When dealing with liquids of a flammable nature, it is crucial to ensure that they are stored away correctly.
Not ensuring that flammable liquids are protected could result in a small controllable fire very quickly becoming a raging blaze.
By ensuring you have a flammable cabinet that adheres to COSHH regulations (Control of
Substances Hazardous to Health), you can minimize the potential risk caused by fire.
There are a number of different types of cabinets suitable for storing flammable liquids, such as paint, away in.
Here are just a few:
Flammable Liquid Storage: The most obvious choice. Specifically made to house flammable liquids, flammable liquid storage solutions are available in a number of varying sizes – meaning you can a cabinet that is an exact fit.
Paint and Ink Safety Cabinets: These storage containers are specially made to keep paints and inks protected. Some will have doors that have to be manually closed, whilst others benefit from having a self-closing door system.
Drum Safety Cabinets: Drum safety cabinets are much larger than the previously mentioned cabinets. Big enough to store drums filled with potentially dangerous chemicals, these cabinets are usually double-walled and manufactured from a much thicker gauge steel. A gap of one and a half inches of air space between the walls and the inclusion a fire baffle and cap ensures that no half-measures are taken as far as safety is concerned.
