Dyson Hand Dryer
Paper towels or hand dryer?
Which one has a smaller carbon footprint?
Which one is more eco-friendly and environmentally sound?
Reaching an answer is quite complicated because many aspects must be considered throughout the products' life cycle.
But, in short, the conclusion of several research studies on the subject,
such as the one conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or the one conducted by the sustainability consulting company True Nord Collective, or the one conducted by the University of Guelph in Canada,
is the following: If the hand dryer is a newer version, does not heat the air, and has low electricity consumption, then it is preferable, even to recycled paper.
In addition to these studies, Dyson, the hand dryer manufacturer, has obtained Carbon Trust certification, which shows that its Airblade dryers have a smaller carbon footprint than both paper towels and hot air dryers.
Therefore, the sole importer of Dyson dryers in Romania and the Republic of Moldova, Abro Tehnic, is also a provider of sustainable solutions on the eEco platform.
Because it helps large and small companies:
- reduce energy consumption
- reduce their carbon footprint
- make green purchases
