Hand dryers

Hand and hair dryers are now commonly used in many public places, workplaces, and shopping malls. They have become an integral part of the landscape of most public toilets, competing with paper towel dispensers for the title of the "best hand wiping method." Many must know that the first dryers were created in the second decade of the 20th century. As a result, hand and hair dryers have been in bathrooms for over 100 years. The first dryers were not widely known, expensive to produce and operate, and cumbersome. However, they have undergone significant changes over time. Currently, dryers are devices that have been refined in terms of construction. They ensure, among other things, quick drying time and air filtration thanks to the use of HEPA filters, reasonable power consumption, and are practically maintenance-free. For example, using a highly efficient brushless motor (also known as BLDC motor) in the MERIDA ECO JET dryer makes it reliable and allows for long, trouble-free operation. In addition, many models are very appealing and often a decorative element in the bathroom. Take the Merida TRI-BLADE dryer as an example, with its light, eye-catching, modern shape and a choice of 14 colour versions. This makes it the perfect device for contemporary bathrooms with high traffic. Users appreciate the dryers' convenience, simplicity of use, quick operation, and low operating costs. Customers also value the ease of use and serviceability of Merida equipment. We offer hand dryers proven on the market and relatively cheaper for everyday use. You've come to the right place if you want a dryer distinguished by reasonable price, high quality, exciting design, operational reliability, warranty, and post-warranty care.

Our dryers come in traditional aesthetics and colours such as steel matt, polished, and white. For customers seeking unique designs, we also offer high-end hairdryers suitable for any room. Many of our dryers come with adjustable heating and drying time, resulting in energy efficiency. Our Merida brand is known for offering high-quality automatic hand dryers suitable for high-traffic areas like large companies and shopping centres and places with lower footfall, such as offices. We provide warranty and post-warranty service for all our dryers and offer the option to extend the warranty coverage. With a vast network of branches, our service technicians can promptly reach customers in case of any issues. In some devices, the warranty period is 12 months, and for ECO JET pocket dryers - up to 36 months. Do not buy dryers of unknown origin; choose proven Merida hand dryers. Research proves that dryers leave almost four times smaller carbon footprint than traditional paper towels. The secret to the hand dryers' success also lies in the methods of air filtering. The dryers equipped with a particular filter use modern air filtering technology; the whole is closed in an antibacterial ABS plastic housing, covered with an internal protective coating and fitted with a HEPA filter. The air in the toilet is passed through a filter that traps 99.9% of the bacteria, ensuring your hands are dried using clean air. Energy-saving, quick-drying, elimination of bacteria in the toilet! These are the main advantages of pocket dryers equipped with a HEPA filter. Pocket hand dryer - it simply pays off.

The hair dryers are used in countless hotels. Our dryers are in virtually all swimming pools, aqua parks and SPA hotels. Among the hair dryers, the iconic SLON electric hair dryer, called by our customers the elephant, deserves attention. The exciting design, ease of use, and reasonable price make this dryer find many buyers and enjoy continued popularity for many years. We recommend the MERIDA NEPTUNE pool dryer for demanding customers who expect high durability from the hair dryer. It is a pool dryer, not only by name, but can also be installed in places exposed to unfavourable conditions (chlorine). Installation on a particular crane allows the user of this dryer to adjust the height independently.

Which hand dryer is the best one for you?

When deciding on a hand dryer to purchase, several important factors must be considered. Before making a choice, it's essential to answer a few key questions. Consider the features most important to you, such as short drying time versus lower noise level. Determine your budget and where the dryer will be used. Additionally, consider the level of usage the dryer will receive. Investing in a dryer with the highest specifications may not be necessary for small bathrooms with occasional use. Ensure you have access to an electricity connection, and consider the importance of the dryer's place of production. Our range includes dryers from Polish, European, and Asian manufacturers, with various models, designs, and finishes, including metal, ABS, and melamine housings. These questions are crucial when selecting a hand dryer, as we want to ensure that you find the best option that meets the needs and requirements of your public restroom or facility. To assist with these considerations, here are some points to bear in mind:

