Leaks of flammables, such as fuel, oil, or hydrogen, can create fire and explosion hazards.
Safety Spray Shields help meet regulatory standards set by agencies such as OSHA, EPA, BSEE, MSHA, SOLAS, ABS, DNV, and Lloyd’s. Spray Shields are also required by some insurance companies and underwriters, such as FM Global.
