PeopleTowels announced the newest concept in sustainability, a reusable

paper towels to dry your hands in public facilities. They make going
green as easy as drying your hands to save trees and reduce waste. Reuse
is a big message at this year's conference, and PeopleTowels have been
provided to all participants instead of paper towels.
