October 2025 – Auckland, New Zealand.
In response to rising safety and compliance demands within New Zealand’s laboratory sector, a leading environmental testing and chemical analysis company has confirmed the purchase of Laboratory Hazardous Materials Safety Cabinets from SUPER CO., LTD.
The shipment, now en route to Auckland, marks another milestone in enhancing laboratory safety and chemical storage management in accordance with New Zealand’s HSNO regulations and international OSHA/NFPA standards.

Addressing Laboratory Pain Points: From Fire Risk to Compliance

Laboratories across New Zealand face increasing pressure to comply with Hazardous Substances and New Organisms (HSNO) Act requirements, while also ensuring daily operational safety for staff working with flammable, corrosive, and toxic chemicals.
Before upgrading, the client encountered several persistent issues:

• Inadequate protection: Existing storage units lacked certified fire and corrosion resistance.

• Non-compliance risks: The cabinets did not fully align with New Zealand’s hazardous substance storage regulations.

• Operational inefficiency: Poor internal organization led to cross-contamination and increased maintenance needs.

To resolve these pain points, the company selected SUPER’s certified Laboratory Hazardous Materials Safety Cabinets, designed to meet both local and international safety codes.

Engineered Safety for Hazardous Chemical Storage

Each cabinet is built with double-wall cold-rolled steel construction and epoxy-coated interiors, ensuring long-term resistance to chemical fumes, spills, and corrosion.
Key design features include:

• Three-point locking system and self-closing doors for vapor control and fire containment.

• Adjustable vent ports to connect to laboratory exhaust systems, preventing fume buildup.

• Spill containment sump at the base to capture accidental leaks.

• Safety color coding and hazard labeling — yellow for flammable liquids, blue for corrosives, red for toxic materials — for quick visual identification and compliance management.

All units are manufactured under OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106, NFPA 30, and EN14470-1 standards, while fully compatible with New Zealand’s WorkSafe hazardous substance storage requirements.

Customer-Centered Customization and Confidence

SUPER’s engineering team worked closely with the New Zealand client to design customized configurations that accommodate a mix of flammable solvents, acids, and reagent samples used in environmental testing.
The cabinets’ modular structure and reinforced shelving allow the laboratory to efficiently separate different chemical categories, improving both safety and workflow.

A spokesperson from the client’s Health & Safety Department commented:

“Chemical safety is critical to our laboratory operations. These cabinets meet both local HSNO requirements and international fire standards, giving our team complete confidence in our daily work and emergency preparedness.”
