Do you handle hazardous or corrosive chemicals daily in a laboratory or factory setting? If yes, then you already know the importance of maintaining a safe environment for workers. So, to ensure safety in these high-risk settings, Raptor Supplies recommends using Justrite emergency showers.
Why Use Emergency Showers?
- Rapid Decontamination: Chemical substances can cause harm to the human body upon contact, inhalation, or absorption through the skin. Using an emergency shower, individuals can quickly rinse off the hazardous substances before they have a chance to penetrate further into the skin or be ingested.
- Preventing Cross-Contamination: Chemical spills or exposures can be highly contagious or pose risks to others in the vicinity. By using an emergency shower, individuals can prevent the spread of contaminants and minimise the chances of secondary exposure to coworkers or emergency responders.
- Regulatory Compliance: Many industries, like pharmaceutical, food & chemical processing and waste treatment & recycling mandate the presence of emergency shower facilities. Failure to comply with such regulations can result in penalties, fines, or legal consequences for the organization.
But, Why Justrite Emergency Showers?
The brand offers a wide variety of emergency showers, including temperature-controlled safety showers, that facilitates 15 minutes of continuous warm water supply to prevent the person from going into shock caused by frigid conditions.

Justrite cubicle emergency showers swiftly and effectively remove hazardous substances from the skin and clothing in case of accidental exposure. Also, these showers minimise potential harm caused by chemical spills, splash accidents or other incidents that could result in chemical contamination. Furthermore, maintaining cleanliness and hygiene is a top priority, which is why Justrite shower units feature a covered bowl design. This design prevents contamination and eliminates the need for dust covers. They are offered in two variants: foot-activated emergency showers and hand-activated emergency showers.

These cubicle showers feature a stainless-steel hollow section frame enclosed in GRP sheeting and SS pipes to ensure corrosion resistance and extended product life. To further enhance personnel safety, these systems include a sump pump with an integral float switch that ensures automatic pump control and prevents the risk of running dry. The strip screen on these showers prevents the accumulation of contaminated water outside the cubicle area.
How to Use Emergency Cubicle Showers?
- Justrite emergency cubicle showers are easy-to-use units.
- To engage the shower, just push the lever at the front, clockwise.
- However, to turn on the eye / face wash unit, pull forward the cover of the eyewash.

Can These Showers Help With Eye Irritation?
