Practical, platform-safe guidance from Service Gazmi for teams that handle cylinders day-to-day.
Safe storage is not just “best practice”—it protects people, equipment, and the environment. Below is a concise, field-ready guide you can share with your team or display in your storage area.
Core Storage Principles
- Cool, dry, shaded. Store away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and weather exposure.
- Upright & secured. Cylinders should stand vertically and be restrained with chains or straps.
- Ventilated space. Choose a well-ventilated area; avoid small, enclosed rooms.
- Separated from hazards. Keep clear of flammable liquids, oils, and reactive chemicals.
- Labels & valves. Keep labels legible; use protective caps when not in use and check for damage or leaks.
