The science is clear. Paper Towels are more sanitary.
With hygiene being top of everyone’s mind, we thought you might be interested to learn that the Mayo Clinic recommend using paper towels in locations where “hygiene is paramount” including healthcare facilities. Research shows that people had 42% more bacteria on their hands after using jet air dryers, which could increase the risk of cross-contamination.
