Twelve-thousand square meters of bunded, ventilated, fire-suppressed storage outside Riyadh — segregated by UN class, audited daily, dispatched by our own hazmat-certified fleet. From a single 200 L drum to a dedicated bay.
Most third-party warehouses learn chemistry by accident. Ours was designed for it — a separate building behind its own fire wall, plumbed for foam, ventilated for solvents, floored with epoxy that won't pit when an acid drum tips. The result is the kind of facility a compliance officer can sleep with their phone off.BSX Operations · Riyadh, since 2014
The chemical warehouse stands 30 m clear of every other BSX operation. If something goes wrong here, it doesn't take anything else with it.
Seven physically separated zones, each with its own air handling, drainage and suppression — sized to Civil Defense + HCIS compatibility rules.
Every consignment is matched to its Safety Data Sheet before the truck arrives. If it doesn't compatibility-check, the booking doesn't open.
A real-time WMS keeps the audit trail. Three-year retention. ISO-friendly exports. Inspectors get answers in seconds, not days.
Tap any zone in the plan to see what lives there. Aisle widths, segregation distances, ventilation and suppression are all built to the rule, not interpolated from it.
The HCIS compatibility matrix in one screen. Green is fine. Amber needs distance. Black means a fire wall. There's no fourth option called “use your judgment.”
The two classes may share a bay subject to normal aisle and bund rules.
Same building, but separated by a defined distance, bund or fire-rated partition.
Different building or a Class-A fire wall. We design these as separate boxes from day one.
Matrix is a working summary — actual segregation distances follow Saudi Civil Defense + HCIS + UN ADR. SDS-specific deviations are handled case-by-case.
A chemical warehouse only works if it works the same way every day. Below is the actual operations schedule — the bits you'd see on a walk-through, in order.
Logbook signed, last LEL reading recorded, any open work permits closed. Day shift starts with a known-good baseline.
ADR-certified drivers, placarded vehicles, e-CMR signed, route-optimised to avoid schools and tunnels. The trucks leave first because the city wakes up second.
Every consignment was pre-cleared yesterday — but it still gets a fresh label, placard and seal check today. If the seal looks tampered with, the consignment doesn't enter the building.
Cycle counts because the WMS doesn't always trust the scanner. The afternoon is when we walk the racks, weigh the IBCs against the booked volume, and reconcile every variance before close.
The packet they get on arrival: facility licence, fire system test log, SDS register, compatibility matrix and training records — printed and live in the WMS portal.
The building runs cooler at night, the LEL trace flattens, the gas cage is quiet. A two-person fire watch logs a round every 120 minutes — door-by-door, sensor-by-sensor, signed off.
If your supply chain has a UN number on it, there's a customer like you already storing here.

We're not “compliant with” — we're approved by, audited annually, and the licence is on the wall. Our compatibility matrix tracks HCIS guidance, our drivers carry ADR. When your auditor asks a yes/no question, we give a yes/no answer.
Storage, hazmat transport, customs handover and last-mile under one roof, one contract, one accountable team. Fewer hand-offs, fewer points of failure, fewer phone numbers.
Every drum has an SDS on file, every movement a timestamp, every release a signature. Pull a 3-year history in two clicks. The audit doesn't surprise us because the audit is already running.
Send the SDS, the volume, and the destination. We'll come back with a compliant storage + transport quote, and a slot you can plan against.

Ask a questionClasses 2 (excl. 2.3 toxic gas without prior arrangement), 3, 4 (4.1, 4.2, 4.3), 5.1, 6.1, 8 and 9. Class 1 (explosives) and Class 7 (radioactive) are not handled. Class 2.3 and 5.2 are case-by-case with additional permits.
Yes — we contract from 1 m² of shelf. Most chemical customers start with a few pallets and scale into a dedicated bay over the first quarter as confidence builds.
Both, on the same contract. BSX runs a hazmat-certified fleet (ADR-spec, hazmat-trained drivers) for KSA-wide distribution and GCC long-haul. One operator, one bill of lading, one accountable team end-to-end.
Three things: (1) the Safety Data Sheet for every SKU, (2) the UN number + hazard class, and (3) the expected volume and inbound schedule. With those, we pre-clear the booking, pre-assign a bay, and you skip the loading-dock argument on arrival.
Yes — and we encourage it. Walkthroughs are scheduled the same week. Inspectors get a packet on arrival: facility license, fire system test logs, SDS register, training records, and our compatibility matrix.
A customer dashboard with real-time stock by SKU, lot, batch and expiry. A REST API for ERP / marketplace sync. Document trail — PODs, gate slips, SDS revisions — downloadable in the portal, retained 3 years minimum.
