FAQs

What are Class 3 dangerous goods?

Class 3 dangerous goods are flammable liquids, including fuels, solvents and alcohols. They can ignite at low temperatures. If spilled, the fire spreads quickly and can put people and property at risk. To prevent this, they should be sealed in proper containers and kept inside cabinets or cages made for flammables. Correct storage lowers the chance of ignition and improves safety on site.

Why do flammable liquids require specialised storage?

Flammable liquids give off vapours, and those vapours can ignite with just a spark or a bit of heat. Storing them on normal shelving or in containers that aren’t made for them makes an accident far more likely. Cabinets and outdoor storage units built for Class 3 goods are designed to contain spills, reduce vapour build-up and even hold a fire if one starts. These aren’t optional extras. They’re important for safety and also for staying compliant with the rules.

Are Containit’s Class 3 cabinets compliant with Australian Standards?

Yes, Containit’s Class 3 cabinets are built in line with Australian Standards. That includes AS 1940, the standard that sets out requirements for storing flammable liquids. The cabinets are built from heavy-duty steel, fitted with self-closing doors and designed with integrated spill containment. These features allow workplaces to manage flammables safely while remaining compliant.

Can I store Class 3 flammable liquids with Class 8 corrosives?

No. Flammables and corrosives must be stored separately. If they mix, you can get a reaction, toxic gases or a fire. Keep them apart with distance or use separate cabinets. It is a simple rule that prevents serious incidents.

Where should I position Class 3 cabinets?

Class 3 cabinets or flammable liquid cabinets belong in well-ventilated areas, clear of sparks or heat. They should stand on flat ground and be fixed in place if there’s any chance of shifting. Staff must be able to access them without blocking escape routes. In most cases, the site risk assessment points out the best location.
