Don’t Dry Your Hands on Your Pants, Hand Dryers Have Come a Long Way

The standard paper towel dispenser is a C-fold dispenser. This means these units are easy to install and clean, making them a best seller in the restroom industry. Yet, the problem with paper products is the cost on the environment and maintenance. Altogether, the price is far too high. Therefore, some of the advantages to switching your customers to hand dryers are as follows:

1. Manufacturing:
   People don’t realize that paper towels cost a lot of money. Between manufacturing, delivery, and supply, the costs skyrocket. Then you have companies taking trees down, working mills to prep wood, and factories producing the paper towels. All-in-all, this is just a quick summary, but that is a lot of electricity, employees, and environmental waste. Waste that comes just from the manufacturing process. This is why we prefer hand dryers like the XLERATOR. These units are 100% Made in the USA and work to have the smallest carbon footprint possible. Excel Dryer thrives to produce products while being eco-friendly and customer focused. 
2. Installation:
   Yes, it is true that almost anyone with a screwdriver can install a paper towel dispenser. That is a highlight of the product. However, hand dryers involve hiring an electrician for a one-time installation. This electrician is paid fairly for his work and is available for future projects. Then, the customer happily saves money. Lots of money versus the maintenance of these dispensers. 
   Meaning the customer and the electrician win!
3. Maintenance:
   During the pandemic, patrons now use triple the amount of paper towels! Just from using the restroom compared to two years priors. They will grab a paper towel to enter a restroom stall, use the facility, and then wash their hands. After rinsing, they dry their hands with paper towels, generally more than one. They leave the restroom using a paper towel to open the door. That is a lot of waste. After this, maintenance crews now have to supply the actual paper towels by restocking the dispenser. They are also responsible for cleaning up the overflowing waste receptacles. That is a lot of waste. A waste of your client’s money. 
4. Hand Dryers Win Every Time:
   The XLERATOR hand dryer is Made in the USA! Therefore by buying them, you support our country. You help preserve our environment with an eco-friendly product. XLERATORs have an eco-friendly manufacturing process and continue to be a green product once installed. These hand dryers require virtually no maintenance.
