emergency showers

Chemical spill stations

Emergency showers are safety fixtures installed in laboratories, industrial facilities, and other workplaces where hazardous materials are handled.

They deliver a large volume of water to quickly drench a person who has been exposed to dangerous chemicals, fire, or other contaminants.

Typically activated by pulling a lever or chain, they provide immediate full-body decontamination.

Regulations often require them to be positioned within ten seconds' walking distance of potential hazards and paired with eyewash stations.
