Do pallets change my warehouse fire risk?
Pallet storage belongs in the premises fire-risk assessment. Material, quantity, storage layout and the complete goods arrangement matter. Confirm the proposed change with the responsible fire-safety person and insurer; a generic material description does not establish acceptance.
What to check next
- Review idle and loaded pallet storage, escape routes and the proposed layout.
- Request evidence for any claimed fire approval of the exact product.
