Codes and Regulations Governing the Storage of Hazardous Chemicals and Processes
Governmental codes and regulations dictate the correct selection and placement of hazardous chemical storage Lockers, Non-Occupancy Buildings and Occupancy Buildings. The characteristics of the stored material i.e. flammability, pH, material storage temperature, the size and type of container(s), the total quantity stored, and the storage location in relation to other structures will determine which code(s) and regulations pertain to your application.
Regulations and Codes of note that may affect your storage application are NFPA 30 "Storage of Flammable Liquids", the IBC and IFC "International Building Code" and "International Fire Code", as well as the code of Federal regulations 40 CFR 264.175 (OSHA). Additionally independent third party testing agencies such as Factory Mutual (FM) have developed standards for the storage of flammable and other hazardous materials. DENIOS sells and produces Factory Mutual approved products.
DENIOS sales and engineering professionals are well versed in the requirements of National codes as they pertain to the storage of hazardous chemicals. However, the local code enforcement official or "Authority Having Jurisdiction" is the official closest to the situation with the responsibility to interpret the applicable codes in the light of all local factors. The local "AHJ" should always be consulted before purchasing any type of hazardous material storage equipment. DENIOS is always available to assist customers with supplementary information to support approval process.
DENIOS Quality Assurance Program
As part of our ongoing commitment to quality, DENIOS maintains a formalized, structured Quality Assurance Program. This program mandates that designs are checked and rechecked by 3rd Party Engineering firms for structural loading, seismic, and other code compliance factors.
DENIOS equipment is also engineered to satisfy any number of regulatory agencies including:
Relating to equipment manufacture, our Quality Assurance Program also insures all products are thoroughly inspected and tested before shipping. Tests range from, but are not limited to, pre-paint sump weld leak tests to temperature control tests for our heated and cooled structures. Testing is documented and overseen by our Engineering, Technical Sales, and Production staff.
The DENIOS System
The DENIOS System of Storage Lockers, Occupancy Buildings, and Non-Occupancy Buildings specifically address the material handling and processing needs of the client. All our structures are designed for placement indoors or out and can be easily relocated via crane or forklift. All provide options for fire rating, explosion protection, and temperature control. All designs address what and how much is being storage and how often it needs to be handled. And all are compliant.
DENIOS is the pioneer in the development of Drum and IBC Non-Occupancy Storage Buildings as a safer and more efficient alternative to Walk-In/Occupancy buildings for chemical storage. The Non-Occupancy design of these buildings, featuring full-face opening door styles, allows all materials to be moved via forklift, relieving personnel from having to enter a potentially hazardous environment and provide complete physical separation of stored chemicals from the surrounding facility and/or from other incompatible chemicals or ignitions.
DENIOS Occupancy Chemcial Storage Building designs provide more storage flexibility, enhancing the efficiency of the structure over competitive models. Choose from over 25 standard sizes to provide the optimal space for storing your hazardous chemicals or processes.
Designed for occupancy by personnel, DENIOS also provides numerous options to enhance safety, efficiency, and security in all our Occupancy Buildings. Most models are FM Approved.
DENIOS's provides business and industry with the most complete Chemcial Storage Locker program available. Designed for small volume outdoor storage of drums and totes, DENIOS manufactures a variety of models; from secured, basic storage of non-combustible chemicals to more robust designs for hazardous applications, including 2-hour fire rated construction.
The majority of DENIOS Lockers are FM Approved.
DENIOS offer a wide range of safety cabinets for a variety of stored chemicals. Our portfolio of chemical storage includes acid storage, paint storage cabinets, flammable storage, and pesticide storage.
All DENIOS hazardous liquids cabinets have one thing in common: long-term investment security for the customer through the fabrication of high-quality materials, proven concepts and tested performance. Most cabinets carry FM Approval. Additional shelves, drip trays, pull-out shelves available accessories.
Ideal for use in laboratories, stores, warehouses and anywhere where hazardous liquids need to be stored safely and securely, safety cabinet provides the highest level of security while enabling effective work processes.