Traffic in the bathroom and the choice of hand dryers

The durability of a hand dryer is crucial in heavily frequented restrooms. Due to frequent use, hand dryers in high-traffic restrooms are subject to quicker wear and tear. This highlights the importance of using high-quality devices. For such restrooms, we strongly recommend dryers with non-contact sensors. For heavily frequented restrooms, we recommend the following products: Merida Optima hand dryer, Merida ECO JET pocket dryer, or Merida Machflow compact dryer. These are among the most durable dryers that perform well in such conditions. Merida dryers can be found in various locations, including gas stations, shopping malls, stadiums, and fast-food restaurants. These models can withstand repeated use by a significant number of people in restrooms that are open 24 hours a day. Furthermore, these models require virtually zero maintenance. The exception is the ECO JET dryer, which has a water tank at the bottom. This design feature helps prevent water puddles beneath the dryer, which is often observed with models without a tank. In high-traffic restrooms, an essential factor is the drying time, and for the best dryers in our range, the adequate drying time is approximately 8 seconds.

Hand dryers, the most advanced solutions

Are you a fan of technical innovations and advanced solutions? Are you looking for the best product available? Merida's Tri-Blade and ECO JET dryers are comparable to Dyson's Airblade dryers, some of the most popular hand dryers in the UK, USA, and China. However, Merida's dryers have one significant advantage over Dyson products - they are much cheaper. Visit our website to learn more. The Merida ECO JET hand dryer comes with a brushless motor that provides 1400W of power, enabling the blown air to reach a speed of 400 km/h. It can dry hands in just 8 seconds due to the simultaneous blowing of water from both sides, making it one of the fastest hand-drying devices on the market. This model is used in car dealerships, casinos, airports, offices, universities, hotels, restaurants, bakeries, confectioneries, and government institutions. Like other hand dryers, the ECO JET and TRI-BLADE save significant amounts of money compared to paper towels and reduce running costs. The ECO JET dryer also features an innovative double air filtration system: a preliminary lower filter/odour absorber and a final upper HEPA filter. Additionally, the dryer offers the option of using a citrus fragrance to maintain a pleasant aroma in the room each time the dryer is used.

Noise related to the use of the dryer

Are you looking for a hand dryer that is both effective and quiet? The Merida ONE hand dryer is a great option. ECO (economic) and TURBO (accelerated) come with two drying modes. At its highest speed, it dries hands in 6 seconds and operates at a volume of around 70dB. On the lowest settings, it can operate at about 66 dB. The dryer has two air discharge discs, Blade and Multijet, which provide an air knife and distribute the air through patented holes for quiet and efficient drying. This makes it suitable for premises where low noise levels are essential or where quick drying is needed.

A hair dryer as an exciting piece of equipment

Are you interested in ensuring that your customers are impressed by the cleanliness of your restrooms? You may own a restaurant and want to promote the exceptional hygiene provided by hand dryers. Some hand dryers are incredibly effective at subtly advertising the cleanliness of your facilities. They can also be an attractive display for your business, as specific models boast stunning designs. The Merida ONE hand dryer is our recommended choice, available in 16 colours. The Merida TRI-BLADE pocket dryer, which we have previously discussed, is also available in numerous colours. This model stands out because it has two HEPA filters and can accommodate a fragrance cartridge. This feature is almost expected in this type of Merida dryer.

High quality is not necessarily a high price

Spending more money sometimes means getting the best hand dryer. Some brands offer higher prices, but hand dryer housings are available in various models and materials. For instance, the TURBO JET hand dryer has different housing options: white, matte, and polished metal. Despite the variations in appearance, they all function the same way. There's no difference in dryer speed, motor life, or warranty length. The cost of the housing depends on the material used; polished stainless-steel housings are typically the most expensive. The most ordered housings are made of metal, ABS, or melamine. It's important to note that "plastic" doesn't necessarily mean lower quality. To demonstrate the durability of melamine casings, consider the Merida PRIMA hand dryer, which has a heat-resistant casing that can even withstand a burning cigarette.

Connection, power consumption of hand dryers

Some of Merida's hand dryers, such as the ECOFLOW PLUS dryer, are energy-saving. This eco-mode hand dryer operates at 65 volts using 240 volts, which reduces installation costs and potential errors. Most hand dryers in the range come with a connection cable, making them ready for installation. If you need clarification on the correct voltage, it's best to consult an electrician or refer to the building plans. We hope this information helps you make the best purchase decision. Buying hand dryers may seem simple, but once you start shopping, you'll realise the wide range of options available.
