Safety cabinets & chemical cupboards for high-risk areas storage

Our chemical storage cabinets and safety cupboards are built for the secure storage of hazardous chemicals, solvents, and flammable liquids in workshops, laboratories, schools, and industrial sites. In larger facilities, safety cabinets are often used alongside chemical storage shelving to create structured, compliant storage areas for different container sizes and usage frequencies.

From compact chemical cupboards for small quantities to fire-resistant FORMULA cabinets for high-risk flammable storage, our range covers every requirement. All lockable, ventilated, and GHS-labelled. Backed by our 7-year guarantee.

Which chemical storage cabinet do you need?

Fire-resistant chemical cabinets

Standard powder-coated steel chemical cabinets are not fireproof. Where HSE Guide HSG51 or the DSEAR Regulations 2002 require enhanced fire protection for larger volumes of flammable liquids, the fire-resistant FORMULA chemical cabinet is the correct specification. Built to withstand fire exposure, with adjustable ventilation and shelving, available at 2095x1000x600mm. The FORMULA with electronic lock suits sites where keyless access control is required.

Chemical cupboards and safety storage cabinets

Our hazardous substance cabinets are the standard chemical cupboard for workshops, school science stores, maintenance rooms, and laboratory environments. Powder-coated steel construction, three-point locking, adjustable galvanised shelving, and a fully-welded leak-proof sump base. Available in heights from 710mm to 1830mm and widths from 457mm to 1220mm. All supplied with interchangeable GHS hazard labels and conforming to HSG51 and DSEAR 2002.

Mini chemical storage cupboards

For small quantities of hazardous chemicals or sites with limited storage space, our mini hazardous substance cabinet (760x457x457mm) and mini COSHH cabinet (457x457x305mm) provide the same lockable, ventilated, sump-fitted specification as full-height models in a compact format. Suited to school labs, small workshops, and any setting where a full-height safety cabinet is not needed.

Mobile chemical storage cabinets

Our mobile hazardous substance cabinet travels on four castor wheels, allowing chemicals to be moved between workstations without decanting. A liquid-tight sump base and lockable door keep contents secure during movement. Classified to EN 13501-1:2007+A1:2009 (Reaction to Fire: A2-s2 d0). Suitable for manufacturing facilities, laboratories, and workshop environments where chemicals are used at multiple locations.

Chemical storage furniture built to reduce everyday risks

Our safety storage cabinets are made from strong steel and finished with durable coatings to resist wear and corrosion. Inside, shelves are designed to retain spills and prevent leaks from spreading - an important feature when dealing with hazardous materials. Lockable doors keep contents secure, while some models also include clear warning labels and fire-resistant linings to support workplace safety rules.

To keep chemicals and general stock separate, teams often pair them with storage cabinets for small parts or other storage furniture, helping to prevent mix-ups and improve organisation. For more specialist needs, explore our full range of COSHH cabinets and chemical handling units built for workplace compliance.

Many customers combine safety cabinets with warehouse racking for bulk goods or workshop cupboards for non-hazardous tools to create clear zones, reduce cross-contamination, and maintain safer, more efficient workspaces.
