Here some guidelines for storing chemicals safely-Each shelf should have an anti-roll lip. Avoid storing chemicals on the floor (even temporarily) or extending into traffic aisles. Liquids should be stored in unbreakable or double-contained packaging, or the storage cabinet should have the capacity to hold the contents if the container breaks
