Corrosive Storage
Corrosive Storage covers specialized cabinets for holding acids and alkalis with internal components resistant to systematic chemical corrosion. They differ from general chemical cabinets by a lined internal ceiling and corrosion-resistant materials. Essential in laboratories and facilities using strong acids and highly corrosive alkalis.

About this category
Corrosive storage cabinets address a specific challenge: resisting the continuous chemical corrosion caused by acidic and alkaline vapors inside the cabinet. The design: a steel body lined with a corrosion-resistant polymer internal layer, shelves of non-reactive materials (polypropylene or lined steel), a lined containment sump that captures leaks, and venting fitted with special filters for acid vapors. Types by class: acid-only cabinets (usually color-coded blue), alkali cabinets (another color), and dual cabinets with an internal divider that separates the two classes to prevent cross-reaction. Features: class-coded warning signage, and indicators to inspect the integrity of the internal liner. Uses: analytical-chemistry laboratories, electroplating facilities, battery plants, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and chemical water-treatment facilities. A substantive difference from general chemical cabinets: corrosive cabinets are built with corrosion-resistant internal materials to prevent damage to the body from the inside. Lining grade and sub-storage classes (acid-only, alkali-only, dual) are chosen from the product documentation to match the chemicals in use at the facility.
