In-house R&D capabilities
At Airdri, we take pride not only in the socially inclusive approach our Engineers employ during the design phase of our hand dryer product development but also in our dedication to upholding the internationally recognized Great British design values of quality, simplicity, and functionality.
All our hand dryers are meticulously designed in our Oxford, UK headquarters, where our Engineers adhere to established Great British design principles. While maintaining these principles, we also focus on innovation, creating hand dryers that are more environmentally friendly, distinctive, and reliable.
When using our hand dryers, most people may not consider what happens beneath the hoods. Yet, every component, from motor brushes to filters, is intricately designed to ensure the efficiency and user comfort for which we are renowned.
Facilities
Our team of electrical and mechanical engineers has access to a fully equipped design and development lab, as well as a custom-built, soundproof dryer testing facility that can accommodate up to ten products simultaneously.
It was in this facility that the team conceived the PowerDRI, our first blade hand dryer. Key components were meticulously crafted through trial and error using 3D printed parts to ensure optimal performance and reliability. As the project progressed from concept to production, our teams in the UK and China collaborated to source and develop numerous components, ensuring a smooth transition into manufacturing.
Our lab facility also successfully tested the Quantum hand dryer, achieving a lifecycle of over 10,000 hours, compared to the approximately 1,000 hours typical of most other popular jet dryer units.
We were the first hand dryer manufacturer in the world to be awarded the Quiet Mark, a seal of approval from the UK Noise Abatement Society. This accolade has allowed us to lead the way in shaping industry standards for sound level reduction.
Our CompactDRI model boasts an incredibly low sound output, making it 18% quieter than the industry standard. Operating at just 70 dBA, it is considered one of the quietest hand dryers on the market, allowing normal-level human speech to continue during use.
Bespoke projects
At Airdri, we welcome customers seeking to leverage our design and engineering proficiency to create tailored hand dryers for their product line-up.
Additionally, within our hand dryer range, we offer three models featuring customizable covers, providing an ideal canvas for personalization with images, text, or brand logos.
