Safety Cabinets for Hazardous Material Storage

Safety cabinets provide designated storage for flammable liquids, corrosive chemicals, pesticides, gas cylinders, and other hazardous materials. Choosing the right cabinet depends on the material being stored, the amount and container size, available space, and the storage features required for the application.

Flammable Safety Cabinets

Flammable safety cabinets are designed for storing flammable and combustible liquids in workplaces where designated storage is required. Available configurations include full-height, countertop, undercounter, wall-mount, slimline, stackable, and drum storage cabinets. Paint and ink cabinets provide additional configurations for applications involving those materials.

When selecting a cabinet, consider the types and quantities of liquids being stored, container sizes, available space, and the door and storage features required for the application.

Corrosive Chemical Cabinets

Corrosive cabinets are intended for acids, bases, and other corrosive chemicals that require storage separate from other materials. Options include standard, stackable, countertop, compact, and undercounter configurations.

The appropriate construction and configuration depend on the chemicals being stored, container sizes, required capacity, and available workspace.

Gas Cylinder Cabinets

Gas cylinder cabinets provide designated storage for gas and medical gas cylinders. Available options include steel, galvanized, and medical gas cabinets, with some models featuring fire-lined interiors.

Choose a cabinet based on the type and number of cylinders, cylinder dimensions, installation location, and any additional features required for the application.

Pesticide & Hazardous Material Cabinets

Pesticide cabinets provide dedicated storage for pesticides, herbicides, and related chemicals. Available configurations include standard cabinets, drum storage cabinets, and high-security models.

Hazardous material cabinets are available for specialized applications, including outdoor drum storage, poison storage, and non-combustible storage. Select the cabinet based on the material, container type, security needs, and storage environment.

Spill Containment Cabinets

Spill containment cabinets are designed for applications where storage and additional protection against leaks or spills are important. Options include flammable spill containment, wall-mount, mobile, and other specialized configurations.

Look for features such as spill trays, sumps, leakproof sills, or other containment components when they are appropriate for the materials being stored.

Safety Cabinet Size & Configuration

Safety cabinets are available in a range of sizes to accommodate both larger storage requirements and space-constrained work areas. Full-height cabinets provide greater storage capacity, while countertop, undercounter, slimline, and wall-mount models can fit into areas with limited floor space.

For larger quantities of flammable liquids, drum storage cabinets are designed for applications involving drums or barrels. Compact and countertop cabinets can be appropriate for smaller quantities when storage needs are closer to the point of use.

Safety Cabinet Features to Consider

Features vary by cabinet type and model. Depending on the application, options may include double-wall construction, adjustable shelves, self-closing doors, locking mechanisms, grounding connections, ventilation, leakproof sills, spill containment, and specialized interior materials.

The right features depend on the material being stored and the requirements of the application. Review the product specifications and applicable storage requirements rather than selecting a cabinet based only on the number of available features.
