Dyson Airblade 9 kJ hand dryers - Restaurant Silvoplee

Challenge

For a restaurant serving clean and organic vegetarian food, hygiene and cleanliness are of paramount importance, including in the toilets. In the past, Silvopleche has been plagued by towels dropped or thrown on the toilet floor. The owner also wanted to find a more ecological alternative to paper towels.

Solution

The Dyson 9kJ hand dryer met the criteria for a hygienic and safe hand drying solution. Its fast drying time of 10-12 seconds reduces queuing times to the toilet. Other plus points are its stylish appearance and its ability to fit into a small space.

Hygienic and safe

The 9kJ hand dryer works automatically - and hygienically - without touching.

To prevent the spread of viruses and bacteria, it is important to minimise touching of toilet surfaces.

The dryer is equipped with HEPA filters that meet stringent hygiene requirements and capture 99.95% of airborne particles such as bacteria and viruses. The unit blows out ultra-clean air. Dyson hand dryers have been proven to be as hygienic as paper towels.

Energy and environmentally friendly

The 9kJ hand dryer is the most energy efficient of the HEPA-filtered hand dryers. It is made of recycled steel, which is in line with Silvople's ethical values. The hand dryers have up to 85% lower carbon footprint than paper towels.

Generating savings

A hand dryer becomes cheaper than using paper towels. The restaurant saves on cleaning costs and employees can concentrate on service and sales, without having to check the cleanliness of the toilets or the sufficiency of paper towels. The use of a dryer also makes the cleaner's job easier. It reduces the amount of rubbish to be taken away and reduces waste disposal costs.
