    What is Chemical Warehousing?


    Chemical warehousing is the specialist storage for hazardous and difficult-to-handle products that cannot simply be dealt with by untrained staff. Chemicals, solvent kits, certain inks, paints, flammable liquids, and other combustible materials all require careful handling and storage conditions, along with compliance with regulations, from the moment they arrive to the moment they leave.

    Key benefits:

    • Store and transport hazardous materials safely in a secure, monitored facility
    • Rely on ADR-qualified staff who understand the specific requirements of the chemical industry
    • Reduce the risk and liability of managing specialist storage and toxic chemicals in-house
    • Integrate storage with hazchem distribution for a seamless end-to-end solution

    Getting chemical warehousing and transport wrong can carry serious consequences – for your business, your staff and your legal standing. Getting it right with a trusted partner like John K. Philips gives you one less thing to worry about.
