Continuing the drive to bring more new products to market, Acorn Engineering Company introduces its newest product line, Acorn Safety. This is a full line of eyewashes , eye / face washes , emergency drench showers , combination showers , emergency drench hoses and mixing valves which further complement products from the Acorn Family of Companies .

With over 50 years of experience as a manufacturer in the plumbing industry behind it, Acorn Safety now provides a complete offering of drench showers, eyewashes, portable units, and tempered water blending packages, all certified to ANSI Z358.1-2004. Whether the selection requires barrier free access in an institutional setting or corrosion resistance and durability at a heavy industrial site, all Acorn Safety models are built with the same quality and innovation you have come to expect from Acorn Engineering.

With an eye to specifications, Acorn Safety offers a full range of standard features as well as many options so that the engineer, or safety professional, can select or design the correct safety drench fixture to meet the needs of their work place environment. What ever the application, Acorn Safety will work with owner and engineer to create the best safety system to meet the hazards present.

Acorn Safety has one goal and that is to provide the most comprehensive emergency drench products possible. Using a simple four (4) digit product design structure, any manner of features can be combined to create a fixture that will meet or exceed the safety requirements of the hazards present in your workplace.

All Acorn Safety products are designed in the United States by our dedicated team of Acorn engineers. As a result we have incorporated standard design features that are additional cost “adds” by our competitors.

Here are some additional advantages: 

1. All of Acorn’s standard products utilize Hi-Visibility yellow powder coating and yellow ABS plastics. This increases the ability to locate the equipment in time of need as well as provides additional corrosion protection.
2. All eyewash and eye/face wash models and assemblies have an integral strainer for increased protection against harmful particulates in the water supply.
3. Flip-top dust covers are standard on all eyewash and eye/face wash heads.
4. The Acorn “wall of water” showerhead is one of the most effective showerheads in the industry. Its ability to provide complete drenching within the ANSI proscribed spray pattern is second to none.
5. Where ever possible, stainless steel components are used to increase durability and corrosion protection. Typically these components are wall brackets, eye and eye/face wash push levers, foot treadles, shower pull rods and some ball valve stems.
6. Many Acorn Safety models will be shipped fully assembled. This reduces costly labor and the potential for faulty installation. Those models not fully assembled will be shipped with as much pre-assembly as possible.
7. For your convenience, Acorn is willing to make and modify any drench system to your specifications.  When it comes to safety, there can never be an “alternative”!
