Pesticide & Agrochemical Cabinets: Specialist Storage Solutions for Hazardous Substances. Expert-Grade Chemical Storage for Agricultural and Industrial Applications. When storing potent agrochemicals and pesticides, compliance isn't merely a box-ticking exercise - it's fundamental to workplace safety and environmental protection. At RackZone, we understand the complex regulatory framework governing hazardous substance storage and the practical challenges faced by agricultural and industrial professionals daily.
Engineered for Compliance and Practicality
Our premium pesticide storage cabinets are designed to address the stringent requirements of the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) and Control of Pesticides Regulations (COPR). Each cabinet delivers a comprehensive solution that balances regulatory compliance with practical functionality.
Critical Ventilation Systems
The perforated door design isn't merely an aesthetic choice - it's an engineered ventilation solution that maintains constant airflow, significantly reducing dangerous vapour build-up and minimising inhalation risks. This controlled ventilation system helps maintain chemical stability while protecting personnel.
Advanced Spill Containment Architecture
Chemical leakage presents both immediate safety hazards and potential environmental contamination. Our cabinets feature:
- Liquid-tight sumps engineered to contain significant spills
- Adjustable spill-retaining shelves with 50kg uniform distributed load (UDL) capacity
- Containment systems that meet or exceed all current UK regulatory requirements
Multi-Tier Security Implementation
Unauthorised access to restricted agrochemicals can have severe consequences. Our cabinets incorporate:
- Robust 2-point locking mechanisms with 'no-snag' handles for smooth operation
- Optional seven-lever security locks for enhanced protection
- Fully welded steel construction with concealed heavy-duty hinges resistant to forced entry attempts
Technical Specifications
We offer two primary configurations to accommodate different spatial requirements and storage volumes:
Standard Width Model (PACBD181246)
- Dimensions: 1800h × 1200w × 460d mm
- Three adjustable shelves with spill retention
- Full-height liquid-tight sump
- EN 13501-1 fire classification certified
Compact Width Model
- Dimensions: 1800h × 900w × 460d mm
- Three adjustable shelves with an identical load rating
- All security and ventilation features of the standard model
- Identical certification and compliance standards
Both models feature our premium powder-coated red finish incorporating Germ Guard Active Technology. This antimicrobial surface treatment inhibits bacterial growth and reduces cross-contamination risks in high-traffic agricultural environments.
Addressing Practical Challenges
- Accessible shelf height configuration allows clear visibility of contents to minimise handling
- Robust construction withstands the demanding conditions of agricultural environments
- Standardised external dimensions enable straightforward installation planning
Regulatory Confidence
The EN 13501-1 fire classification provides documented evidence of your commitment to safety standards - an increasingly important consideration during insurance assessments and compliance inspections.
Beyond Standard Options
For specialised requirements, we can discuss:
- Wall-mounted solutions for space-constrained environments
- Mobile storage units for field operations
- Custom internal configurations for specific container types
- Enhanced security options for highly regulated substances

Frequently Asked Questions
What regulations govern pesticide and agrochemical storage in the UK?
Pesticide and agrochemical storage in the UK is primarily governed by the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations and the Control of Pesticides Regulations (COPR). These regulations require secure, ventilated storage with appropriate spill containment. For agricultural settings, additional guidance is provided by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and the Environment Agency, which mandate segregation of incompatible chemicals and recommend secondary containment systems for leakage prevention. Our cabinets are designed to meet or exceed all current UK regulatory requirements.
How do RackZone pesticide cabinets prevent cross-contamination of stored chemicals?
Our pesticide storage cabinets incorporate several features to prevent cross-contamination. The spill-retaining shelves (50kg UDL) contain minor leaks at the source, while the liquid-tight sump prevents floor-level migration of spilt substances. The engineered ventilation system reduces vapour transfer between containers, and the Germ Guard Active Technology in our powder coating provides antimicrobial surface protection. For storing incompatible chemicals, we recommend separate cabinets or compartmentalised storage solutions, which our technical team can advise on based on your specific inventory.
What is the difference between standard hazardous substance cabinets and specialist pesticide cabinets?
Standard hazardous substance cabinets typically provide general chemical storage but lack the specific features required for agricultural chemicals. Our specialist pesticide cabinets feature enhanced ventilation through perforated doors to manage the often volatile nature of concentrated agrochemicals, higher capacity spill containment systems designed for larger volume containers common in agricultural applications, and security features designed to meet agricultural insurance requirements. Additionally, our pesticide cabinets are tested to EN 13501-1 fire classification standards, providing documented evidence of compliance for farm safety inspections.
