Military & Government Storage Applications

A soldier refuels his military vehicle on the way to a military chemical storage building.
U.S. Chemical Storage specializes in code-compliant chemical storage buildings customized for government entities and unique military mission-critical requirements. We engineer both fire-rated and non fire-rated chemical storage buildings to protect against injuries or the loss of mission-critical equipment. Our team designs custom, prefabricated military chemical storage buildings to meet NFPA, EPA, and OSHA requirements so that your troops can always be prepared.

  • Chemical Storage
  • Lithium Battery Charging or Storage
  • Drop Over Equipment Buildings
  • Explosive Magazines
  • Modular Buildings
At U.S. Chemical Storage, we understand that many government and military storage applications require more than a simple ISO container. Our team has the expertise and resources to provide a Nationally Recognized Testing Lab (NRTL) solution. Our line of prefabricated storage solutions can be customized to meet your specific usage needs, and our experts understand what it takes to remain compliant when storing chemicals, flammables and combustibles, and explosive components.

Prefabricated Chemical Storage Buildings vs. On-Site Construction

Prefabricated chemical storage buildings are an affordable alternative to traditional construction. There’s no need to wait 6 to 18 months for an expensive design-build construction project. U.S. Chemical Storage can provide a code-compliant prefabricated building, customized to your specific requirements, within 3 months; and onsite installation can be completed in 1 week or less. All buildings can easily be relocated and are transportable as needed.

Options like modular and drop-over buildings ensure no job is too large or too small. All chemical storage buildings for the military are FM Approved and come with 15-year structural warranty.

All buildings are proudly made in the USA of U.S. and imported parts.

Features and Benefits of Military Chemical Storage

  • Cost-effective code compliance
  • Deliverable within 3-months
  • 100% customizable
  • Easily transportable
  • Modular solutions available for larger footprints
  • Multi-room units available for storage and charging
  • EPA compliant, leak-tested spill containment sump
  • 2-part epoxy coating for UV and weathering protection
  • FM-Approved
  • 15-year structural warranty
  • Durable, hand-welded steel construction ensures structural integrity

Military Lithium Battery Storage for Mission Readiness

New equipment options come with new hazards that require unique safety practices. Military bases cannot afford injuries and the loss of mission-critical equipment. Comms, robots, drones, vehicles, and more are utilizing the ease of rechargeable lithium batteries to make missions safer for our troops.

A lithium battery explosion at a military base recently destroyed $70,000 of batteries. Smoke emitted while charging a small drone lithium battery set off a water sprinkler system. Unfortunately, that set off a different reaction, and the batteries exploded. These fires burn extremely hot and can reignite hours, days, or even weeks after an event.

Never compromise convenience for personnel or operational safety, especially when the mission must not fail. Intermodal shipping containers (aka ISO containers or Conex boxes) for hazmat storage do not qualify as a compliant storage solution. When storing chemicals, the military requires EPA and NFPA compliance. Lithium batteries have no current code regulations but storage and charging strategies for them are being scrutinized for their inherent dangers. We have built many lithium battery buildings for military locations like yours with the features you need. Let us share what we know for the fire and life safety of this increasingly crucial source of power.


Explosive Storage Magazines for Military & Government Use

To maintain mission preparedness, the military uses ammunitions and explosives in training. Law enforcement must use live detonators and bombs when training their K9 officers. Because of the inherent danger, in the United States, the federal government requires storage magazines for all high and low explosives and blasting agents. DynaLoc explosive storage magazines from U.S. Chemical Storage provide safe storage solutions for high and low explosives. All prefabricated magazines meet and exceed ATF and DOD requirements.

All Dynaloc explosive magazines come in standard size models, though custom sizes are also available.

DynaLoc explosive magazines are available for the following:

  • Type 2 Outdoor Magazines – portable outdoor storage of high explosives
  • Type 2 Indoor Magazines – indoor storage of up to 50 lbs. of high explosives
  • Type 3 Day Boxes – temporary, attended storage during transfer of explosives to and from job sites
  • Type 4 Magazines – indoor or outdoor, long-term storage of low explosives

Features and Benefits

  • Safely transport and store explosives, ammunition, and blast agents
  • Cost-effective Code Compliance
  • Quick delivery
  • Customized sizes available
  • Lift rings and channels make moving easy
