What to Look For When Buying An Electric Hand Dryer

Are you in the market for excellent, high-quality electric hand dryers? Perhaps you’re setting up small service business, such as a café or restaurant.  Or perhaps you simply want the convenience of having hand dryers in your home due to the saving they’ll represent in terms of paper.  Whichever the case, what you’re probably going to need will be reliable, reasonably priced electric hand dryers which excel in giving you more bang for your buck.Automatic hand dryers have become increasingly popular over the years.

Finally, a recent breakthrough called Steritouch surface hygiene, also developed by the World Dryer Corporation, has finally succeed in addressing the problem of bacterial growth.  Steritouch is an antibacterial and antifungal additive which can decrease the number of bacteria that can grow and propagate in electric hand dryers, including the much feared methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (or MRSA).  By having gusts of this product regularly released into the filters of hand dryers, infection by way of this sort of bacteria is now far more readily prevented.So, it seems, that for those debating the benefits of buying paper roll dispensers or electric hand dryers for their homes or businesses, that the writing is well and truly on the wall.  Not only will choosing to install an electric hand dryer be the best you can do for old mother nature -  it will also save you a bundle by way of energy and labor costs.
