Which industries require compliant chemical storage? While oil refineries, auto manufacturing, and construction are the more common industries requiring on-site chemical storage, the list is not exhaustive. Almost every sector of the economy is affected by chemical storage. Hazardous chemicals are any substance that poses a threat to the environment or human health. Dangerous chemicals have a welcomed place on any job site when used correctly. Powerful fuels, lubricants, degreasers, and even hand sanitizers help power the economy while keeping job sites clean and efficient. While the list of industries necessitating chemical storage might appear self-evident, we’ve researched lesser-known entities requiring the same level of protection as larger industrial manufacturers.
Cemeteries and Morgues
Niche chemical storage gives new meaning to cradle-to-grave protection. Not even the dead can escape the insidious dangers of hazardous materials. Biomedical contamination is a persistent threat at mortuaries and medical facilities performing autopsies, death investigations, and embalming. Formaldehyde, a common embalming fluid, and other anti-edemic chemicals pose inherent risks to human health if not stored correctly. Our fire-rated chemical storage cabinets and safety lockers can protect small volumes of preservatives, embalming fluids, and biomedical waste in segregated compartments during various stage of exhumation and post-mortem processing.
Jails and Prison
Dangerous criminals aren’t the only threats requiring lock and key protection. Correctional facilities, jails, and prisons rely on industrial-grade disinfectants and cleaners to maintain sanitary conditions. Law enforcement agencies must also keep tear gas and other riot-suppressing equipment for combative situations. Our chemical storage lockers can storage large volumes of industrial cleaners and tear gas while segregating these dangerous elements from unruly inmates and vulnerable correctional facility staff.
Parks and Recreation
Noncompliant and negligible chemical storage practices are never a walk in the park. Public recreational areas require sanitizers and heavy-duty chemicals to maintain your city’s park and recreation venues. Public swimming pools are teeming with potential biotoxins and viruses if not treated with chlorine water treatment, which is volatile and harmful if not properly stored. Our fire-rated chemical storage lockers are a practical solution to a prevailing health dilemma confounding most municipalities.
Military
Our armed forces are tasked with the tremendous responsibility of protecting our domestic interests and foreign affairs. Militaries rely on large ammunition stockpiles, heavy weaponry lubricants, and explosive ordnance to complement their threat deterrent arsenals. We can accommodate various grade explosives and flammable materials necessary in maintaining optimal joint operations command and battlefield dominance.
