[labnetwork] Nanostrip Storage Container

[Robert Hower]

Because it can build up pressurized gas, it is shipped with a pressure
release cap. The cap can leak and nanostrip will attack the paper labels.
If enough gets out it could attack the box it is shipped in. Make sure that
it does not sit on the loading dock and get warm. Our driver drops our
chemicals off first so we usually don't have this issue. If it sits on the
hot truck for a long period, you can get leaking.
