Improper storage of flammables is the leading cause of industrial fires in the United States. While use of approved safety cans is the first layer of protection, the storage of flammables in approved safety cabinets provides the much needed second layer of protection. The Bench Top 2 Gallon Self-Close Flammable Storage Cabinets are ideal for storage of smaller container of flammable liquids and due to the convenient size allow for placement of the flammable storage locker within easy reach. The safety cabinets are designed to protect flammable liquids for a period of up to 10-minutes giving employees time to exit in case of fire.
