The Correct Way to Open the Chemical Storage Cabinet

In modern laboratories and industrial production environments, the safe storage of chemicals is an important issue that every company cannot ignore. With the increasing improvement of safety regulations and the improvement of people's awareness of health and environmental protection, Chemical Storage Cabinets have become key equipment for various institutions to achieve compliance operations.

Why do chemicals need special storage?

Many chemicals have dangerous characteristics such as flammable, explosive, toxic, and corrosive. If they are not stored properly, they are very likely to cause accidents such as fire, explosion, or poisoning. In addition, there may be reaction risks between different types of chemicals, such as acid-base neutralization reactions, redox reactions, etc. Therefore, the use of professional storage cabinets is not only to protect personnel safety, but also to avoid property losses and legal risks.

Types and functions of chemical storage cabinets

Depending on the different stored substances, chemical storage cabinets can be roughly divided into the following categories:

 Fireproof storage cabinets (Flammable Cabinets) : used to store flammable liquids, usually with a double-layer steel plate structure, equipped with a flame damper and an automatic closing device.

Acid & Alkali Cabinets: Suitable for corrosive liquids, the interior is mostly made of corrosion-resistant materials such as polypropylene to prevent leakage and corrosion.

Toxic Cabinets: Used to store toxic or volatile substances, equipped with a sealing structure and activated carbon filtration system to prevent harmful gas leakage.

Gas Cylinder Cabinets: Used to fix and protect gas cylinders, usually equipped with ventilation systems and explosion-proof devices.

Why must companies invest in compliant storage equipment?
