ION PURE Technology

ION PURE is a soluble glass solution containing antimicrobial metal ions that’s impregnated into the Luna Mini shell during the manufacturing process – creating a germ and bacteria resistant finish.

How does it work?

Silver and Copper metal ions have antimicrobial properties that kill bacteria. Glass retains metal as ions and releases them gradually in the presence of water or moisture. So, the materials are mixed together to create a solution that can be added to a product at the manufacturing stages – giving it an inbuilt layer of protection against bacteria.

Hand Dryers: Frequently Asked Questions


  • How hygienic are hand dryers?

    Hand dryers are very hygienic because they reduce the need to touch surfaces and therefore they lower the risk of spreading disease. Hand dryers that contain a HEPA filter help to remove bacteria from the air that they use to dry your hands. Both of the Dyson hand dryers, as well as our Luna Dry unit has built-in HEPA filters. Making sure hands are not wet prevents potential germs from escaping from the washroom. We recommend using hand sanitiser after drying hands to achieve extra protection.
