All chemicals, allowed to spill onto the floor or other surfaces can be hazardous to your employees working with them. You may have a lot of chemicals or only one, however, the dangers of contamination or simply it becoming a slip hazard can not be underestimated. The various types and sizes of IBC spill pallets will ensure these occurrences do not become common place.
Most of the chemicals delivered to your plant comes in the standard drums or barrels. These are constructed out of metal or a plastic substance. The vast majority of them are very safe, however, rust, corrosion and mishandling can create a problem such as leakage and bursting. This is not a condition that should be allowed to endanger your employees.
The EPA will require specific clean up procedure when a spill occurs. These regulations require certain chemical processes and the paperwork documenting what happened and what is being done to prevent it in the future. Making sure this does not happen is a prime motivating reason for implementing systems that will prevent these types of spills.
The IBC spill pallets will come in many different sizes and for various packages. The 1, 2, 4 or 8 drum or barrel sizes will enable a chemical handling system easy to implement. They are constructed from sturdy polyethylene and are chemical resistant and non reactive. Some of them will also have covers, either lockable to allow for outdoor storage or controlled access.
By separating the different classes of chemicals for each pallet, they can be moved easily with the forklift pockets and will sit in most racking systems. Making them easy to move, ensures their ability to go from storage to dispensing and back to storage without taking a chance of the spills that would accompany other systems. The safety chain attachment points will also aid in this movement in a safe way.
The newer tanks, holding much more chemical than each of the older drums and barrels, also have containment pallets that can be used. These are set up as one or two tank platforms. They have further protections from things that might injure this containers. The things that might hang off of shelves or sharp objects that just seem to be everywhere can be prevented from harming your cargo while moving them.
Regardless of the size of the pallet or how much is set on them, they are designed to hold it all. Whether that is in the drums, barrels, tanks or in the bottom reservoir should a leak occur. This is the important part. When a leak occurs, it will flow through the grates in the pallet's surface and go into that reservoir where it is safely stored until it is cleaned out. No spill happens and no regulatory mandated cleanup and paperwork need to be done.
The IBC spill pallets are designed for safety and if used properly will maintain the working conditions everyone wants. They are easily moved to a cleaning area and unloaded. The pallets, themselves, can be drained out and cleaned up and put back in service. This type of containment will make everyone breathe a littler easier, especially your hazardous material handling team.
