The fastest to dry hands hygenically
with HEPA filtered air.
Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers 01 02
Why do we put up with products
that don’t work properly?
In 1907, paper towels were introduced
to washrooms. The electric hand dryer
made its first appearance in 1948.
But both have changed little since –
they can still be expensive, unhygienic
and harmful to the environment.
At Dyson, our engineers didn’t think
that was good enough. So in 2006,
they put a century of poor performing
hand drying methods to rest – with
the invention of Airblade™ technology.
The Dyson Airblade Tap hand dryer installed
in the washrooms of a leading F1 team.
03 04Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
Paper towels are expensive,
have a high impact on the
environment and cause extra
washroom maintenance
through mess and blockages.
And because dispensers are
often found empty, leaving no
way to dry hands, paper towels
can create hygiene issues
beyond the washroom.
The problems
with paper towels
Did you know?
Ensuring hands are dry is crucial
for maintaining hygiene levels,
as damp hands can spread up
to 1,000 times more bacteria
to the surfaces they touch.
05 06Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
The problems with
other hand dryers
Have you ever looked inside a drain tank?
Some hand dryers collect waste water
using drain tanks. But these are
unhygienic – providing the perfect
breeding ground for bacteria.
Drain tanks must be emptied and
cleaned regularly – adding time and
effort to the washroom maintenance
process, and risking spillage of
waste water during disposal.
Warm air dryers
Warm air dryers are slow.
Which means they’re energy hungry,
expensive to run and unhygienic.
Dry times can take up to 43 seconds,
so many users give up before their
hands are dry – risking increased
spread of bacteria.
Jet dryers
Other jet dryers might look like
a Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer,
but when it comes to performance,
there’s no comparison. Thanks to
weak motors, most other jet dryers
can’t generate the fast airflow
needed to dry hands quickly.
They can also lack the power
required to draw the air through
a HEPA filter.
So most other jet dryers aren’t just
slower than Airblade™ technology,
they’re less hygienic too.
Did you know?
Public health specialists NSF state
that to be cer tified as hygienic,
a hand dryer must dry hands
in 15 seconds or less.
Did you know?
In recent testing, Dyson
microbiologists detected greater
levels of bacteria in a drain tank
than levels that can be found in
the average household toilet.1

No other hand
dryer has this
technology
Dyson digital motor V4 HEPA filter
++=
Dyson digital motor V4
Conventional motors are bulky, slow
and can be inefficient. They also rely on
carbon brushes, which wear out over time.
The Dyson digital motor V4 is different.
It’s one of the world’s smallest fully
integrated 1600W motors, and instead
of old-fashioned carbon brushes, it uses
digital pulse technology to spin up to three
times faster than a conventional motor.
HEPA filter
Bacteria and viruses in washrooms
can cause colds, flu, sickness, diarrhoea
or worse. Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
have HEPA filters installed as standard,
which capture 99.9% of bacteria and
viruses in the washroom air. So hands
are dried with cleaner air, not dirty air.
Airblade™ technology
Every second, the Dyson digital motor
V4 draws in up to 35 litres of air through
a HEPA filter, and forces it through apertures
up to 0.8 mm wide. The result –430 mph
sheets of filtered air that scrape water from
hands, drying them quickly and hygienically.
The latest Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
are powered by the Dyson digital motor V4 –
one of the world’s smallest, fully-integrated
1600W motors. Its small size and power
density are what have made our latest
hand dryer technology possible.
It means you’ll now find a compact Dyson
hand dryer that’s just 10 centimetres deep –
and one that’s 50% quieter than the original
but still dries hands in 10 seconds. You’ll even
find Airblade™ technology in a tap at the sink.

Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
Airblade™ technology
is fast and the most hygienic
Hygienically drying hands is
as important as washing them
Bacteria and viruses deposited by
hands onto surfaces can survive
for several hours. When others
touch these contaminated
surfaces, they can be transferred.
Damp hands can spread up to
1,000 times more bacteria than
dry hands. It’s why it’s important
that hands are dried properly.
The most hygienic hand dryer
Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
use HEPA filters. 99.9% of bacteria
and viruses in the washroom air
are captured. So hands are dried
in 12 seconds or less using cleaner
air, not dirty air. Both the Dyson
Airblade V hand dryer and the
Dyson Airblade dB hand dryer
contain an antibacterial additive
which can help prevent the
growth of bacteria.
No drain tank
When you dry your hands with
a Dyson Airblade V hand dryer
or Dyson Airblade dB hand dryer,
waste water is designed to drip
onto the floor where it evaporates –
so bacteria dry out and perish.
But some hand dryers use drain
tanks to collect waste water –
providing the perfect breeding
ground for bacteria.
That’s unhygienic.

With their slow dry times and lack of
HEPA filtration, maintaining a hygienic
washroom means avoiding other hand
dryers altogether. But as you can see from
the graph, paper towels are an expensive
alternative. While paper towels can be
just as hygienic as a Dyson Airblade™
hand dryer, their higher fixed running
costs add up and up. And up.

Low impact on the environment
Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers have
a lower environmental impact across
measures including carbon emissions
and energy consumption.1
1 In collaboration with Carbon Trust, Dyson has produced a method to measure the environmental
impact of electrical appliances and paper towels. The carbon calculations were produced using
GaBi software provided by PE International, based on product use over 5 years and using the
US as a representative country of use. Dry times for products were evaluated using DTM 769.

The environmental
impact of paper towels
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 range.
From cutting down trees, through
chemical processes to disposal –
using paper towels has a significant
impact on the environment.
Every single component
All components inside the Dyson
Airblade™ hand dryer were assessed.
Materials and manufacture contribute
8% of total emissions.
Waterways vs. highways
Constant paper towel restocking relies
on road transport. Dyson Airblade™
hand dryers use energy-efficient
ships – representing less than
1% of total emissions.
Less energy = less carbon
Airblade™ technology has fast dry
times and no energy-hungry heating
elements. So it uses up to 80% less
energy than warm air dryers.
End of life
With a 5 year guarantee, the
Dyson Airblade™hand dryer is built
to last. Even so, many components
are designed to be recyclable with
negligible environmental impact.
Felling trees
Trees are a major source
of pulp for virgin paper
towel production.
Transportation
Once trees are felled they
need to be transported from
the forest to the mill.
Mix with water
Lots of water and energy
are needed to make paper.
Pulping and bleaching
Chemicals are also used
in the bleaching process.
Maintenance
Paper towel dispensers
need constant restocking.
Disposal
Most used paper towels
cannot be recycled. They have
to be disposed of. Used paper
towels, packaging and bin
liners end up in landfill or
an incinerator.

Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers
It all began with James Dyson himself,
who wondered if a vacuum cleaner
really needed that bag. Later, Dyson
engineers discovered hand dryers
could dry hands without heat.
And fans didn’t have to use
blades to cool you down.
At Dyson, we’ve been challenging
the conventions of existing technology
for over 20 years. Our engineers use
this approach every day – helping
us invent new machines that simply
work better. And we’re only just
getting started.

Fold paper towel once,
place on digital scales
and record weight.
Place both hands in water
container up to level of wrist
crease for five seconds. Rub
hands in the water to remove
trapped air and bubbles.
Remove hands from container
and let water drip from hands
for five seconds.
Place hands under dryer 5cm
from outlet. Dry hands according
to manufacturer’s instructions.
If these instructions include
rubbing then rub hands at a rate
of two times per five seconds.
Once air begins to flow from
dryer start to rub and dry
hands. Commence drying
process by rubbing palms
together twice.
Continue drying process
by rolling hands twice.
Continue drying process by
interlocking and unlocking
hands twice.
Remove excess water from
hands (between fingers and
wrist) with paper towel until
hands feel dry. Roll towel into
a ball and place on scales
within five seconds.
Re-weigh the towel
and record the weight.
Repeat the test for all six
volunteers and calculate the
mean dry time of the six tests.
The machine will be considered
‘hygienic’ only if the unit can
effectively dry hands to less
than 0.1g o f re s i d u al moist u r e
within 15 seconds.
A ny thi n g over 0 .1g of mois ture
