The importance of proper aerosol storage

Improper storage of high-pressure aerosol cans and products can result in severe consequences, including fires, explosions, and toxic fumes. These hazards make it crucial to adhere to stringent storage guidelines and implement safety measures that mitigate these risks. 

The inherent danger of flammable gases under pressure demands a storage solution that secures the products and complies with regulatory standards.

Flammable storage cabinets are specifically designed to address these safety concerns. They provide a controlled environment that minimises the chances of accidental ignition while ensuring that the storage area complies with all relevant safety regulations. 

By investing in a specialised aerosol cage or cabinet, businesses can significantly reduce the risk of accidents, protect their assets, and maintain a safe working environment for all employees.

Features of a Steelspan aerosol storage cage

Our aerosol storage cages are engineered with various features that make them ideal for safely storing flammable aerosol cans and products. These features ensure that your storage solution is compliant with safety standards and practical for day-to-day use in various industrial settings.

Robust Construction

Steelspan aerosol storage cages are built with heavy-duty sheet steel, ensuring long-lasting durability and resistance to impact. This robust construction is crucial in preventing unauthorised access, protecting the contents from external hazards, and withstanding the demanding environments in which they are often placed. 

Whether in a busy workshop or a healthcare facility, these cages are designed to endure tough conditions while providing maximum protection for your aerosol products.

Natural Ventilation

Ventilation is a critical factor in the safe storage of aerosol products. Steelspan cages are designed with perforated walls or mesh panels that allow for adequate airflow, preventing the accumulation of flammable gases. This natural ventilation feature is essential in reducing the risk of explosions and ensuring that any potential gas build-up is safely dispersed.

Secure Locking Mechanisms

Our aerosol storage cages have pad-lockable doors and bolt-down plates to prevent unauthorised access and enhance security. These features ensure that only authorised personnel can access the stored products, adding an extra layer of protection against theft, tampering, or accidental misuse.

This level of security is vital in environments where the safety of both personnel and products is paramount.

Compliance with Australian Standards

Steelspan aerosol cages are designed to fully comply with various safety standards and regulations, including the Australian Standard AS 4332-2004 for storing and handling gases in cylinders. This compliance guarantees that businesses meet all legal requirements, providing peace of mind that your storage practices are up to code. 

All cages have relevant warning and safety signage in line with AS1216 and AS1319, ensuring clear communication of potential hazards.

Customisable

While we offer versatile sizing options ranging from cages that can store 18 to 625 cans, we understand that every business has unique requirements.
