The most hygienic hand dryer
If a hand dryer doesn't have this logo on it, it's not certified hygienic by NSF.
NSF International, leading public health and safety company, agree that the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer is the only hygienic hand dryer and the first to meet NSF Protocol P335.
Paper towels dry hands hygienically. Only half the story.
You can dry your hands hygieneically with paper towels - but doing so creates a problem. Disposing of the towels can involve contact with trashcans overflowing with damp towels. This is a potential hygiene hazard.*
Worse still, paper towels can run out, leaving you unable to dry your hands. And damp hands can spread up to 1,000 times more bacteria than dry ones**.
The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer dries hands hygienically. End of story.
The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer is the most hygienic hand dryer, as certified by NSF - a public health specialist.
It works in just 12 seconds - scraping water from hands like a windshield wiper. It's the fastest hand dryer, removing over 99.9% of bacteria from the air before it reaches hands.
Unlike paper towels, there are no trashcans to touch. There's no unhygienic waste to dispose of. And without reliance on restocking, you'll always be able to dry your hands.

What is NSF Protocol P335?
The lengths we go to (and this is only one test!)The protocol sets out the standards a hand dryer must meet to be considered hygienic.
The criteria for a hygienic hand dryer include:
- Air filtration – Dust and bacteria must be removed from the air used to dry hands.
- Unheated air – The air used shouldn’t be heated up. Warming moist bacteria can increase their reproduction rate. Warm or hot air can remove beneficial oils from the skin.
- Drying time – Hands must be dried in 15 seconds or under. Damp hands pick up and transfer up to 1,000 times more bacteria than dry hands.
- Touch-free operation – The hand dryer must start and stop automatically.
The Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer meets every criteria NSF International set, making it the most hygienic hand dryer.
