Tap into better technology for your washroom
Dyson tells us how their new Airblade Tap can help improve washroom efficiency.
The original Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer was the first and only hand dryer to get endorsement by HACCP International, for use in all food handling areas; the new Dyson Airblade™ Tap and Dyson Airblade™ MK2 hand dryers have now joined it.
Airblade™ technology dries hands quickly, effectively and hygienically. The problem with others is a matter of technology; conventional hand dryers rely on evaporation to dry hands, which is slow and ineffective. Water is chased around hands by a feeble gust of dirty washroom air. Most people simply give up, dripping water all over the floor in the process, and wiping their hands on their clothes.

But wet hands spread up to 1,000 times more bacteria than dry ones. Drying hands properly in 10-12 seconds (compared with 18-43 seconds with warm air hand dryers), reduces the chances of bacterial spread associated with wet or only partially dry hands.
Paper towels can be used, but are problematic. Dispensers need constant re-stocking and towels need to be disposed of; they can end up on the floor of busy washroom environments, while overflowing bins stuffed full of paper towels can also be an issue. Even recycled ones have one of the highest carbon footprints, when compared with any other hand drying method.
Now, Dyson engineers have revolutionised hand drying once again. The Dyson Airblade™ Tap hand dryer, washes and dries hands with no need to leave the sink, meaning there’s no need to drip water all over the floor to grab a towel.
Infrared sensors pinpoint hand positions and release water from the tap stem. Once hands are wet and drying is requested, integrated circuitry computes the information and activates the Dyson digital motor V4, creating two high velocity sheets of air on the tap’s branches.
Using Airblade™ technology, the Dyson Airblade™ Tap hand dryer sends sheets of 430mph unheated,
