Since we provide benzoyl peroxide (BPO) solutions (CAS 94-36-0), we know how vital safe storage and transport are for this high-risk organic peroxide. Our BPO which comes as a 50% paste and 75% powder, is identified by the UN as UN3103 (liquid) and UN3104 (powder) and must always follow international safety rules. Further down, you’ll find important points and our know-how in keeping your information secure.
Storage Best Practices
The proper place for BPO is somewhere cool, dry, well-ventilated and not exposed to direct light or materials that might mix badly with BPO. Our buildings are carefully maintained at a proper temperature to make sure peroxides do not decompose. Be sure not to keep BPO next to combustibles, organic materials or oxidizers. Part of this is to organize documentation, create emergency response plans and train all staff on handling any oil spills.
Safe Transportation Protocols
All shipments of BPO are packed using UN-certified containers built for hazardous products. UN3103, for liquids, is sealed in safe drums or IBCs and UN3104, for powders, is stored using bags or containers that do not allow air in or out to avoid the risk of dust ignition. Together with providers who handle dangerous goods, we fit transport vehicles with fire suppression systems and spill kits. All package shipments provide the correct SDS sheets, commercial invoices and hazardous goods information which stops possible delays at customs.
Cost-Effective Solutions for Small Orders
LCL Innovation offers a solution for an industry issue: many trial orders or low-volume clients cannot afford the shipping cost of full-container loads for high-risk chemicals. We help customers cut down on logistics costs by making shared container shipments safer.
Our Commitment to Safety
Safety starts at Research and Development and lasts until our products are delivered to our retailers. Whenever we supply BPO for polymer, coating or road marking paint use, we guarantee that it passes our strict quality and safety tests.
