Trouble could be brewing in the village Brewhaus before patrons could ever imbibe in that award-winning craft beer. Although breweries are synonymous with ‘good times’ and gatherings with close friends, hidden dangers are commonly lurking just behind the scenes. Breweries commonly used flavorants, hydroxide and various acids. These chemicals need proven steel protection. U.S. Hazmat Materials’ non fire rated chemical storage lockers can keep the suds flowing for years to come.
As connoisseurs take that long-awaited first sip of that crisp citric IPA, they seldomly consider the amount of work and time that goes into each lager. From fermentation to canning, the art of brewing beer is a tedious and nerve-racking process. One misstep or miscalculation can spoil an entire batch of seasonal ale.
Chemical storage lockers let you focus on what matters the most: making quality beer!
The same can also be said for the behind-the-scenes work. Breweries are huge operations. Like any other industry, breweries must abide by a stringent list of regulations pertaining to the handling of hazardous materials. On top of that, breweries must also adhere to strict guidelines set in place by the FDA and health inspectors. I think we could all use a cold one digesting that mountain of codes and ordinances!
Superior non-fire rated protection can protect craft beer operations
Insidious as it may sound, an indirect chemical exposure to your employees and those cascade hops could be a recipe for disaster. To prevent contamination and to keep the drinks flowing, breweries must keep a wealth of toxic, yet necessary cleaners on hand to sanitize vats and kegs. Before we crack another cold one, let’s run down the list of hazardous materials that are common at any craft beer operation. Several of these materials can be safely stored in a non fire rated chemical storage rental.

U.S. Hazmat Rentals can put a lid on dangerous chemicals inside your brewery with non fire rated chemical storage
Since most microbreweries operate on a seasonal basis, a rented non-fire rated chemical storage locker would provide adequate protection for any brew master without having to dish out additional cash for unnecessary extras. Perfecting your craft with the finest ingredients is not a cheap undertaking, so we want your pub to keep enough beer on tap to satisfy thirsty workers looking to unwind after a tough day at the office, factory or even at those pesky pencil pushing bureaucratic offices.
Keep dangerous chemicals isolated and separated with U.S. Hazmat Rental chemical storage buildings
You would never combine the wort for a lager with a cider or sour, so why would you mix dangerous chemicals with accelerants and catalysts? A U.S Hazmat Rental storage locker can easily be partitioned off into compartments and shelving to allow for the safe and accessible storage of dangerous chemicals without worrying about possible interactions. And while you might want to quickly sop off any excess run-off in the tap room, spills aren’t a problem inside our chemical storage buildings. Our innovative spill sump containment system is a grated floor operation that collects spills the moment they happen and properly contain the chemicals until they can be safely removed.
