Equipment such as showers and eyewash stations provide immediate decontamination from harmful chemicals and hazardous substances that come in contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Eyewash stations range in design from portable eyewash stations and first aid kits equipped with washing solutions to stationary sinks with unique faucets for flushing eyes. Emergency showers enable workers to immediately rinse chemicals from their skin and clothing as well as douse clothing in the event of a fire emergency.
