Most company owners have a variety of spillage kits onsite because they need to be prepared when leakage occurs. You may wish that your employees are careful enough to avoid messes, but they can happen no matter what. Therefore, it’s a good idea to purchase what you need and ensure that all the spill kit accessories are included.
When these kits are used, you should replenish the products to make sure that you’re prepared for the next accident. However, many company owners and inventory management employees aren’t familiar with what products should be in these kits.
Spill kit accessories can come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colours. In most cases, they are brightly coloured so that the eyes are drawn to them in times of crisis. These kits should come with perimeter containment, such as land socks or booms, as well as absorbent mats, pillows, or pads. They will also have an absorbent product, such as granules or particulates. This can be sprinkled over the spillage and allowed to congeal, so it is easier to pick up. Along with such, the kits should have appropriate personal protective equipment and instructions for its use. Many times, they will also have disposable bags, though you should read the description to ensure if yours will come with it or if you need to purchase them separately.
At EcoSpill, they realise that spillage can happen at any time, even if you’re careful. The goal is to contain them and clean them up quickly to reduce the risk of fire, falls, damages and more. They have a variety of kits, including chemicals, fuel/oil, general purpose and specialty versions. They also make sure you are trained on how to use all the spill kit accessories so that you’re prepared.
