How do chemical hazards enter the body in a chemical spill? Learn how to better protect your team from chemical exposure: https://hubs.la/Q0447V3M0

In many workplaces, employees work with corrosive or toxic substances that can harm the skin and eyes within seconds of contact. Safety showers and eyewash stations provide rapid decontamination, helping to flush chemicals away before they can pe*****te tissue or enter the bloodstream.

To be effective, this equipment must meet ANSI/ISEA Z358.1, be within 10 seconds of the hazard, and deliver continuous tepid water flow for at least 15 minutes. Combined with PPE, good ventilation, spill control and regular testing and training, they form a vital line of defence when every second counts.

FAQ: How long does water preservative last in self-contained safety showers and eye/face washes?

Water additive preserves the quality of water in self-contained eye/face washes and safety showers for up to 120 days.

Once 120 days have elapsed the tank should be completely drained, disinfected, and re-filled, even if the unit was not activated in that timeframe.
