The first spill containment products for drums were very tall in order to meet the required gallon capacity specified by the EPA regulations. Many pallets today are still relatively tall (approx. 12-14″ for 4-drum models and approx. 16-17″ for 2-drum models). In many situations and applications, this height is not an issue. If drums are loaded and rarely used or simply stored on these spill pallets until they are needed, it s really not a big deal. But for those applications where drums are being moved on and off the pallets with any kind of frequency, that height can become very significant, very quickly. The other potential issue is the height at which a taller spill pallet can put the top of a drum. If hazmat is being poured into the drum, or dispensed out of it, that height can put splashed or spilled liquid right at eye level. The Ultra-Spill Decks offer a very low profile (5 3/4″)to make handling much easier. It also lowers drum tops so that they are not dangerously close to eye level.Ultra-Spill Decks are available in 1, 2 and 4-drum modules. Modules are easily connected together with bulkhead fittings to allow a virtually unlimited number of customized configurationsThe bulkhead fittings not only “lock” connected modules together, but allow spilled liquid to flow from one module to the nextAll-polyethylene construction meets a wide range of chemical compatibility needsLow profile designs 5.8″ height offers safe and convenient loading/unloading of drumsApplications include hazardous waste collection, storage of virgin chemicals, drum dispensing and battery storageOptional loading ramps provide added drum handling safety and convenience
