Dyson is about new technology

“�Most�people�only�consider�how�something�is�designed�if�it�doesn’t�work.�The�best�products�evolve�as�part�of�a�design�process,�in�which��the�technology�on�the�inside�informs�the�way��that�they�look�on�the�outside.�Design�is�about��how�something�works,�not�how�it�looks.��It’s�what’s�inside�that�counts.�The�best�design�comes�from�someone�questioning�everything.”

James�DysonInventor

The idea for the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer came about from a Dyson engineer experimenting with pressurized air. He noticed how it scraped water from his hands. Why didn’t all hand dryers work this well?

During its development, Dyson engineers repeatedly washed and dried 70 pairs of rubber hands, refining the technology to find the fastest dry time of 12 seconds. To simulate the harshest restroom environments they also showered prototypes in soup (to replicate vomit) and exerted the weight equivalent of an elephant to ensure robustness.

“�You�put�your�hands�under�other�dryers,�rub�them�a�bit,�then�give�up�and�wipe��your�hands�on�your�pants.�It’s�something��that’s�always�annoyed�me.�Our�new��machine�changes�that.”��James�DysonInventor

How it works

1

Dirty washroom air is sucked in by the Dyson digital motor.

2

It passes through a HEPA filter, removing over 99.9% of the bacteria.

3

The clean air passes over the electronics, cooling them.

4

The air then reaches the motor, which channels it up and through the machine.

5

Air passes into the air ducts which are insulated to reduce noise.

6

It’s then forced through two apertures – creating sheets of air traveling at 400mph.

7

The two sheets of air literally scrape water from hands.

HEPA filter Dirty washroom air is forced through the filter, removing over 99.9% of the bacteria.

Airblade™ technologyThe air is then forced through two continuous apertures the width of a human eyelash. The result, two sheets of 400mph air that scrape water from hands in just 12 seconds.

So no other hand dryer works like it

Saves you money

Only the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer meets every part of NSF Protocol P335

Air filtration Air used to dry hands must be HEPA filtered.

Drying timeHands must be dried in under 15 seconds. NSF have defined dry as 0.1g of moisture.

Touch-free operationThe hand dryer must start and stop without user contact.

If a hand dryer doesn’t have this logo, it’s not certified hygienic.

“ We asked independent public health specialist NSF to define the criteria for a hygienic hand dryer. It’s something no one else had ever done before. The result is NSF Protocol P335 – and the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer is the only hand dryer that meets every part of it. So it’s the only one certified hygienic.”

Karen HallMicrobiologist, Dyson

The most hygienic hand dryer


A recent hand hygiene study by the Bradford University Infection Group has been peer-reviewed and published in the Journal of Applied Microbiology.* The report found that washing hands alone is not enough. Microbial counts on skin actually decrease when hands are dried properly. Drying is now recognized as a vital part of hand hygiene routines.

Out of all machines tested, the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer was found to be the most hygienic – significantly reducing bacteria transfer compared to warm air dryers. And unlike paper towels, Airblade™ technology doesn’t leave trash cans overflowing with soiled paper towels, a potential hygiene hazard.

Scientifically evaluated and approved

* A.M. Snelling et al (2010). Comparative evaluation of the hygiene efficacy of an ultra-rapid hand dryer vs. conventional warm air dryers. The Journal of Applied Microbiology; 110(1); 19-26.

Approved for the food industryHACCP International has certified the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer (AB02) suitable for use in the food industry. It’s the only hand dryer to achieve this accreditation.

Traditionally hand dryers have not been used in food preparation environments. They leave staff with damp hands because they’re too slow, they blow dirty washroom air onto clean hands and their surfaces can harbor bacteria. The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer has a 12 second dry-time, HEPA filter and anti-microbial coating.

The Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point is an internationally recommended system of food safety management.

“ The technology addresses a number of unacceptable risks posed by hand dryers in the past. It’s easy to clean and is a touch-free system. It also has a fast dry cycle. With the inclusion of a HEPA filter, these features combine to reduce considerably the risk of microbiological contamination and there by meet HACCP International’s food safety criteria.“

Clive Withinshaw Director, HACCP International

Switch from paper towelsPaper towel production requires natural resources. And paper towels need constant restocking. Both processes are carbon intensive.

By changing to the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer, you can significantly reduce your carbon footprint.

The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer has a 70% smaller carbon footprint than paper towels.*

Reduces your carbon footprint

12.48gCO2 per dry*

��|��Sustainability

Every single component Materials and manufacture represent 7% of total emissions. The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer has 275 components and even the smallest one was assessed.

Waterways vs. highways Transportation represents less than 1% of total Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer emissions. Most of it is by energy-efficient ships. It’s far lower than paper towels, which continually rely on road transport for re-stocking.

Less energy = less carbon Fast dry time and no energy hungry heating element mean the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer uses up to 80% less energy than warm air dryers.

Hand me down The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer has a 5 year warranty. But when it does eventually stop, many component parts are recyclable and the impact of doing so is a negligible part of its carbon footprint.

No stone left unturned

Everything we make or use has a carbon footprint. It represents the total amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases generated during its life.

Working with the Carbon Trust, Dyson has measured the carbon footprint of the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer. The calculation covers: materials, manufacture, transportation, use and end-of-life disposal.

Only one hand dryer has the Carbon Reduction Label

LEEDUS Green Building Council

Helps buildings achieve LEED rating

The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer conserves energy and reduces operational waste. This helps buildings fitted with Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers apply for LEED points in 2 categories.

1. Energy and Atmosphere: Optimize Energy Performance LEED requires a Minimum Energy Performance – this is the minimum operating

efficiency for the building and its systems. By having energy-efficient technology or operating practices, this can help reduce energy consumption to a satisfactory level.

The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer uses up to 80% less energy than warm air dryers. Therefore it can reduce a building’s energy consumption, helping to meet the requirement for LEED points in this category.

2. Materials and Resources: Sustainable Purchasing and Solid Waste Management – Ongoing ConsumablesThe Sustainable Purchasing policy aims to reduce the environmental impact of materials used in a building’s operation, maintenance and upgrade. The Solid Waste Management policy looks at lowering the amount of waste and toxins that require transportation to, and disposal in, landfills or incineration facilities.

The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer is a sustainable purchase that minimizes environmental impact from materials, manufacture, transportation and end-of-life disposal. Its manufacture requires only 275 components, many of which are recyclable. As well as being energy efficient it generates no paper waste during its lifetime – unlike paper towels. And transportation is largely by energy-efficient ships – again unlike paper towels which rely on continual road transport for re-stocking and disposal. It meets the requirements for LEED points in this category.
