Why You Should Use Spill Pallets In Your Business
The keyword here is largely around creating a safe environment where hazardous chemicals are being stored. Naturally, when you see a drum full of liquid with a large warning sign on it, you steer clear, and your brain automatically sends the signal to the rest of your body to take caution. Unfortunately, when leaks and accidents happen, we don’t have that initial warning, and we may sustain severe injury from exposure. To keep your work environment safe, we suggest the use of spill pallets, and here is why:
1. Safer cleanup – in the event of a leak, the bund will safely contain the chemicals, so you are not at risk of exposure. Many chemicals may cause burns and are extremely dangerous when inhaled, so be sure to dress in the appropriate safety gear when cleaning the spill.
2. Prevent contamination – using the right-sized bund for your pallets is important to ensure no overflow that could contaminate your work environment. Also, an overflow with incompatible chemicals, such as those on the floor, may cause reactions such as explosions or harmful gas emissions, so ensure you are operating within the guidelines to avoid contamination.
3. Prevent corrosion – chemicals with corrosive compounds can easily destroy your work environment from metal framing, flooring and any organic compound it comes into contact with. Ensure you use the appropriate spill pallet for corrosive chemicals to prevent damage to your business.

How To Safely Clean A Spill Pallet
Ensuring you contain the spill is step one in creating a safe work environment, but how do you clean up safely? Spill kits are an essential item to have in your business where chemicals are being stored and should be kept in an easily accessible area. Once the spill has been removed, the bund must be cleaned again to remove any remaining residue, which you can do using water and a detergent. Contaminated water from the spill kit cannot be disposed of in a drain without being appropriately treated, so ensure you follow the necessary guidelines with disposing of spill kit water. Lastly, you can periodically steam your spill pallets to strip off any ingrained chemicals and oils from the material.
