COSHH Containers

With proper maintenance, shipping container facilities designed for safe chemical storage can last for several decades. Their inherent resilience to environmental factors and the quality of materials used, especially in hazardous storage containers, ensure longevity and consistent protection for the chemicals stored within.

Using shipping containers for chemstores offers significant environmental benefits. They repurpose used containers, reducing waste. Furthermore, their long lifespan means fewer resources are used in the long term, as opposed to constructing new facilities. Additionally, the tight seal of these containers minimises the risk of chemical leaks, helping safeguard the environment.

In most cases, if a chemstore is being used temporarily and can be easily relocated, planning permission may not be necessary. However, for permanent installations, especially for large chemical storage containers, it’s advisable to consult with local authorities regarding planning permission and other related regulations.

While a chemical storage container is designed to hold a wide range of substances, it’s crucial to avoid storing incompatible chemicals together. Mixing certain chemicals can lead to reactions, producing toxic fumes or even explosions. Always refer to material safety data sheets (MSDS) and consult experts when in doubt.

Absolutely. At ModCon Cabins, we understand that each client might have unique requirements. Whether you need standard chemical storage containers or bespoke sizes, we can design and manufacture a chemstore tailored to your specific needs.

Multiple security features can be incorporated, including high-security locks, CCTV systems, alarm systems, reinforced doors and windows and access control systems. The aim is to ensure that the chemicals are protected from unauthorised access at all times.

Yes, when using a chemical storage container, it’s essential to familiarise yourself with the COSHH regulations, which stipulate safety measures for handling and storing hazardous substances. Regular training for staff, proper labelling, ventilation systems and spill control measures are among the critical safety considerations to ensure safe operations.

Laboratory Chemicals
