Suitable Applications
This COSHH cupboard is suited to industrial, commercial and general workplaces, laboratories, workshops and stores. It is suitable anywhere substances hazardous to health need to be stored safely and segregated from incompatible materials. The clearly labelled, lockable design supports the control measures expected under a COSHH risk assessment. For applications requiring higher security, our COSHH Security Cupboard range is fitted with a seven-lever anti-pick safe lock.
Warning:
Always consult the safety data sheet (SDS) for every substance before storage. Never store incompatible chemicals together. Do not store quantities or substances beyond the scope of your COSHH risk assessment.
At this size a mobile version is available where the cabinet needs to move with the work; the same cabinet is made for Hazardous substances. See all COSHH storage for the full range.
Inspection and Maintenance
Clean the paintwork periodically with warm soapy water or a foaming cleaner. Oil the hinges and lock sparingly as required with a light oil (3-in-1 or similar). Where a sump is fitted, inspect it regularly and clean out any spillage promptly using a suitable absorbent. Check that hazard warning labels remain legible and replace them if damaged. Replacement locks and spare keys are available on request.
