EcoZinc SPF50 Sunscreen Station Installed at Cairns Hospital

EcoZinc is proud to announce the installation of a new sunscreen station at Cairns Hospital, helping supply workers with zinc SPF50 sunscreen directly on site.

Designed for outdoor workplaces, the EcoZinc sunscreen station gives workers easy access to EcoZinc Natural Mineral Sunscreen SPF50 throughout the day. By placing sunscreen where workers can see it and use it, sites can help make sun protection part of the daily routine, alongside hats, clothing, shade, water and regular skin checks.

A site may choose an EcoZinc sunscreen station because it provides a practical, visible and simple way to support worker health and safety. It helps employers encourage reapplication, raise awareness of UV risk, and show a clear commitment to preventing skin damage and long-term skin cancer risk among outdoor teams.

EcoZinc is proudly Australian made in Rocklea, Queensland. The product is a 100% mineral sunscreen, using Australian-made non-nano zinc oxide as its active ingredient. It is free from chemical UV filters, making it a strong choice for worksites looking for a straightforward mineral SPF50 sunscreen for workers.

Our formula has been developed for tough Australian conditions and for people who spend long periods outside, especially in high UV environments like Far North Queensland. The on-site station helps make protection more accessible by keeping sunscreen available where workers need it most.

EcoZinc UV Safety Station

We are also proud to continue supporting Danger Sun Overhead, Australia’s largest outdoor worker sun safety charity. Their work helps educate sites on the dangers of skin cancer and the preventative steps workers and employers can take to reduce UV exposure.

EcoZinc sunscreen dispensers and sunscreen stations are designed to make workplace sun protection easier, more visible and more consistent. Installing a zinc sunscreen dispenser on site gives workers quick access to SPF50 sunscreen in high-traffic areas such as site offices, entry points, lunchrooms, tool sheds and outdoor work zones. For employers, an on-site sunscreen station is a practical way to support UV protection, encourage regular sunscreen reapplication and strengthen workplace health and safety procedures for outdoor workers.

Together, EcoZinc and Danger Sun Overhead are helping make sun safety easier, more visible and more accessible across Australian worksites. By installing sunscreen stations on site, employers can take a simple but meaningful step toward protecting the people who keep Australia moving.
