Griffith Foods Ignitable Liquids  Storage

Currently, Griffith Foods stores ignitable liquids (150 pallet positions) in a 4000 square foot area inside their general warehouse at the Alsip site. Their property insurer, FM Global, advises that ignitable liquids should be stored in a segregated area separate from general warehouse storage. These ignitable liquids are stored in a variety of different container types.  Therefore, Griffith Foods is interested in relocating their ignitable liquid storage, for up to 300 pallet positions, in a new, separated area to the west of the current warehouse.  This will also free up the current space inside the warehouse for a planned mixing area expansion.

Features:
  • Exterior deluge fire suppression system
  • Quick-detection/quick-response alarm system
  • In-slab containment wells
  • 3 and 2 Hour rated construction
  • Rated perimeter construction to allow for future addition(s)
