Eyewash First Aid Kit 21 x 7.5 x 13cm

Eyewash First Aid Kit 21 x 7.5 x 13cm

The eyewash first aid kit puts an immediate flush within reach of the work. Two 500mL bottles, eye pads, a conforming bandage, tape and an eye wound card sit in a weatherproof case. Mount it to a wall or carry it in a vehicle.Grit, swarf, dust and splash account for most eye injuries on Australian sites. Every one of them is time critical. The first flush happens where the injury happens, not at the site office.

Know what a portable kit covers

A bottle kit handles foreign bodies and minor irritants. A significant chemical splash needs a continuous flush that bottles cannot sustain. Safe Work Australia guidance points duty holders to AS 4775 for emergency eyewash and shower equipment. Portable self contained units carry their own flushing fluid. Refill or replace that fluid after any use.Read that as a two part decision. Where hazardous chemicals are present, plumbed eyewash or shower equipment does the primary job. The portable kit supplements it at the work face.

Keep it in service

Eyewash solution carries an expiry date and a shorter in use life once opened. Add the kit to the same inspection round that covers first aid kits and extinguishers. Replace bottles after any use rather than topping up. Our article on first aid in the workplace sets out the wider duty. Our team can specify eyewash coverage against your chemical register, and the wall-mounted eyewash station suits fixed positions where a case is not needed.
