The Vollrath flush-mount unwrapped straw dispenser installs into the front face of a service counter, storing 200 unwrapped straws up to 8-3/4" long in a recessed installation that keeps the counter surface clear. The metered dispensing mechanism releases one straw at a time — maintaining hygiene by keeping the remaining supply enclosed and inaccessible during dispensing.

Flush-mount unwrapped straw dispensing addresses both the hygienic and operational challenges of bulk straw service at self-serve counters. Countertop bulk straw holders, while high-capacity, occupy counter space and expose the entire straw supply to ambient contact from the accessible open top. A flush-mount dispenser with one-at-a-time dispensing eliminates both issues: the straw supply is enclosed within the counter body, and guests retrieve individual straws from a metered dispensing mechanism rather than reaching into an open straw supply.
The one-at-a-time dispensing mechanism is the hygiene-critical feature. When a guest reaches into an open bulk straw holder, their hand contacts the entire accessible straw supply — any straws their hand touches but doesn't take are now hand-contaminated and returned to the bulk supply. A metered dispenser prevents this: each straw that emerges from the dispensing opening is the one straw the guest requested, and the remaining 199 straws in the holder have never been touched.
At 200-straw capacity, the flush-mount dispenser holds a meaningful supply for a service period at a standard self-serve beverage counter. The loading operation requires access to the dispenser body — typically from behind or above the counter face depending on installation orientation — allowing staff to reload without removing or repositioning the unit.
The 9-1/8" x 5-3/4" cutout is the largest among the Vollrath FMS flush-mount straw series — the metered dispensing mechanism requires a wider opening than a simple straw holder to accommodate the mechanism housing. Counter planning should account for this larger cutout and the structural requirements around it.
Black ABS plastic construction. The flush-mount metered unwrapped straw dispensing solution for commercial self-serve counter installations where hygiene and counter space conservation are both priorities.
