Hand Dryer Case Study - Burj Khalifa, Dubai

Going up in the world! Fitted in the world's tallest building - Burj Khalifa, Dubai

The Project

The Burj Khalifa, standing at 828 meters, is not only the tallest building in the world, but also a symbol of architectural innovation and luxury. With millions of visitors annually, the building’s facilities must uphold the highest standards of hygiene, efficiency, and sustainability.

The Solution

To align with these standards, the Biodrier Eco Hand Dryer was selected for their washrooms. Key factors influencing this decision included:

Energy Efficiency: The Biodrier Eco uses 90% less energy than conventional hand dryers, which aligns with the Burj Khalifa’s energy-saving goals.

Hygiene: The dryer includes HEPA filtration, built in, to remove bacteria and viruses from the air, ensuring a hygienic hand drying process.

Speed and Noise Reduction: The dryer offers a drying experience under 10 seconds, with minimal noise, enhancing user experience.

Durability: Made with high-quality materials, the dryer is designed to withstand high traffic, which is essential for a building with as many visitors as the Burj Khalifa.

The Results

The installation of the Biodrier Eco Hand Dryer results in several positive outcomes:

Energy Savings: reduction in electricity consumption, due to the Biodrier Eco, enables a more energy efficient washroom.

Operational Cost Reduction: the cost of paper towels and waste disposal decreases dramatically, leading to lower operational costs.

Environmental Impact: the reduction in paper towel usage leads to less waste, supporting the global commitment towards environmental sustainability.
