Corrosive Cabinets

What are Corrosive Cabinets?

Corrosive cabinets are specially designed storage units intended for acids, alkalis, and other corrosive chemicals. Constructed from durable materials such as powder-coated steel, stainless steel, or specialised plastic, these cabinets are resistant to chemical damage. They often feature secure lockable doors, adjustable shelves, and spill containment trays, providing a safe and organised storage environment. Corrosive cabinets are designed to comply with Australian safety standards, including AS3780, ensuring that hazardous substances are managed safely and legally.

Facilities handling mixed goods may also need dangerous goods storage cabinets to keep flammables, corrosives, and gases properly segregated.

 

Benefits of Corrosive Cabinets

Investing in high-quality corrosive cabinets provides multiple benefits for workplaces that handle hazardous chemicals:

• Enhanced Safety – Minimises the risk of spills, burns, and accidental exposure while protecting staff and equipment.

• Regulatory Compliance – Meets Australian standards (AS3780), ensuring your workplace stays compliant and audit-ready.

• Durable and Reliable Construction – Resistant to corrosion, offering long-term protection in harsh environments.

• Organised Storage – Keeps acids, alkalis, and other chemicals separated to prevent dangerous reactions. Dedicated corrosive goods storage cabinets are also available for workplaces with large volumes of acids and bases.

• Spill Containment – Built-in trays and basins capture leaks, reducing environmental and safety hazards.

• Ease of Access & Efficiency – Adjustable shelving makes chemicals easy to store and retrieve, speeding up workflow.

• Cost-Effective Protection – Prevents accidents, product loss, and costly downtime, saving money over time.

By using corrosive cabinets, workplaces can create a safer, more organised, and compliant environment for handling hazardous chemicals. For flammables, dedicated flammable liquid cabinets or flammable cabinets provide the same peace of mind.

 

Industries and Applications

Corrosive cabinets are essential across industries where acids, alkalis, or other reactive substances are regularly used. Common applications include:

• Laboratories – Safely storing acids, bases, and reagents used in experiments and testing. Many labs also depend on gas cylinder cabinets to store compressed gases safely.

• Manufacturing – Handling corrosive chemicals used in production processes such as cleaning agents, plating solutions, or chemical treatments.

• Education and Research Facilities – Protecting students and staff by securely storing laboratory chemicals.

• Maintenance and Facilities Management – Organising cleaning chemicals and maintenance agents safely. Facilities that also handle aerosols should consider aerosol cans storage cages for added compliance.

• Warehousing and Logistics – Safe storage of bulk corrosive chemicals prior to distribution or use. Larger operations may require dangerous goods site storage for high-volume chemical handling.

These cabinets are suitable for both small and large-scale operations, providing safe chemical management across workplaces.

 

Why Invest in Corrosive Cabinets?

Improper chemical storage can lead to costly accidents, serious injuries, and heavy regulatory penalties. Corrosive cabinets provide a smarter way to protect staff, equipment, and the environment. By keeping chemicals secure and accessible, they improve workflow while reducing risks. In the long run, these cabinets deliver peace of mind, compliance assurance, and strong returns by preventing costly incidents and ensuring safe day-to-day operations. Workplaces managing LPG should also consider forklift gas storage cages to complete their compliance measures.
