Chemical Storage

Product labeling practices emphasize the importance of properly storing chemicals to eliminate the chance of mixing of incompatible substances. One effective way to minimize a chemical accident is to isolate chemical hazards. Chemical compatibility and security are critical when making storage decisions. The links below provide additional information on good chemical storage practices, chemical classification segregation (which chemical classes are compatible for storage), and a list of chemicals with a corresponding classification.
