* Required Field

What's flying under the radar?

Using a jet air dryer dispersed 1,300 times more germ particles than drying with paper towels. Even with HEPA filters, and diligent cleaning and maintenance, air dryers cannot leave your hands or your washroom as clean as drying with a paper towel like a Scott® Hand Towel†

Did you know that paper towels are the most hygienic option for hand drying?

The science is clear
germ1
95% of adults don’t wash their hands long enough to remove bacteria and germs, that can remain on hands after washing.
germ2
When drying your hands with a jet air dryer, water droplets that could contain bacteria and germs are expelled into the air, travelling as far as 6.5 feet and lingering in the air for up to 15 minutes.
germ3
The inner surfaces of jet air dryers can harbour up to 48 times more bacteria than a toilet seat.
germ4
90% of people show a preference for paper towels over jet air dryers in the washroom.
No wonder paper towels are the recommended hand drying method of the WHO ‘Guidelines on Hand Hygiene in Health Care’ ††
