Don't Overlook the Self Closing Pesticide Cabinets

How would your organization be affected if a Fire Marshall or Building Inspector reported that you’re not in compliance with Flammable safety codes? Sure, there’d be the necessity to prepare a plan for correcting the deficiency – a lot of time and paperwork – and maybe there’d even be a fine.

But what about the possible impact on the cost of your P/C and Liability insurance; or, worst case, the denial of a claim for fire damage?

One of the leading causes of industrial fires is the improper storage of flammable liquids or materials. Sometimes that “improper storage” means the absence of a simple Self-Closing Mechanism on a Flammable Safety Cabinet. Storage of flammable and combustible liquids is regulated by the provisions of NFPA 30 and Chapter 57 of the IFC (International Fire Code) and various local codes.
