ALL CHEMICALS NEED PROPER STORAGE.
When evaluating your hazmat storage needs, consider these flammable
a n d c o m b u s t i b l e c l a s s i f i c a t i o n s *:
FLAMMABLES
COMBUSTIBLES
A flammable liquid is any liquid having a flashpoint below 100° F (38°C).
However, the exception to this is any mixture having components with
flashpoints of 100° F, or higher, when such components make up at least 99%
of the mixture’s volume. The flashpoint is the lowest temperature at which a
flammable liquid will give off enough vapor to ignite briefly when exposed to a
flame.
A combustible is a liquid having a flashpoint of at least 100° F (37.8° C).
Flammable liquids are referred to as Class 1 Liquids. Class 1 Liquids are
separated into the following three categories:
C L A S S 1 A - Liquids that have flashpoints below 73° F (22.8° C), and a
boiling point below 100° F (37.8° C). Examples of this class are Ethyl Ether and
Pentane.
C L A S S 1 B - Liquids that have flashpoints below 73° F (22.8° C), and a
boiling point of at least 100° F (37.8° C). Examples of this class are Acetone,
Gasoline and MEK
C L A S S 1 C - Liquids that have flashpoints above 73° F (22.8° C),and below
100° F (37.8° C). Examples of this are Turpentine and Xylene.
*NFPA 30

Combustibles are divided into two classes:
C L A S S I I C O M B U S T I B L E S - Liquids that have a flashpoint of at
least 100° F (37.8° C), and below 140° F (60° C). However, the exception to this
is any mixture having components with flashpoints of 200° F (93.3° C), when
such components make up at least 99% of the total volume of the mixture.
Examples of this class are Kerosene and most Oil Based Paints.
C L A S S I I I C O M B U S T I B L E S - Liquids with flashpoints of at least
140° F (60° C).

Fire ratings may be required depending on the location of
your chemical storage building in relation to surrounding
structures. The Non Fire-Rated buildings in the CHEMLOC ,
DRUMLOC and TURFLOC lines are compliant when you
have the ability to locate your storage more than 50 feet away
from other structures.
TM
The 2-hour fire-rated line, FIRELOC , is designed to
be placed within 10 to 30 feet of existing structures and/or
property setbacks.
TM
Our 4-hour fire-rated SUPERLOC buildings can be located
within 10’, or even within existing structures.

So what is the difference in the building itself that makes it
a fire rated building?
The answer is in the wall construction. The diagrams to the right
illustrate the fire-rated designs we manufacture.

Exterior: Two layers of dr ywall,
covered by heav y Galvanneal
exterior sheeting.
Insulation: Standard.

Class III combustibles are divided into these two subcategories:
Class IIIA Combustibles - Liquids having a flashpoint of at least 140° F (60°
C), and below 200° F (93.3° C). However, the exception to this is any mixture
having components with flashpoints of 200° F (93.3° C) or higher, when such
components make up at least 99% of the total volume of the mixture.
An example of this is Mineral Spirits.
