Hand Dryers to Go Green and Noise-free in the Coming Years

The growing green wave across all industrial verticals has also forced the hand dryer industry to bring eco-friendly innovations. Eco-friendly hand dryers are expected to be the next breakthrough in the overall hand dryer industry. Apart from that, the rising demand for energy-efficient and fast, high-speed jet dryers are forecast to offer ample growth opportunities for the manufacturers. The manufacturing units are continuously unveiling innovative products with efficient motors that consume less energy.

What Can We Expect from Today’s Green Hand Dryers?

Some of the recent innovations in hand dryers use a significant percentage of less energy than conventional dryers. As a result, it protects the environment. Some green models even turn off the heating element in order to limit the use of energy. It helps facilities to save money on electricity usage. For instance, the eXtremeAir EXT by American Dryer costs nearly 18 cents per 1,000 hands dried. The technology consumes 540 watts and is also able to handle around three EXT hand dryers on one line.

Another excellent eco-friendly option is the XLERATOReco. XLERATOReco does not use heat but still dries hands in 15 seconds while using only 500 watts. Another advantage is that three XLERATORecos can be installed on a single line, lowering installation costs.

Excel Dryer also introduced its Made in the USA XLERATOReco® hand dryer, which is considered a perfect sustainable restroom solution. The product draws nearly 4.5 Amps and allows the installation of up to three units on one 20 Amp circuit.

Growing Demand for Noise-Free or Low-Noise Hand Dryers

Hand dryers make noise due to the components like motors, blades, and fans. Loud dryers are not convenient for children in schools. Thus, innovations related to low-noise or noise-free dryers have become a necessity. However, some hand dryers produce minimal sound. For instance, Valens Hand dryer with HEPA filter is an automatic hand dryer that uses an advanced sensor to detect hands. The technology uses a HEPA filter to separate dust and bacteria. Apart from that, Awoco Commercial Hand Dryer and WBHome Ultra-Thin hand dryer are known for producing low noise.

In addition to that, the demand for high speed, low energy, and child-friendly electric hand dryers are increasing steeply. Thus, it is opportunistic for the manufacturers to unveil the desired features and increase revenue growth. Companies in the electric hand dryer market are surging R&D for internal UV (Ultraviolet) protection technology equipped with debris-catching filters.

Low Maintenance Electric Hand Dryers

Hand dryers are used in almost every public place, including hospitals, supermarkets, stations, commercial spaces, schools, colleges, and airports. However, the high cost of installation of these devices has been a significant obstacle in the industry growth. Thus, the launch of cost-effective solutions can gain significant traction in the coming years.

The demand for hand dryers is increasing at a rapid pace, owing to growing health concerns and the prevalence of infectious diseases. They are considered more cost-effective and environmentally friendly than paper towels. According to a study by Astute Analytica, the global hand dryer market is forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.82% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.
