We are extremely delighted to launch our new Ecofast hand dryer. Launched with a list price of INR 3800 ++ this is the most economically priced hand dryer in our product range. This hand dryer is meant for low and medium traffic applications. Ideally suited for offices, shops, hotel common areas, cafes etc.At Askon, low cost does not translate to low quality. The quality of plastics we use are still high quality heat and fire retardant plastics. The electronic circuit and sensors are reliable and same as we use in some of the more expensive products. We still use transformer as it isolates the product from any fluctuations in supply mains and also increases product life. The motor used is 6500 RPM DC motor which is much better in quality than found in some of the cheaper imported hand dryers.We are sure our customers will love this hand dryer as much as they love using some of our other products.

We are extremely happy and satisfied that we are getting ready to ship our new SlimJet series hand dryers to our customers this week.After 3 yrs of design, prototyping and testing with disruptions due to covid, we are happy that we will be shipping this product soon and we are confident our customers will love it.READY.

The hand dryer is also silent. The high pitch noise frequencies have been damped and vibration noise is minimised to make the hand dryer pleasant to use and reduce the noise disturbances to surrounding spaces in a facility.The SlimJet Pro hand dryer will come with 2 years warranty against manufacturing defects.The SlimJet hand dryer variant is for medium to low traffic applications. It uses a less heavy duty motor to provide same fast hand drying at a lower price point. The SlimJet hand dryer comes with 1 year warranty against manufacturing defects.Both hand dryer variants come with stainless steel and white ABS covers.Also SlimJet series hand dryers consume only 650W power. You can save more than 95% operational costs compared to the paper towels and 75% operational costs compared to other hand dryers.

Askon has been manufacturing some of the most energy efficient hand dryers in the world.Askon hand dryers has helped saved tons and tons of tissues and paper towels going to landfills every year. Our new generation high speed hand dryers have high user satisfaction as they dry hands very quickly and at the same time consuming 75% energy as compared to paper towels.Taking our commitment to environment one step further, we have now completely eliminated thermocol packaging from our Made-in-India range of hand dryers.Every years thousands of piece of thermocol used to go waste from our hand dryers packaging. Once the hand dryers are unpacked at our client site, the only place these thermocol pieces could go was into landfills. This pushed us to find a solution to make our packaging more environmentally friendly. How can an environmentally friendly product have such an environmentally harmful packaging!!We finally engineered a completely bio-degradable packaging solution made out of cardboard and paper for packaging our hand dryers. All our Made-in-India hand dryers are shipping with this biodegradable packaging and we are very happy that thousands and thousands of pieces of thermocol wont end up polluting our land, water or air.

We are proud to be become the 1st company in India to have ISI certification for hand dryers. We were also recently awarded by BIS on the world standards day for building a quality culture and ecosystem in the country as their valued partner.Even though this certification is not mandatory we voluntarily decided to go for it. We wanted to achieve one thing:Certification from an independent and reputed certification body that our products live up to the highest quality standards.Everyone says their product is of good quality and Made-in-India. But what is the proof??The project initially started in 2014. We got some of our products tested in ERTL (West) as per applicable standard and our products did not comply with all required clauses. We came to know about the short comings in making a world class product.On the way to this certification we faced many challenges. To solve them, we required creativity because ready made solutions don?t exist when something is being done for the 1st time. From non-availability of raw materials, non-availability of testing equipment and understanding and ensuring compliance with all of its clauses, it required extensive time and resources. This process was not possible to delegate or outsource because such expertise did not exist.But being an engineer at heart, I love technical challenges, R&D process and resolving issues in products to make them better. That is probably the reason I kept going even when it made no economic sense. I must have read the relevant BIS standard for hand dryers at least 50 times. We worked with testing equipment manufacturers to customize equipment for our needs. We worked with raw material suppliers to custom make or import materials which were not available in India. Many raw material suppliers in India had not heard about the parameters and tests were asking of them.And then Covid hit. For 2 years, the ISI certification project was completely stalled. Hand dryers are used in commercial spaces and with all of them being closed or in WFH mode, demand for hand dryers crashed. Times like those you wonder if all the time and resources spent on such a project could have been spent somewhere else specially when it is not mandatory. For a small company there are no time or resources to waste.However, as all tides eventually turn. Commercial spaces opened up, WFH relaxed and there was need of hand dryers in their washrooms. As we had done all our R&D for the certification process and setting up the test lab, we were able to apply for it in May 2024 and we received the certification in September 2024 for four hand dryers.It has been a long journey and we learned immensely. Since our whole ecosystem and supply chain is set we are ready to scale up our product range with many new products lined up to be launched in 2025.We will continue on the Make-in-India path and not because it is a good marketing slogan but it is the only thing we know and love doing.

We are proud to receive the prestigious India Design Mark (I mark) from the India Design Council and Good Design Awards
