of staff and the facility. For example, flammable goods such as ethanol would
be stored in this area. Special storage conditions, such as flame-proof
cabinets, are used here.
Some warehouses have a locked area for restricted goods, such as poisons
and drugs of addiction. This area is restricted to specifically authorized staff.
A separate area for isolating faulty or recalled goods, ensuring that they are
not issued or sold by mistake.
A "reject" area reserved for rejected batches.
The coolroom is usually operated at 2°C - 8°C so temperature-sensitive
materials (e.g. vitamins) do not deteriorate.
It is important to regularly check that the coolroom temperature is within
normal operating ranges. The coolroom usually has a quarantine and a
released area.
The sampling booth is the first place starting chemicals are opened. To protect

Pay particular attention to the air control systems, gowning and safe handling
of chemicals in this area.

for use.
