For safety reasons, corrosive products (acids and bases) must be stored in safety cabinets to avoid any risk of leakage or breakage of a bottle. You should also make sure that you keep acids and bases separate when storing them. Some of the cabinets in this catalogue are compartmentalised, allowing incompatible products to be stored in the same enclosure.
This catalogue offers different storage solutions for your corrosive products, depending on your safety requirements. Whatever your field of activity (workshop, laboratory, storage warehouse, production unit, etc.), if you store products that are not very corrosive to very corrosive, you need to store them in safety cabinets. Don't hesitate to contact us for fast, personalised advice.
What is an anti-corrosion cabinet?
There are two main types of cabinets for storing corrosive products. The first type, designed for storing less corrosive products, is made up of steel safety cabinets. These are fitted with high-density polyethylene or PVC overprotection for the shelves and drip tray. The second type, designed for storing highly concentrated and therefore highly corrosive products (nitric, sulphuric, hydrochloric, hydrofluoric acids, etc.), consists of cabinets made of high-density polyethylene or cellular PVC. These corrosion-resistant materials offer perfect resistance to corrosive vapours and liquids.
Is forced ventilation necessary?
Forced ventilation is very important for metal safety cabinets in order to extend their service life. Despite the use of high-quality steel and paint, nothing can prevent acids from corroding a metal cabinet over time. What's more, for the well-being of users, we strongly recommend that you ventilate your cabinet, whether it's made of steel or anti-corrosion material, in order to evacuate any dangerous vapours that may form in the cabinet. We therefore invite you to consult our various solutions in terms of forced ventilation (external discharge, filtration with activated carbon filter, etc.) at the end of this catalogue to find the one best suited to your needs. Please do not hesitate to contact us for any further information.
