Emergency and Safety Showers Industrial Drench Shower Station

Emergency & Safety Drench Showers are needed in workplaces where people have potential exposure to hazardous materials. Generally hazardous materials are those that can cause damage to the skin or eyes or can be readily absorbed through the skin. These materials can be liquids, solids, gases, and vapors and mists. The most common hazardous materials are usually in the form of liquids and they can be common chemicals, very acidic liquids, or highly alkaline liquids. Battery acid contains sulfuric acid and is an example of a very acidic liquid. Ammonia is an example of a highly alkaline liquid. Chlorine, hydrogen peroxide (bleach), and cyanoacrylate adhesives (Super Glue) are examples of common chemicals that are hazardous.
