With nearly three decades experience in the design manufacture and implementation of safety storage systems for hazardous materials, We know from speaking to our clients that the most prevalent risk has always been in the storage of flammables. Whether it be the HSE, EPA or even company insurers carrying out assessments on your site, it will always be the risk of fire that is given the highest priority. The Firevault enables you to obtain the highest level of safety and protection when storing flammable materials. Whether you’re looking for a large Firevault for the storage of drums and IBCs, a walk-in Firevault or you need something manufactured specifically to meet your needs, Chemstore can fulfil your requirements.
Firevault units can be manufactured to suit bespoke site-specific requirements.
We can, therefore, offer a complete customisation service at no additional cost. Options include:
“After consulting with various suppliers, Chemstore was the only company who could provide us with the required solution” Mat Mitchell Technology Supplies Ltd. – Mat Spoke to us after receiving a bespoke Firevault (Fire Rated Stores) on site in the UK.
FireVault units are fully modular and can be easily relocated by forkturck or Hi-AB Crane
All Firevault units are delivered to site fully assembled and ready for immediate use with no site work required.

Gasvault – Solutions for Compressed Gases – Gas Cylinder Stores
Chemstore’s range of solutions for Gas Cylinder Storage
The range Gas Cylinder Stores are specifically designed to provide a safe, ergonomic range of compliant storage solutions for gas cylinders.
Over two billion Lithium-ion cells are produced every year, but significant safety concerns surround battery storage, quarantine procedures, transport/ disposal of damaged batteries and thermal runaway. During a thermal runaway, the high heat created by the failing cell can develop to the next cell, causing it also to become thermally unstable. A battery pack can be destroyed within minutes or last for hours as each cell runs away. An irreversible thermal event in a lithium-ion battery can be initiated in several ways, by spontaneous internal or external short-circuit, overcharging, external heating or fire or even mechanical abuse. Electrovault provides an ideal battery storage solution.
A thermal runaway releases hydrogen fluoride HF, phosphorus pentafluoride (PF5) and phosphoryl fluoride (POF3), studies have shown that using water as a fire suppressant may also increase the formation of HF.
Our Electrovault storage units are made to comply with RC61 guidelines. We can tailor your Electrovault battery storage solution to suit your specification, whether that is:

Lithium-Ion Battery Cabinet
Lithium Batteries should be treated as a Hazardous Material
In Active Storage, lithium-ion batteries or battery packs are charged in a cabinet.
When charging lithium-ion batteries heat can be generated, if this heat output is too high, a fire may occur, for example, if the lithium-ion battery, charger or the cable is defective. Another major risk factor is the thermal runaway of lithium-ion batteries. To combat this major issue we introduced a lithium-ion storage cabinet.
You can rest easy in the knowledge that you can charge your batteries overnight and they will be protected by a 90-minute fire-rated cabinet that has smoke detection and fire suppression built-in.
Certified to EN14470-1 & EN1363-1

Temperature Controlled Stores – Thermovault
A very common problem our clients have is maintaining valuable product and process chemicals within the correct temperature range for optimum safety and performance. This is where our Thermovault, a completely temperature controlled store, provides the solution.
Valuable time is lost in waiting for chemicals to be heated to performance temperatures and also product is fouled by exposure to incorrect temperatures.
Thermovault stores are stand-alone relocatable, insulated and temperature controlled stores which are designed to provide secure, controlled storage for temperature sensitive materials. We offer a full range of sizes together with heating and cooling options. Depending on the hazardous material being stored by reviewing the SDS sheet Chemstore can provide the required storage temperature to alleviate any hazard presented by storing materials on site.
We also offer drum & IBC’s enclosures designed to heat the contents of standard drums and IBC’s from freezing or ambient to your required processing temperature.
