If your company focuses on storing or using liquid substances, you’re likely to have to deal with spills and contamination. Even the most careful employees are bound to have accidents which can cause severe injuries, damage the premises, or get out into the environment. Therefore, it makes sense to keep spill kits on hand to clean up the mess quickly, but you might still have some contamination if you don’t use floor bunding.
It’s a semi-permanent fixture that is laid out on the floor to protect a particular area. It can be used between doorways to keep any spilled liquid out of other areas, preventing contamination.
You can also use floor bunding to create a secure area when there isn’t one. Many times, you can find a variety of sizes and corner pieces so that you can create a rectangular or square space. To add more protection, you can also use containment pallets that hold spilled liquid. Whether the bunds are the first line of defence or the last, you’ve got options and can protect the environment and other factory areas. Of course, the bund you choose must be high-quality to ensure that it works correctly.
At EcoSpill, their floor bunding uses heavy-duty urethane that is UV stable. It is designed to handle workshop traffic. You can drive over it with a car or forklift without fear. Along with such, it’s designed not to lift up, which renders the bund moot, or crack or split over time. You can find both flexible and rigid options, allowing you to customise the bund based on your particular needs. You can also find aluminium bunds that are more rigid. Whether you want to buy the pieces separately or want to buy a full installation kit, you can find exactly what you need.
