State of the art in Hands Drying

New Generation Hand Dryers

Paper is the most common hands drying system worldwide;

80% approx.

This happens even though paper is not really ecological and

despite the waste it generates.

This situation is due to the bad image of traditional hand

dryers and hygienic difficulties to maintain cloth towel dryers.

Nevertheless thanks to VELTIA, this is about to change...

VELTIA

VELTIAInnovation – The Big Difference

The Key:It really works! Operates based on high speed air jets (120 mph), without heating element. there is no risk of burning for the users.

Efficiency:It dries in just 12 to 15 seconds.

Savings:It saves 66- 85% of power consumption compared to traditional hand dryers. Comparing VELTIA with paper drying systems it saves operational and maintenance costs.

Precision:Our hands detector system works on a barriers basis (not bouncing) so it is far more precise than traditional dryers.

Safety and Hygiene:Operation completely automatic, there is no need to touch the dryer. Stops for security after 25 sec of continuous operation.

Moreover, as it doesn't work with hot air, it will not collaborate with bacteria reproduction.

VELTIA Innovation – The Big Difference

Cleanness:Water falls into an internal tank (neither over the user nor on the floor) so it helps to keep cleaner facilities eliminating the risk of slipping. The tank would take up to one week to fill up in typical installation.

When the tank is full, an acoustic and a visual alarm start warning that it must be emptied. However the dryer keeps working normally.

Fortress:VELTIA is made of high impact ABS, with very strong and flexible. A vandal proof model is available for hostiles environment; it is made of Poly-Carbonate with a higher mechanical endurance and flexibility

Conclusion:VELTIA is the first real option to substitute paper as drying system thanks to its effectiveness and power savings. Moreover it is more environmentally friendly as it doesnt generates waste.

VELTIAObjections

This section shows all objections we have found when we introduce VELTIA not only to End Customers but also to new Distributors.

VELTIA is a very new and different product; Therefore we think it is very important for all staff related with commercial distribution to be aware of these objections and the real situation about it.

Size:It is not as big as it looks like, it is the Traffic Light Effect.

VELTIA´s depth and width are pretty much like traditional dryers; just the height is bigger. Nevertheless if the dryer was shorter, what would we install below anyway? Surely nothing as nothing is currently installed on that area of the wall

On the other hand, when a traditional dryer is installed usually nothing is installed under it because the water falling down would wet anything there; so at the end a band of wall from the dryer down to the floor is dedicated to the dryer.

Something similar happens with a paper dispenser when you take into account the paper bin.

So actually our dryer needs less space than traditional drying systems and thanks to the height where it is installed; the top of the wall can be an element of decoration.

VELTIA Objections

People might be concerned about putting their hands in the dryer thinking that someone else already did it so the area could be dirty

Actually when somebody dries his/her hands they are already washed so the risk is lower than when opening the door or the sink faucet so if you think about it the risk is not real.However we are developing an anti-bacterial treatment directly into the plastic of the dryer to kill any biological agent (virus, bacteria, fungus) that touches the surface avoiding a potential transfer from person to person. This will be available for the last quarter of the year.

Seems to be noisy:VELTIA´s noise level is 71 dB (@ 2 mts). Traditional Hand Dryers have a noise level between 65 and 79 dB so our noise level is between the normal range in the market.

If you consider that in every drying cycle VELTIA only works for 1/3 of the time of traditional dryers, the total noise generated by VELTIA is smaller.

If the dryer operates without the water tank the noise is bigger because it is part of the silencer system.

Of course as this product is completely new in the market everybody takes a closer look at it paying a lot more attention to every single detail.

VELTIA Objections

What if somebody spills water inside the Dryer? The water drain is completely isolated and separated from electric and electronic parts so the water never would reach them.

ZeroSmell-Gel is an extra cost for the end user; Can VELTIA be used without it?Yes it can be used without it but it makes no sense for 3 reasons:

ZeroSmell is highly effective and necessary since the washrooms usually don't smell good.

ZeroSmell makes VELTIA even more different from traditional Hand Dryer; this makes sales easier because turns VELTIA into a 2 in 1 product:: Hand Dryer and air freshener.

It is a low cost consumable so creates a second line of business.

Can the air nozzles get blocked?This is very unlikely because the high speed jet streams don't allow the dust to remain in the nozzles.

Price: Comparing VELTIA´s price with traditional dryers prices is completely unfair because we talk about completely different products:

VELTIA dries, most of traditional dryers don'tVELTIA can substitute paper because of its fast operation, traditional ones can'tVELTIA contains the water and keeps the floor cleaner, traditional dryers don'tVELTIA eliminates bad smells, traditional ones don't

However these differences could not be completely clear for a given customer (paradigms are not easy to change); therefore it is important to check to Appendix I where we calculate the benefits for the End Customers when uses VELTIA instead of: Paper or Traditional Hand Dryers.

There are dryers that look almost the same (Mitsubishi, Toto, Dyson):Actually they are very different although they all work with the same principle: High speed airThe first difference is our propelling system more efficient and it allows us to have a big number of nozzles ergonomically distributed to achieve dry without hands movement. Actually our drying system is patented worldwide (Patent Number: WO / 2006 / 042896)

In other High Speed dryer the air is propelled trough a line of holes (Mitsubishi y Toto) or a thin slot (Dyson) on the top of the drying chamber forcing the user to move the hands in and out several times. the consequence is that most of the water drops over the user and on the floor of the washroom. Just like traditional dryers do.

The dryer from Dyson has no water tank so if there is an excess of water (like somebody pouring water inside the dryer) it will fall directly on the floor; Moreover the noise level is a lot higher than ours, we have measured 79 dB.

The dryers from Mitsubishi and Toto have a water tank quite visible and it may be easily removed from the dryer. This is an inconvenient in locations where vandalism is possible since the tank could be stolen or just removed from its place so the water will end up on the floor.

And finally any other dryer has the capability of eliminating bad smells as VELTIA does; this along with the wide availability of colors and chromed finishes makes VELTIA a really exclusive and unique product.

There are dryers that... (Cont...)

On top of the exclusivity and all special features already explained we can also count on an excellent price (compared with other innovative dryers); this proves our VELTIA is the best choice in hands dryer in the world market.

However having other dryer without heating element appearing in the market confirms our opinion that VELTIA represents:
