Emergency Eye Wash Stations


I have a metal shop and we are constantly using grinders that throw debris and sparks all over the shop. My employees are really good about wearing safety glasses or safety goggles, but there is always the chance a customer or someone else wanders into the shop area. What are some safety precautions I can take?

Thats a great question and I know how hard it is to control access to your shop area and keep everybody safe as well. One thing you should definitely consider is install eye wash stations. There are several different types you can purchase. I would recommend a Pure Flow 1000 eye wash station for your smaller shop. These are made from durable plastic and are easily mounted. These eye wash stations have a two maintenance cycle, so you only have to add solution and clean it on a two year basis. You should install these eye wash stations every 25 feet to insure adequate coverage for your shop and meet OSHA requirements as well.
