Safety and Storage Requirements
Gas cylinders must be stored upright and secured against falling where required. Cylinder compatibility, ventilation, separation distances, fire precautions and signage must be assessed according to the gases being stored.
The bunded floor does not by itself provide protection against gas leaks. Confirm the installation’s suitability and any required certification before storing flammable, oxidising, toxic or other hazardous gases.
