A chemical safety storage cabinet is a specialized storage unit designed to safely contain hazardous chemicals such as flammable liquids, corrosive substances, toxic agents, or volatile compounds. These cabinets are essential for laboratories, research institutions, industrial plants, and pharmaceutical facilities to prevent chemical accidents, protect personnel, and ensure regulatory compliance.
Fire resistance: Most cabinets are constructed with double-walled steel and include flame arresters and fireproof vent ports.
Corrosion resistance: Inner linings are made from epoxy-coated steel or polypropylene (PP) for strong acid and base resistance.
Leak containment: Built-in leak-proof sump at the bottom captures accidental spills.
Secure locking: Equipped with 3-point mechanical or electronic locks to prevent unauthorized access.
Color-coded classification:
Yellow: For flammable liquids
Blue: For corrosive acids and alkalis
Red: For toxic or hazardous chemicals
Minimizes the risk of fire, explosions, or toxic vapor exposure
Enables safe, organized, and compliant chemical storage
Protects laboratory personnel and the surrounding environment
Meets international standards such as ISO 9001, CE, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106, and NFPA 30
A chemical safety storage cabinet is not just a container—it's a safety control system. By separating dangerous chemicals from workspaces, heat sources, and incompatible substances, these cabinets play a critical role in laboratory safety and chemical management.
