Secure Diatomaceous Earth Storage: Protect Quality & Shelf Life
Diatomaceous Earth is a remarkably stable and versatile material, making it exceptionally well-suited for long-term storage within a robust warehouse environment. Choosing a warehouse facility provides optimal protection from the elements and offers a secure, dry location crucial for maintaining the material’s integrity. Diatomaceous earth, comprised of fossilized diatom shells, is naturally resistant to degradation and moisture, but proper storage practices are still vital. Store bulk quantities in large, breathable containers – ideally utilizing materials like polypropylene or high-density polyethylene – to prevent dust buildup and maintain consistent particle size. Ensure containers are tightly sealed to minimize exposure to dust and debris. Regular inspection of containers is recommended to detect any settling or damage. A warehouse’s inherent structure offers superior protection against potential impacts and physical strain, and its space allows for efficient inventory management and easy access. Strategic placement within the warehouse, away from direct sunlight and heavy foot traffic, further safeguards the product’s quality for extended storage periods, guaranteeing consistent performance when needed.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 150 square feet, 12ft x 12ft area, Height clearance: 12 feet. Allow for a 3ft access aisle around each pallet.
Storage Conditions: Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation. Avoid direct sunlight exposure to minimize potential degradation of the material. Maintain a clean and dust-free environment.
Special Handling: Diatomaceous Earth is a particulate material. It is considered mildly abrasive. Requires protective packaging such as heavy-duty bags or drums. Gloves and eye protection are recommended during handling. Avoid creating dust clouds.
Stacking/Shelving: Pallet storage is recommended. Utilize standard 48” high shelving units to maximize vertical space. Maximum stacking height of 4 pallets is advised to maintain stability. Ensure shelving is constructed of durable, corrosion-resistant materials.
Access Requirements: Loading dock should be 14ft wide and 24ft long to accommodate standard delivery trucks. Minimum door width of 10ft is required. A clearance of 8ft is needed for truck maneuvering within the storage area. Consider a ramp for easy loading/unloading.
Diatomaceous Earth benefits greatly from the robust storage solutions offered by cubework.
