5 reasons to use Sysbel outdoor chemical storage cabinets

Unlike indoor safety cabinets, outdoor chemical storage cabinets are constructed to withstand various factors. They are completely waterproof and have a reinforced heavy-duty design that can withstand any weather conditions. In addition, their design is vandal-proof, with a safety padlock to protect your material. Therefore, they can store any chemicals safely outdoors, which has a series of benefits for your business.

1. Obstacles

Outdoor areas tend to have fewer workers passing by, and there are fewer activities nearby. Therefore, storing chemicals outdoors can reduce the chance of employees contacting the storage unit and internal chemicals. This, coupled with the fact that there is often more operating space in the outer area, also reduces the risk of accidental bumps or damage to the storage unit of the maintenance vehicle.

2. Increase the space

The use of outdoor chemical storage cabinets can make better use of the space in the workplace, thereby increasing productivity. Since storage units are usually bulky, in order to ensure the safety of the chemicals in them, they may take up a lot of space. Not only does this take up valuable space that can be used to store inventory or safety equipment, but it may also prevent vehicles such as forklifts from moving freely throughout the workplace.

3. Minimize the impact of incidents

Due to storage outdoors, the impact of any chemical accidents is minimized. If the store is located in the yard of a manufacturing warehouse, there is less chance of chemical leaks or reactions (such as explosions) coming into contact with valuable machinery, inventory, or employees. It also reduces the risk of potentially deadly chemical fumes. The outdoor environment provides natural ventilation to help ensure the safety of your employees. However, whether indoors or outdoors, chemical spill kits should still be placed near all chemicals.

4. Multifunctional option

external chemical cabinet is also a very general choice. Although they are designed to withstand any weather conditions, they can also be used indoors if required. In contrast, internal cabinets cannot be used outdoors without suffering damage and undermining the safety of internal chemicals. Therefore, for companies that need indoor and outdoor storage, choosing an outdoor cabinet may be a more sensible choice because it allows them to move storage options as needed.

5. Reduce costs

If you choose to build an explosion-proof warehouse outdoors, perhaps buying an outdoor chemical storage cabinet will reduce costs for you.

The Sysbel outdoor chemical storage cabinet is made of strong heavy-duty steel, with fire-resistant gypsum board wrapped between the outer and inner panels.

Available optional accessories include loading ramps, shelving, and fire suppression systems. Outdoor chemical storage cabinets have passed FM certification and comply with EPA and NFPA requirements. Most chemical storage lockers are far away from inhabited buildings. The distance depends on the chemicals stored and the fire rating of the locker. According to IBC, for hazardous occupation of H2 or less, the fire rating and location distance of outdoor chemical storage cabinets are as follows:

Non-combustible: more than 30 feet away from inhabited buildings

2-hour fire protection: 10 to 30 feet away from inhabited buildings
