For more than 50 years, World Dryer has been the leading manufacturer of warm air automatic hand dryers. Our hand dryers are reliable, durable and environmentally friendly. They can be seen around the world in use at numerous locations such as: restaurants, hospitals, factories and schools. Every automatic dryer we build is designed to sit at the peak of efficiency and sanitation, making each unit an excellent choice for commercial use in almost any environment.

When we set out to design an automatic dryer, we always think of the customer first. What would be most convenient? How can we ensure that the automatic dryers look most attractive? With these thoughts in mind, we build the most powerful machine we can, while keeping the environmental impact as low as possible. We also maintain a stock of different automatic dryer models, allowing our customers to choose which automatic hand dryer would best fit their business' individual needs.

WORLD DRYER AUTOMATIC HAND DRYERS & THE ENVIRONMENT: You may be familiar with our tagline: "Push button, Save trees" - and its true! World Dryer automatic hand dryers ARE environmentally friendly! When you choose an automatic hand dryer instead of a paper towel dispenser, you will save millions of trees with one small gesture. World Dryer automatic hand dryers are master works of efficiency, developed by a company that was manufacturing environmentally friendly products long before going green became a trend. Beyond saving trees, you will actually use less energy to dry your hands with an automatic hand dryer than is necessary to produce the equivalent amount of paper towels.
