Damp hands can spread up to 1,000 times more bacteria than dry hands.*
Effective hand hygiene always starts with thorough hand washing followed by drying your hands properly.

Bacteria and viruses deposited onto surfaces can survive for several hours. When these contaminated surfaces are touched, bacteria can be transferred. That's why it's important that hands are dried thoroughly.

Airblade™ technology. Always HEPA filtered.
Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers feature touch-free technology
