiary leads to social harmony. This is important to Ille.

Quality & Efficiency

Our engineers tackle your wet area challenges with German precision. The dispensers’ outstanding design and flawless functionality ensure a cost-effective overall solution – a fact confirmed by over 40,000 satisfied customers across Europe. Our dispensers and soaps are manufactured exclusively in Germany. Paper is sourced from the EU and meets the very highest quality standards, which are closely monitored by Ille. On request, paper from a supply chain with FSC certification can be supplied. Ille’s high-quality paper and soaps are dispensed in optimal quantities by the dispensers. Lower-quality products, such as thin, stiff paper with few layers, can absorb only small amounts of water and dirt. Consequently, a lot of paper is used, resulting in waste. Ille’s quality products lead to reduced waste volumes and the conservation of resources.
