QMP Mobile Hazardous Substance Cupboards

A mobile hazardous substance cupboard is a lockable chemical storage cabinet mounted on a mobile base. It allows compatible substances to be stored securely and repositioned between suitable indoor work areas when necessary.

Typical locations include laboratories, science preparation rooms, schools, engineering workshops, maintenance departments, manufacturing sites and industrial facilities where chemical containers may be needed at more than one workstation.

The QMP mobile hazardous substance cupboard range includes two models:

• 840 × 900 × 460 mm
• 1040 × 900 × 460 mm

Both models are supplied with one adjustable spill-retaining shelf. Check the external dimensions, container sizes, loaded weight and movement route before ordering.

A mobile cupboard can be repositioned within a suitable workplace, while a fixed hazardous cupboard remains in one designated storage location. Mobile units are useful where compatible chemicals need to be taken closer to different work areas.

For permanent storage, compare our fixed hazardous substance cupboards .

QMP mobile hazardous substance cupboards use snag-free handles with two-point locking. Access should remain limited to trained and authorised personnel according to the workplace chemical-storage procedure.

Yes. The cupboards include an adjustable galvanised spill-retaining shelf and an integral liquid-tight sump. These features help restrict minor leaks within the cabinet but do not replace compatible containers, routine inspections or a documented spill-response procedure.

Only substances confirmed as compatible through their safety data sheets and the workplace risk assessment should be stored together. Acids, alkalis, oxidising agents, flammable liquids and other incompatible substances may require separate cabinets.

For corrosive substances, see our acid and alkali cupboards.

Do not assume that a general hazardous substance cupboard is suitable for flammable liquids. Check the product safety data sheet, quantity, container type and workplace risk assessment. Flammable products may require a separately specified cabinet.

No. A mobile hazardous cupboard can support storage, access-control and spill-management measures identified through a COSHH assessment, but the cupboard alone does not establish compliance.

Employers must also assess exposure risks, check chemical compatibility, maintain suitable procedures and provide appropriate information and training.

Before moving the cupboard, ensure every container is closed, secure and suitable for transport. Check the floor condition, doorways, ramps, thresholds and total loaded weight. Move the unit slowly and position it on a stable, level surface.

A general hazardous substance cupboard should not be described as fire resistant unless it has a stated, tested fire-resistance rating. A reaction-to-fire classification does not provide a tested period of protection for the cupboard contents.
