Farm Chemical Sheds For Safety & Sustainability Compliance
Chemical sheds design for on-farm storage that meets safety and sustainability requirements.
Compliant on-farm chemical storage is important infrastructure for cropping enterprises to meet safety and ISCC sustainable grain requirements.
Safe & Compliant Farm Chemical Shed Designs
Action farm chemical shed designs have been developed to help you follow chemical manufacturer’s storage recommendations, meet chemical storage regulations and achieve sustainability certification.

- Configuration options include fully-enclosed storage areas and undercover sprayer bays.
- Must-have features include bunded concrete floors and ventilation options such as ridge vent and wall vents. Sliding doors or roller doors are used to provide airflow and clear access to the shed.
- Ensuring the shed is well illuminated is another consideration included in the ISCC grower self-assessment checklist. This can be achieved by installing hi-bay lighting to make tasks like mixing chemicals safer.
Remember, there are other compliance considerations that may not impact the shed design but will need to be addressed such as shed location.
Functional Spray Sheds & Chemical Storage Ideas
Customise your farm chemical shed to ensure that your storage is functional and suits your operational requirements as well as being safe and compliant.
Some ideas include:
- A cantilevered canopy for a covered outdoor mixing area or incorporating a drive-through sprayer section.
- A concreted apron wash-down area with drainage points.
- Taking advantage of the height of your shed by installing shelving and pallet racking.
The On Farm Chemical Shed Guide is also a great starting point for best-practice ideas including sizes and project examples.
