Tailor-made solutions for industrial storage and material handling
Sall is the Justrite brand specialized in the design and production of safe and norms compliant solutions for hazardous substances.
We refer to hazardous substances as mixtures and materials (in solid, liquid or gaseous form) which have liable characteristics to pose a potential danger to the health and safety of people, of workplace contexts and the Environment.
Correct storage and management of these substances, in accordance with the applicable mandatory laws, is essential for the prevention of typical risks concerning these substances.
The ever-changing regulatory framework includes more and more hazard cases and hazardous substances, as well as laws, National and International regulations and often make it difficult to understand the measures that need to be taken for prevention and risk management: partly because of the unclear terminology and industrial sectors to which the laws apply.
The Sall Engineering Department and Safety Experts create tailor-made solutions for the storage of hazardous substances in compliance with the regulatory framework and paying particular attention to the type and characteristics of hazardous substances, so that each risk factor is managed properly .

POSSIBLE DANGERS OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES
Fires and explosions: flammables and oxidizing substances release toxic gases that can cause fires, explosions, secondary reactions and can pose a serious threat on the Environment
Environmental pollution: liquids and pollutants such as oils, paints, pesticides, chemicals (to name a few) can cause a serious Environmental damage when not managed and stored properly. For example, in the event of failure or rupture of the primary containers of such substances (e.g. accidental spills), it is mandatory to take the necessary preventive measures to stop soil pollution and groundwater.
Toxic vapour poisoning: gas production of certain dangerous substances poses at serious risk the people’s health. Such gases can form either spontaneously of following a chemical reaction (e.g the toxic gas generated by the reaction of bleach combined with ammonia). For the safety of your personnel it is therefore necessary to separately storage substances that are not compatible, providing also a correct system of forced ventilation for specific cases.
Skin burning: Acids and corrosive substances can pose a danger to people if they are dispersed in the environment, stored without utilizing adequate ventilation or not properly managed in general. The same gases emitted by certain acids, if inhaled, can burn the respiratory system as well as your eyes and membranes and thus lead to dramatic health consequences. In case of spills these corrosive liquids can cause severe skin burns.
To prevent these situations, it is therefore necessary to adopt safe storage solutions (Safety spill pallets for acids, ventilation systems adapted to the stored volume capacity) and to install safety showers and emergency eye washes.
