Suitable Applications
HazSafe Site Security Boxes suit construction sites, depots, workshops, plant yards and vehicles wherever substances hazardous to health need to be stored and transported securely. The ventilated, sump-lined, lockable design supports the control measures expected under a COSHH risk assessment.
These combine security with spill containment. For tools and general equipment without hazardous contents, a site box or tool box costs less.
How to Use the HazSafe Security Box
- Bolt the supplied black plastic handles to the box using an allen key.
- Site the box in a well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials and, where required, bolt it down for a fixed installation.
- Place hazardous substances inside in their original, correctly labelled, sealed containers.
- Fit your own padlock to the toggle latch (6mm shackle recommended for the 7.2mm loop) and keep keys secure.
- Store only the substances and quantities permitted by your COSHH risk assessment, keeping incompatible materials apart.
Warning:
Always consult the safety data sheet (SDS) for every substance before storage. Never store incompatible substances together, and observe the quantities permitted by your COSHH risk assessment.
Safety Information
- Carry out a COSHH risk assessment before storing hazardous substances and follow the control measures it identifies.
- Store substances only in sealed, correctly labelled containers and keep incompatible materials apart.
- Ensure the area around the box is adequately ventilated.
- Provide and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and have suitable spill absorbents to hand.
- Fit a suitable padlock and restrict access to authorised, trained personnel.
Inspection and Maintenance
Clean the paintwork periodically with warm soapy water or a foaming cleaner. Clean and lightly oil the toggle lock as required with a light oil (3-in-1 or similar). Inspect the sump and ventilation openings regularly and keep them clear, and check that warning labels remain legible.
