Hazardous Material Storage Buildings from Global Finishing Solutions® (GFS) — sometimes referred to as “Paint Kitchens” — provide a safe, code compliant environment for storing large amounts of paint and other chemicals. They also double as a safe area for mixing and pumping paint.
Precision engineered and manufactured with durable materials, GFS Hazardous Material Storage Buildings are portable and designed for
indoor or outdoor applications.
Hazardous Material Storage Buildings are required for manufacturers and businesses that need to safely store large amounts of paint or other hazardous materials.
