AirDri Hand Dryers

About AirDri

There’s no substitute for experience, and few hand dryer manufacturers have as much as AirDri. Founded in 1974, they have almost half a century behind them on their path to becoming one of the market leaders in the hand dryer industry.

Started in Oxfordshire – where they’re still based to this day – by engineers Peter Philipps and Peter Allen, AirDri have always focused on making efficient, affordable, and stylish hand dryers. You’ll find these principles in all of the models you’ll see above, while still enjoying enough variety to find the perfect fit for your business. Below, we’ll outline some of the key features you can expect to find in AirDri’s range of hand dryers.

Affordability

One of AirDri’s key founding principles is to keep their hand dryers as affordable as possible. All of the models you’ll find above offer incredible value for money, and there’s something here for every budget. Low-cost models such as the Quote are ideal for larger washrooms, where you may want to install multiple matching hand dryers to ensure a professional appearance. Of course, we’re always happy to offer quotes for bulk purchases on any hand dryer model, so please just get in touch if you’re interested.

Quiet Mark-Approved Hand Dryers

Quiet hand dryers are incredibly desirable for any business. No hand dryer is completely silent, of course, and generally speaking, noise level needs to be balanced against other concerns like power and affordability. Finding the best balance can be tricky. However, AirDri hand dryers are known for using advanced noise reduction technology to keep sound levels low while still offering relatively impressive drying speeds and prices. This is why many models – such as the sleek Quest hand dryer – have been awarded the Quiet Mark.

The Quiet Mark is a prestigious, internationally-recognised award given only to appliances that keep quiet without compromising on performance. If you need a hand dryer for a noise-sensitive area – perhaps you run a small business, a library, or a care home where loud noises could be distressing – you should look for the Quiet Mark.

Fast Hand Drying Time

If you’ve got a very busy washroom, a slow hand dryer can be a nightmare. In shopping centres, service stations, and other busy areas, queues for hand dryers can quickly get out of control, leading to congestion, unhappy customers, and safety and hygiene risks as people with wet hands drip all over your floor. You can avoid these problems by picking up a model with a rapid drying time of 10-15 seconds, such as the Quest.

Eco-Friendly

While they do need electricity to power their motors and heating elements, most modern hand dryers are incredibly eco-friendly as they only need to draw power for a few seconds at a time. AirDri is known for pushing eco-friendly tech further than ever before, with highly efficient internal designs to ensure every watt is put to good use. This is proved by the incredible Quantum hand dryer, which boasts an ultra-efficient 200W motor. It only uses a fraction of the energy of a regular hand dryer, which means low running costs and low environmental impact. If you pride yourself on ensuring your business goes the extra mile to help the planet, this is the model for you.

Hygiene

Hygiene has never been more important than it is now. An automatic hand dryer will help boost hygiene in your washroom by reducing cross-contamination. If a user doesn’t wash their hands properly and goes on to handle an appliance, then any bacteria or virus cells on their hands will be transferred onto anything they touch. This can lead to increased maintenance times and costs, as cleaning staff will need to take extra care to thoroughly clean your hand dryer. Automatic touchless hand dryers avoid this problem entirely. They’re much less prone to picking up dirt and bacteria, and well as smears, fingerprints, and damage, simply because users never have to touch them. All of the AirDri models above are automatic, so you can be sure they’ll help you keep your washroom hygienic.

Durability

Quality hand dryers need to be durable both inside and out. You can rely on all AirDri units to be made with superior build quality and long-lasting parts. This is why they all come with extended warranties as standard.

However, if you want to install a hand dryer in a public washroom, a school, or any area where it might be at risk of damage, you’ll want something a little tougher. Many of the models above have an option for stainless steel plating, so they can withstand dents and scratches more easily.

Style and Finish

All the models above are available in a range of finishes and styles. If you want to provide a clean, modern, and professional-looking washroom to your staff or customers, choosing a hand dryer that fits into your décor is important. AirDri’s range includes functional models like the Quartz, slimline models like the Quad, and stylish units like the Quazar. Most offer a choice of finishes, from clean white to stylish stainless steel. Some even offer a modern, sleek black finish. Click on the models or use the filters on the left to choose whichever finish works best for you.

Of course, the design of your hand dryer isn’t all about aesthetic. You’ll also need to consider how it’ll physically fit into the space in your washroom. You’ll need to consider both the available wall space and how much the unit will jut out into the room. If you only have a confined washroom, a bulky hand dryer may simply take up too much space to be practical. A slimline Quad or Quantum model may be best.
