Paper Tower

Many years ago, Paper Towels replaced reusable hand towels to better prevent infectious transmission and cross contamination. Paper towels also offer advantages over air dryers. While these devices sometimes increase the germ count on the hands, paper towels have been proven to minimise the germ count from those that are left on the hands after washing. Furthermore, hot air dryers with a high output can even contribute to the contamination of the environmental air, as the germs simply blown away from the hands. Therefore, many surgeries and hospitals give preference to paper towels, as opposed to blow dryers.
