The Dyson Airblade™ is a fast and green hand dryer with a digital motor that produces an air stream flowing at 640km per hour - faster than a Formula One racing car. The Dyson Airblade is 75% more energy efficient than conventional hand dryers because it has no heater - the Airblade pumps air through a 0.3 millimetre gap (no thicker than an eyelash) and acts like an "invisible windscreen wiper" to wipe moisture from hands; killing bacteria and leaving hands completely dry.
Launched at Auckland Airport in 2008, the Airblade is now installed at Britomart, shopping malls, event centres, stadiums, factories and businesses throughout New Zealand.
