Safe/ Strong Box/Medicine Chest

"La caja fuerte y bastante manejo de.." is strange Spanish. It normally means 'safe' or'strong box' for safekeeping of items to prevent loss or theft, but here it may be a medecine chest if it contains items used to combat industrial illnesses.
Sorry I can't be more helpful- your piece just doesn't ring true when you read through it.
