Quiet Hand Dryers for Schools, Libraries, and Low-Noise Environments
When most people think of hand dryers, they picture the roaring jet engines found in airports and stadiums. Powerful, yes — but in places where peace and focus matter, like schools and libraries, that noise becomes a real problem. Traditional hand dryers, some running at 90+ decibels, can create stress for children, overwhelm students with sensory sensitivities, and turn a quick stop into a hallway distraction.
