I keep one of the worlds most expensive liquids in my unit…

[Chris Wool]

well does your ins co know about all this flammable stuff.

the ins co that was saying the other day how understanding they are about our trade, they did not like the idea of stuff that would go bang.

although we came to an agreement at first they wanted it all in 200ml bottles. why when you buy it in 5lt bottles.

i have an explosive cabinet… but do the staff keep that locked and keep them in there? hmm

[Jill Marie Welsh]

Mine’s in a metal cabinet too.
As per insurance regulations.

Same here, chemicals are kept in a proper inflammables locker which is kept locked. Like Jill this was what the insurance company wanted.
