Custom Hazardous Material Storage: Delivering Safety and Compliance for a National Defense Project
When a long-time client embarked on a critical expansion project for their new plant, they faced a significant challenge: safely storing and handling highly flammable pretreatment chemicals while meeting stringent OSHA, EPA, NFPA, and international building codes. With a national defense contract at stake, they needed a partner who could deliver a customized, compliant solution that prioritized safety, durability, and efficiency. Turning to DENIOS for our expertise in hazardous material storage, we provided a tailored, movable building solution designed to meet their unique needs, simplify compliance, and ensure operational peace of mind.
Tailored Hazardous Material Storage for a National Defense Contract
Client Overview
A long-term chemical industry client was expanding its operations with a new plant. As part of a more significant national defense contract, they required a reliable, code-compliant solution to store pretreatment chemicals and highly flammable substances and to facilitate paint pumping operations. With temperature-sensitive materials and strict safety regulations, their needs called for a customized hazardous material storage building that met OSHA, EPA, and NFPA standards.
Challenge
The client initially considered constructing their facility but decided on a DENIOS solution for its portability, safety, and compliance with relevant codes. Their priorities included:
A storage and pumping room tailored for flammable chemicals.
Temperature-controlled walk-in enclosures and rack-mounted storage.
Compliance with OSHA, EPA, and NFPA regulations.
A tight timeline to align with their plant expansion.
Keeping the building close to its main structure would increase efficiency.
Additionally, the building needed to accommodate state and local certification requirements.
How DENIOS Delivered a Customized Hazardous Material Storage Building
DENIOS delivered a customized hazardous material storage building to meet the client’s needs. Key features included:
Increased Size: Initially quoted for a smaller building, the client required a 50-foot structure to meet operational demands.
Durability: Severe-duty paint with multiple layers was used to withstand harsh conditions.
Safety Enhancements: Explosion-proof AC and heaters ensured safe temperature control. Fans ran continuously to maintain airflow, and the roof sloped for efficient water runoff.
Custom Modifications: Hinged doors ensure superior temperature regulation compared to roll-up doors, and a 4-hour fire-rated building allows close placement to existing structures without extra setbacks.
