Washroom air can contain microscopic particles, including bacteria and viruses

That's why all Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers always use HEPA filters. Proven to capture 99.95% of particles,1 including bacteria and viruses. And drying your hands with HEPA-purified air, not dirty air.

Fast, hygienic hand drying

Leaving a washroom with damp hands is likely to transmit up to 1,000 times more bacteria than dry hands.2 So drying hands effectively is just as important as washing them.

Which is why Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers have a 10-14 second dry time,3 and are proven to reduce the transfer of bacteria on hands by up to 40%.4
