Four important rules about the correct way of storing hazardous materials:
1. It is a good idea to create a list specifying the compatibility between the chemicals used in your laboratory/workplace as well as their general characteristics in order to assess their risk. A label with the substance nature must be placed on the containers. It is very important to store the chemicals according to their compatibility, since they can be explosive, flammable, oxidizing, cryogenic and so on. Some of them must never be kept together.
2. Make sure you comply with the Work Health and Safety Regulation and chemical storage regulations.
3. Don't forget to use appropriate working clothes and equipment.
4. Chemicals must be stored in ventilated environments.
The chemical safes offered on our website are innovative solutions for the professional storage and handling of dangerous substances. They are certified with 30 to 120 minutes fire resistance and possess an advanced ventilation system, which makes them a good combination of safety and quality.
