Save Space and Sight by Combining First Aid and Eyewash Stations!
No matter what kind of business you’re running, it’s always important to have first aid supplies for your workers. The risk of accident runs anywhere people work, and adequate resources for treating minor injuries and providing first-response care is not only good policy — it’s a part of regulatory compliance.
Save space and concentrate emergency resources with First Aid/Eyewash Stations!
The risk and expenditure is also greater for businesses that must also provide eyewash stations for treating eye injuries and other vision-threatening accidents. This can lead to problems with placement and space, as well-equipped first aid kits and eyewash stations can take up a significant amount of space, as well as maintenance and resupply overhead.
If this is a concern for your business, consider an inventive new solution to the space problem — a combination first aid/eyewash station!
In businesses where saving space can be a persistent issue, finding a prominent, easily accessible place to mount a first aid station or eye wash station can be difficult. Industries such as scientific or medical laboratories and machine-intensive manufacturing all face problems optimizing available space while staying compliant with safety regulations.
Using a hybrid First Aid/Eyewash Station can take some of that pressure off by combining a fully-equipped first aid kit with an equally-equipped eye wash station in a single convenient, space-saving, wall-mounted console. Available in capacities serving up to 50 people, First Aid/Eyewash Stations scale effectively and improve not only space optimization, but even response time, as the resources needed to treat most emergencies are located in a single place, preventing confusion and easing access.
