The Dyson Airblade hand dryer is a breakthrough in hand-dryer technology. Fitted with a HEPA filter that removes over 99.9% of bacteria from the air used to dry hands, the Dyson Airblade hand dryer creates a high speed sheet of unheated air by forcing it through an aperture the width of an eye lash to dry hands in just 12 seconds.
Powered by the Dyson digital motor, the Dyson Airblade hand dryer uses up to 80% less energy than warm air hand dryers offering significant savings in running costs. And it avoids paper towel waste going to landfill. Because of this, the USGBC awards certification points to buildings that install it. It conserves energy, manages loads, and reduces operational waste and pollution. The Dyson Airblade hand dryer is the only hand dryer with the Carbon Reduction Label from the Carbon Trust and is also a GreenSpec-listed product as recommended by BuildingGreen.
