chemical storage

Hazardous material housing

Chemical storage is the containment and preservation of chemical substances, typically in specialized facilities, containers, or cabinets designed to prevent leaks, reactions, or hazards.

Proper chemical storage requires attention to compatibility—some chemicals react dangerously when stored near others.

The lab's chemical storage protocols require acids and bases to be kept in separate cabinets.
