Safe chemical storage strategy with Hacklin
What’s at the heart of chemical storage safety? In chemical logistics, safety isn’t just a checklist – it’s a mindset. We believe true safety comes from mastering the fundamentals:
▫️Know your chemicals – Understand the risks
▫️Store smart – Segregate incompatible substances
▫️Control the environment – Temperature, ventilation, humidity
▫️Contain spills – Be ready before they happen
▫️Label clearly – No room for confusion
▫️Train your team – Knowledge saves lives
▫️Practice emergencies – Drills make the difference
As a UPS (Upper Tier Seveso) facility, we recently participated in a major accident simulation organized by Kymenlaakso Rescue Department, Port of HaminaKotka Ltd, and local authorities.
A realistic scenario involving a ruptured IBC container during unloading at Hacklin Hamiko’s chemical warehouse in Hamina tested our response to a hazardous chemical leak. The drill included containment, communication with authorities, and first aid procedures.
Such exercises are a vital part of our safety culture and regulatory compliance.
🚨Safety is not an option — it’s a daily commitment. A heartfelt thank you to all partners, authorities, and our team for their dedication and cooperation. Together, we move forward — safely and responsibly.
