Chemstore supplies hazardous material storage solutions for automotive manufacturers, dealerships, body shops and fleet maintenance operations across the UK. Automotive sites may store paints, thinners, adhesives, oils, cleaning solvents, flammable liquids and lithium-ion batteries. Chemstore provides fire-rated, bunded, ventilated and specialist battery storage systems designed to support DSEAR, COSHH and environmental requirements while fitting efficiently into workshops, production facilities and external storage areas.
The automotive sector relies on a broad and often hazardous range of substances across manufacturing, refinishing, servicing, and emerging electric vehicle operations. From high-volume production plants to independent workshops, safe chemical storage is essential to protect personnel, maintain productivity, and meet strict regulatory requirements.
Automotive facilities routinely store and handle:
Each category presents specific risks relating to fire, explosion, toxic exposure, environmental contamination, and regulatory non-compliance. In busy workshop and production environments, storage systems must not only meet safety legislation but also support efficient day-to-day operations without disrupting workflow.
Chemstore designs and supplies certified hazardous storage systems engineered for automotive manufacturing, servicing, and aftermarket environments. Our solutions are deployed across vehicle production facilities, franchised dealer networks, independent body shops, and fleet maintenance operations.
Our automotive storage solutions are designed to:
From compact workshop units to large external chemical stores for bulk flammable storage, our systems are configured to match your operational footprint and risk profile.
Effective chemical storage in automotive environments requires more than simple containment. Facilities must demonstrate structured risk management, clear labelling, controlled access, and documented inspection processes to satisfy insurers and regulators.
Chemstore storage systems support:
Robust construction, compliant signage, and engineered containment measures help reduce fire load, prevent cross-contamination, and safeguard both people and premises.
The growth of electric vehicle manufacturing and servicing introduces additional storage challenges, particularly around lithium-ion batteries, damaged battery quarantine, and high-voltage components.
Chemstore provides specialist battery storage and quarantine solutions designed to manage the unique fire and thermal risks associated with EV technologies, supporting safe handling across manufacturing plants, service centres, and fleet operations.
We support automotive clients throughout the full project lifecycle, including site assessment, specification development, manufacture, delivery, installation, and ongoing inspection and maintenance.
Whether you are a global vehicle manufacturer, a franchised dealership group, an independent repair centre, or a fleet maintenance provider, Chemstore delivers hazardous storage solutions that protect your workforce, safeguard your premises, and demonstrate your commitment to safety and environmental responsibility.
