Aerosol Cages
Secure and Compliant Storage for Aerosols and Volatile Chemicals
Aerosols and volatile chemicals present unique storage challenges for warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial facilities. Spray cans, filled with pressurized propellants, and volatile chemical containers require specialized storage to prevent accidents and ensure compliance with safety regulations.
Regulatory Compliance and Safety Standards
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), under Standard 1910.126, defines aerosols as “a low-density gas liquefied under pressure, dispensed using kinetic energy.” Aerosols containing flammable propellants are classified as Category 1 flammable liquids. OSHA assumes most aerosol propellants are flammable, making proper storage essential.
During inspections, OSHA considers all aerosols and volatile chemicals as flammable, even in “incidental quantities.” Ensuring compliance with storage regulations not only avoids costly citations but also protects employees and facilities from potential hazards.
Why Use Aerosol Storage Cages?
Aerosol storage cages are specifically designed to contain and minimize risks associated with pressurized containers. In the event of an explosion, the wire mesh construction of the cage helps contain debris, preventing it from spreading and causing further damage—acting as a safety barrier against potentially catastrophic incidents.
Industries That May Require Aerosol Storage Cages:
- Industrial and manufacturing facilities
- Chemical storage and distribution centers
- Warehouses and shipping hubs
