Features
Hazardous Floor Chests from QMP – Safe Storage for Hazardous Substances
Total Locker Service supplies robust Hazardous Floor Chests from QMP, specifically designed for the secure storage of hazardous substances in industrial and commercial environments. Manufactured in the UK, these floor chests are built to comply with COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) regulations, helping you store dangerous materials safely and responsibly.
Constructed from heavy-duty steel and finished in a high-visibility yellow powder coating, QMP’s hazardous chests offer a reliable solution for storing flammable, toxic, corrosive, or chemical substances. These units are ideal for use in workshops, factories, laboratories, maintenance areas, and construction sites.
Whether you’re storing paint tins, fuel cans, cleaning agents, or corrosive compounds, these floor chests are designed to protect workers and facilities from potential leaks, contamination, or fire risks.
Built to COSHH Standards
All QMP hazardous floor chests are designed to comply with the COSHH regulations, which require employers to control substances that are hazardous to health. These chests include features that reduce the risk of chemical exposure, spills, or unauthorised access.
With leak-proof sump bases, lockable lids, and clear hazard labelling, these chests ensure you meet your legal obligations while promoting workplace safety and operational efficiency.
Heavy-Duty Construction
Each hazardous floor chest is manufactured from robust 1.2mm thick mild steel and reinforced to withstand the daily rigours of industrial use. The construction includes a fully welded body and lid for enhanced structural integrity.
The bright yellow epoxy powder coating not only provides excellent corrosion resistance but also ensures the unit is highly visible and instantly recognisable as hazardous storage.
Safety and Spill Containment
One of the key safety features of the QMP hazardous floor chest is its integral liquid-tight sump base, which collects leaks or spills from stored containers. This sump prevents hazardous substances from contaminating floors, drains, or work surfaces, significantly reducing environmental and health risks.
In addition, each unit includes a warning label with the standard hazard symbol to clearly indicate that dangerous substances are stored inside.
Lockable and Secure
The floor chest lid is fitted with a strong hasp and staple lock compatible with standard padlocks (not included), allowing you to secure hazardous materials against unauthorised access. This is essential for shared environments or locations where hazardous substances must be kept out of reach of untrained personnel.
Optional keyed locking systems or security upgrades can be supplied upon request.

QMP hazardous floor chests are available in a range of sizes to suit various storage needs:
- Small – 400mm (H) x 915mm (W) x 457mm (D)
- Medium – 510mm (H) x 915mm (W) x 457mm (D)

- Manufacturing and engineering plants

- Vehicle workshops and garages

Wherever safety and compliance matter, this floor chest provides a secure, accessible, and regulation-friendly solution.
