Everything dangerous,
stored beautifully.
Reinforced drums. Double-walled tanks. Spill-containment systems. Built for EHS managers who treat compliance like architecture โ every hazard class in its place, every audit passed with confidence.
Know what you're storing.
Know what it can do.
Six hazard classes. Six sets of regulations. One system that handles all of them โ and keeps your facility off the EPA's citation list.
Flammables & Combustibles
Flash points below 100ยฐF demand FM-approved cabinets, grounded drum storage, and ventilated rooms with explosion-proof lighting.
โMost common EPA violation category โ 34% of all facility citationsโ
Corrosives
Acids and bases stored in poly-lined secondary containment with corrosion-resistant shelving. Segregated from flammables by at least one fire wall.
โAverage remediation cost after corrosive spill: $47,000โ
Oxidizers
Peroxides and nitrates stored in non-combustible rooms, away from organic materials. Quantity limits enforced per IFC Chapter 40.
โ18ยฐF temperature increase doubles oxidizer reaction rateโ
Acutely Toxic Substances
Pesticides, cyanides, and organophosphates require locked storage, SCBA access stations within 10 seconds of entry point, and continuous air monitoring.
โOSHA PSM facilities must maintain 24/7 toxic inventory recordsโ
Unstable Reactives
Water-reactive and pyrophoric materials isolated in dedicated cells with inert atmosphere monitoring and blast-rated door assemblies.
โReactive incidents account for 12% of all hazmat emergency responsesโ
Compressed Gases
Cylinder storage with chain-secured upright positioning, pressure relief zones, and segregated oxidizer/fuel gas areas per CGA P-1.
โUnsecured cylinders: #1 cause of lab injuries at university facilitiesโ
The cost of
getting it wrong.
These aren't hypotheticals. They're the line items on violation notices filed with the EPA, OSHA, and state environmental agencies every quarter.
Quarterly audits without current Safety Data Sheets generate per-day citations. Most facilities discover gaps during the audit, not before it.
Affects 61% of first-time audit facilities
Acids stored adjacent to bases. Oxidizers next to flammables. A single shelf placement error triggers hazmat response, facility lockdown, and OSHA investigation.
23% of chemical incidents traced to storage layout
Without properly sized containment berms, a single drum failure contaminates floor drains, triggers CERCLA reporting, and initiates multi-agency response.
Floor drain contamination = mandatory EPA notification within 24hrs
Repeated violations escalate to consent decrees. Operations halt. Personnel face individual liability. Insurance carriers invoke exclusions. This is the number that keeps EHS directors awake.
Average shutdown duration: 47 days. Lost production value: irreversible.
Every one of these scenarios is preventable with correct storage architecture.
