Safety cabinets - toxic substances

Toxic Safety Cabinets: What Are They and Why Are They Important?

Toxic safety cabinets, also known as toxic substance storage cabinets, are specialised storage solutions designed to safely store and contain Class 6 toxic substances. These cabinets play a crucial role in ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations while protecting personnel and the environment from the dangers posed by toxic substances.

These cabinets provide a secure environment for storing toxic substances. The bright white and signed exterior provides a dedicated space for storing toxic chemicals, segregated from other dangerous goods. Toxic substances sit on adjustable shelving above an in-built containment sump which captures and contains any leaks or spills inside the cabinet. The double wall construction with a thermal barrier and self closing doors also provides superior fire resistance. Our range of cabinets are available in a range of sizes from 30L storage capacity through to 250L storage capacity.

Toxic Cabinets: Made to meet AS4452-1997 Australian Standards

Toxic cabinets are essential for the safe storage of hazardous substances, and understanding their key features is crucial for compliance with AS4452-1997, the Australian standard for the safe storage and handling of toxic substances.

This standard outlines specific compliance requirements in regards to cabinet construction and design. According to the standard they must have important safety features such as a double wall with thermal barrier, ventilation, self closing doors, clear safety signage and perforated shelves to allow free air movement inside the cabinet.
