SUSTAINABILITY<br />
<strong>Excel</strong> Hand Dryers offer up to a 75% reduction in carbon footprint—even compared<br />
with 100% recycled paper towels. They are BuildingGreen Approved and help<br />
facilities qualify for the most LEED ® credits. In 2017, <strong>Excel</strong> Dryer became the first<br />
hand dryer manufacturer to publish third-party verified Environmental Product<br />
Declarations (EPDs) by UL Environment.<br />

LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT<br />
A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) investigates a product’s total<br />
environmental impact from time of manufacture (beginning<br />
of life) to time of disposal (end of life). <strong>Excel</strong> Dryer had an<br />
LCA Study conducted by Quantis, an international life cycle<br />
assessment research firm, which was peer reviewed to ISO<br />
14040 Standards. The study determined that when compared<br />
to traditional electric hand dryers and paper towels (virgin<br />
and 100% recycled content), XLERATOR reduces the Climate<br />
Changing Score (Carbon Footprint) of hand drying by up to 75%.<br />
