FAQ

Do Dyson Airblade hand dryers contribute to sustainability certificates?

Yes, points can be earned for both BREEAM, LEED and WELL Building Standard certification by installing Dyson Airblade hand dryers.

Is it true that the powerful airflow of Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers means that more particles are blown through the washroom, increasing the risk of spreading bacteria?

There are a number of studies used by the paper industry to make misleading claims. Generally, these studies have not been conducted under conditions or scenarios that simulate an actual situation that a person might reasonably experience when using a Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer. Researchers who conducted these studies could only achieve such a result by massively contaminating plastic gloves with bacteria and viruses and drying them with a Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer without first washing the hands. Conversely, studies from the University of Bradford and Hong Kong Polytechnic University have shown that Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers actually reduce bacteria on hands when used correctly. New independent research from Dyson on aerosolization shows that drying hands with a Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer causes no more aerosolization than drying with paper towels - and that Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers are hygienic and safe to use.¹ 1 Suen et al. 2019 SR and based on bacteria in air and aerosols (0.3 to> 5 microns) measured during hand drying in 28.5 m3 test chamber, in a study conducted by independent external laboratory.

What does HEPA stand for?

HEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air. A true HEPA filter must meet testing standards EN1822-5 and IEST-RP-CC001.6. A filter that is not classified as a HEPA filter cannot be proven to work as efficiently.

Should I use a paper towel or hand dryer to dry my hands? Which is better?

Washing hands is an essential way to reduce the spread of bacteria and viruses. Drying hands properly is an important step in that process, as damp hands can spread up to 1,000 times more bacteria than dry hands.¹ Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers have been proven to be just as hygienic for drying hands as paper towels, but without the environmental impact or high running costs. 1 Suen et al. 2019 SR and based on bacteria in air and aerosols (0.3 to> 5 microns) measured during hand drying in 28.5 m3 test chamber, in a study conducted by independent external laboratory. 7 Tested in external laboratory according to ISO 22196 for E. coli, Salmonella enterica, Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae and ISO 21702 for H3N2 virus (influenza). 8 Mutters & Warnes (2019) JHI.
