Thousands of industrial accidents happen every year in spite of precautionary safety measures, accidents that are caused by human exposure to heat (fire, boiling water and oil, steam, etc.), to corrosive agents (fluid acids and caustics) and/or to influence by dust and corrosive aerosols (metal, dirt, fluids).

These accidents cause the injured person acute pain, disablement and may even lead to loss of life. However, experience shows that the consequences and human suffering following such accidents can be considerably limited if water is applied directly to the affected areas instantly after the exposure.

It is a fact of life that the risk lurks in many places: in the laboratory, in the kitchen, in the warehouse, in the chemical plant, in the workshop or generally speaking in any place where heat, corrosion or dust can cause serious human injury.

For these reasons we strongly recommend the installation of adequate emergency shower systems as a means of limiting these risks.
