Chemical Spill Kits

If you work in a warehouse, factory, or an area where potentially hazardous chemicals are stored, then you will be aware of the many dangers to the workforce caused by spills and leaks. Therefore, it is crucial to keep our Chemical Spill Kits placed around stored chemicals to enable a fast response to any spill related accidents.

What is included in a Chemical Spill Kit?

Our spill kits consist of a plastic drum or wheelie bin filled with a variety of absorbent products such as absorbent pads and socks which will absorb the liquid quickly. The drums themselves are yellow in colour, which helps to make them highly visible and easily accessed in case of emergency. They also are highly mobile, so can quickly be moved to the area that they are required. Each spill kit features a label on the front, showing which fluids they are compatible with. These particular kits are suitable for chemicals, but we also do Oil Spill Kits, which are more appropriate for clearing up thicker spills, containing various types of oils and fuels.

Why use our Chemical Spill Kits?

There are many different benefits and reasons to use our Chemical Spill Kills. Their key purpose is that they will help to contain hazardous spills in an emergency. This is due to absorbent fibre materials that they are made from, which are specifically designed to work with Chemicals, Acids and Alkalis. The idea is to strategically and conveniently place the Chemical Spill Kits around the warehouse or building, which will allow the users to easily access them and respond quickly. A good way to think about the kits, is their similarity to fire extinguishers in the sense that they are placed around the premises, to be used if and when you need them.

Which Chemical Spill Kit Do I Need?

Our chemical spill kits come in a range of different volumes, which are based sizes. If you are considering what size spill kit you need, it is important to firstly consider the size of your total fluids storage. Based on this, we recommend that you should have provisions to able to absorb at least 25% of the total fluids in storage. Our Chemical Spill Kits are measured based on volume of liquid/oil that can be absorbed. Our kits range from 90 litres up to 240 litres. We also stock pads and socks individually for minor spillages, if you also require these.  As well as the initial Chemical Spill Kit, we also offer a refill kit for each size, to help you keep stocked up.
