WHY CHOOSE HAND DRYERS?
Hand Dryers
The benefits of using hand dryers over paper towels
ENVIRONMENTAL
Hand dryers save trees from being cut
down and made into paper towels.
Paper towels can be made from recycled
paper, but they cannot be recycled. They
create millions of cubic feet of waste in
landfills.
The production of paper towels is twice as
energy-intensive as the use of hand dryers
and creates more greenhouse gases.
It takes more energy to produce 2 paper
towels than it does to run a typical high
speed hand dryer.
To make one ton of recycled paper, it takes
7,000 gallons of water, 158 million BTUs of
energy; and 60 pounds of pollutants go into
the atmosphere.
Over its lifetime, just one hand dryer will
produce 3.0 tons less CO2 than the
production of the towels it replaces. (4.6
tons vs 1.6 tons of CO2)
A school using 30 hand dryers saves one
ton, or 17 trees worth of paper towels per
year.
The United States Postal Service identified
hand dryers as the single most cost and
waste reduction alternative in their Pollution
Prevention Study.
FINANCIAL
Hand dryers operate on pennies a day.
Installing hand dryers in public washrooms
reduces hand drying expense by an
average of 90-95% when compared to
paper towels.
The average payback for hand dryers is
12-18 months.
Paper costs continue to rise.
MAINTENANCE
The use of paper towels involves constant
ordering, stocking, cleaning, and disposal.
Hand dryers eliminate paper towel waste
and disposal issues, including plumbing
problems due to clogged paper towels.
SAFETY AND VANDALISM
Paper towels clog toilets, litter floors and
can be fire hazards.

Planning Guide
PLANNING GUIDE
The environmentally responsible method to dry your hands
QUANTITY ESTIMATE
Average traffic: 1 dryer per 2 washbasins
Heavy traffic: 1 dryer per washbasin
54” Bradley sink: 4 dryers per sink
DRYER PLACEMENT
Hand dryers should be placed at least 2 feet apart, near but not over the washbasin. In congested areas
dryers should be placed to create a traffic flow from wash basin to dryer to exit. Automatic dryers should be
placed more than 18” above or away from projections, which may interfere with the operation of the
automatic sensor.
