[Nhcoll-l] safety cabinet fot chemicals

[Dirk Neumann]

Dear Lennart,

concur with Simon that the intention of your question remains a bit 
unclear, perhaps you could give us a bit more content?

Simonis right that storage of regulated chemicals usually requires 
specifically safety rated storage furniture; for the storage of jars in 
fluid storage, there are pros and cons regarding storage inside such 
cabinets (e.g. just to mention microclimats that may build up inside 
cabinets or more staff time needs to be considered for regular 
monitoring intervals) - so this really is wide field with a multitude of 
possible answers.

With best wishes
Dirk

This depends on your country’s regulations for storage of these fluids. In the UK we are required to store fluids that are carcinogenic / mutagenic / flammable / corrosive / toxic &c inside a special metal and lockable cabinet that has been painted with corrosion-resistant paint.
