It feels great to get this kind of special recognition for that.”
Buildings magazine created the Product Innovation Awards to celebrate innovative building materials and solutions helping architects, building owners and product specification influencers create aesthetically pleasing, high functioning commercial projects. A panel of esteemed and experienced industry insiders from the building and architectural community look for manufacturers with concepts, products and systems that move the needle on innovation.

This more durable electrostatically charged HEPA filter captures 99.999% of viruses and 99.97% of bacteria from the airstream to ensure that users have clean, safe air to dry their hands with. This advanced technology significantly reduces the risk of pathogen transmission and enhances overall restroom hygiene.
