Tobin Eyewash Story
In 1965, Michael Tobin, the founder and inventor of Tobin Eyewash and the Tobin Bottle, got the idea of an eyewash with liquid enough to wash the eyes continuously for 15 minutes. Also adding an eye supporting ring to the bottle facilitated prolonged washing during transportation to a hospital. The patented idea was soon acclaimed by media and the Swedish work environment authority.
In 1984 the Tobin Eyewash began large-scale production. By attending expos and through customers, the concept of prolonged eye washing after exposure to harmful chemicals spread over the world. Today, this is the standard procedure when washing chemicals from the eyes.
Today, Tobin Sweden exports products worldwide with manufacturing and office in Sweden and a recently opened a sales office in China.
