Why Integrated Sink Systems are Revolutionizing Hand Hygiene in Public Restrooms

Public restrooms are undergoing a transformation, not just in design, but in how they deliver hygiene, sustainability, and efficiency. Integrated sink systems, like the D|13 Group’s D|VERSE and D|COR series featuring Excel Dryer’s XLERATORsync® Hand Dryer, are redefining what it means to create a modern, touchless, and cost-effective restroom environment.

These innovations allow users to wash, rinse, and dry all in one place, eliminating the need for paper towels and reducing maintenance burdens, while setting a new standard for hand hygiene in public restrooms.

The Evolution of Hand Hygiene in Public Restrooms

Old, antiquated restroom setups include separate sinks, soap dispensers, and conventional hand dryers or paper towel dispensers which often lead to messy, inefficient experiences. Water drips on the floor, overflowing trash bins, and wasted consumables all add to labor and maintenance costs.

Integrated sink systems solve these long-standing issues by combining every stage of the handwashing process into a single, seamless unit. With a sink mounted hand dryer like the XLERATORsync hand dryer, users can dry their hands directly over the sink, keeping floors clean and improving hand hygiene in public restrooms.

The XLERATORsync Hand Dryer’s electrostatic HEPA (eHEPA®) filtration system removes 99.999% of viruses and 99.97% of bacteria from the airstream, providing clean, filtered air with every use. This touchless technology also minimizes cross-contamination, a key benefit in high-traffic public spaces.

A Smarter Solution for Modern Restroom Design

The D|13 Group’s D|VERSE and D|COR Integrated Sink Systems take restroom functionality to the next level.

The D|VERSE model, a 30-inch, made-to-order sink with hand dryer, is ideal for airports, stadiums, universities, and large facilities. This automatic faucet and dryer combo has the sink faucet, soap dispenser, and the XLERATORsync hand dryer all on the sink deck. This system can be completely customized to meet the needs of any architect or designer. This integrated sink features a brushed stainless steel vanity & plumbing enclosure and a sound suppression air delivery system for quiet, hygienic operation.

For smaller spaces, the D|COR sink with hand dryer system delivers the same touchless faucet and sink mounted hand dryer combination benefits in a compact 25-inch form factor except that it does not include the soap dispenser as a part of the unit. Its solid surface polymer basin and ADA-compliant design make it a perfect choice for restaurants, convenience stores, and retail environments seeking the best hand hygiene in public restrooms.

Each model integrates the automatic faucet and dryer combo into a single deck, creating a minimalist, modern look that architects and designers love. The result provides the sustainability benefits of integrated sink systems and a user experience that’s cleaner, quieter, and more refined.
