Environmental benefits
The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer can help a business reduce its carbon footprint and cut down on landfill waste.
Save on energy costs
Warm air hand dryers are too slow. Some take as long as 44 seconds to dry hands, consuming electricity all the while. There’s an energy-hungry heating element to power, too.
The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer works in just 10 seconds and uses unheated air to dry hands. Intelligent infra-red sensors mean it starts and stops automatically. And the Dyson digital motor consumes only 1600W of power when drying hands.
As a result the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer uses up to 80% less electricity than warm air hand dryers.
Reduce carbon footprint
Paper towels are expensive to buy, re-stock and dispose of – and they generate landfill. In fact, for the cost of a single paper towel, the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer can dry 19 pairs of hands.
Better still, the new AB03 model, made from PC-ABS produces over 50% less CO2 emissions during production than the aluminum equivalent.
The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer is the first hand dryer to be awarded the Carbon Reduction Label from the Carbon Trust and is committed to reducing its carbon footprint further by 2012.
By changing to the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer a business can make immediate savings and significantly reduce its carbon footprint. Find out how much with our carbon cost calculator.
