Dyson Airblade AB04-W White Polycarbonate Hygienic Automatic High Speed Hand Dryer

Traditionally, hand dryers have depended upon evaporation induced by a stream of warm air to remove moisture from hands, which usually works...eventually. Despite many of the benefits of hand dryers over paper towels, such as energy efficiency, a vast reduction of waste, huge cost savings and cleaner, more hygienic facilities, the most popular complaint against hand dryers is that they just take too long. This was the problem faced by a team of Dyson engineers who spent 3 years analyzing past hand dryer problems to come up with a solution for the future. Employing a completely new type of technology, Dyson engineers created a system which chucks the concept of 'evaporation by warm air' and embraces the concept of a high velocity 'blade' of air. The Dyson Airblade forces room temperature, unheated and clean air through a tiny 0.3 mm gap along its 9" width at 400 miles per hour! The end result of this is that hands are completely dry within 12 seconds.
