Avoid Injury With Proper Flammable Paint Storage Techniques

Many industries use flammable paints as part of their manufacturing processes. Storing these items present certain risks, such as fire or injury. When paint catches fire, it quickly turns into an inferno as container after container ignites, often accompanied by thick black smoke and explosions. Additionally, flammable paints may contain hazardous solvents. As it burns, it releases hazardous fumes that can endanger lives and cause extensive property and environmental damage. Because of the inherent dangers, flammable paints should be stored inside a flammable paint storage locker and handled with care. It’s also important to note the fire risks of paint waste. It is often more flammable than the virgin paint itself. When manufacturers need to change the color or type of paint in a painting booth, the system must be cleaned and flushed. Solvent pumped through the pipes cleans out the old paint. Always store paint waste in the same conditions as virgin paint until it is removed for recycling or disposal.
