World Dryer today announced the launch of its SANITIZE + DRY™ Hand Dryer, engineered to elevate hygiene through advanced cold plasma technology. This system generates reactive molecules that kills bacteria and viruses directly in the air stream, achieving sanitization without chemicals, sprays, filters or paper towels. “We wanted to develop a product that elevates hygiene and user trust in shared spaces, and we’re confident that the World Dryer SANITIZE + DRY hand dryer does just that,” said Scott Jones, Director of Product Management – World Dryer at Zurn Elkay.
Jones noted that the COVID-19 pandemic spurred World Dryer’s investment in the development of better, more innovative hygienic technologies. “Cold plasma is already trusted in food safety and healthcare industries, so we were driven to apply it to our next generation hand dryers,” Jones added. “Our SANITIZE + DRY hand dryers are third-party tested and
certified to kill 99.99%1 of common bacteria and viruses, including Influenza A (H1N1), SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), Human rhinovirus (common cold), Escherichia coli (E. coli), Staphylococcus aureus, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Norovirus and Enterococcus faecium.”
The SANITIZE + DRY™ dryer’s sleek, ADA-compliant profile integrates effortlessly into diverse restroom design styles without the need for expensive recess kits. It’s available in three unique two-tone finishes – brushed stainless steel, white aluminum or black aluminum.
The adjustable three-speed motor allows operators to fine-tune airflow and sound levels, optimizing both user comfort and energy performance. Designed for high-speed drying with minimal power draw, the unit delivers reliable efficiency in a sleek, impact-resistant form. Its streamlined design simplifies installation and contributes to long-term operational savings for a wide range of facility environments.
“With cold plasma technology, the World Dryer SANITIZE + DRY dryer raises the bar for hand dryers and bathroom hygiene expectations as a whole, by combining sanitization, performance and value, all at a price comparable to traditional hand dryers,” Jones said.
