Chemical storage facilities must adhere to strict safety standards to prevent accidents, environmental contamination, and health hazards.

1. Facility Design

Fireproof construction with explosion-resistant walls and ventilation systems

Chemical-resistant flooring with spill containment (e.g., bund walls)

Climate control for temperature-sensitive substances

2. Safety Measures

Segregation of incompatible chemicals (e.g., acids away from bases)

Proper labeling with GHS hazard pictograms and safety data

Secondary containment for liquids and hazardous materials

3. Emergency Preparedness

Fire suppression systems (sprinklers, foam, or CO₂)

Spill kits, eyewash stations, and emergency showers

Clear evacuation routes and safety signage

4. Compliance & Training

Regular inspections and employee safety training

Compliance with OSHA, NFPA, and local regulations

Proper chemical storage minimizes risks and ensures regulatory compliance.
