The Chemical Spill Absorbent Disposal Kit is essential safety and environmental protection equipment for site investigation teams working on potentially contaminated land. Ground investigation on brownfield and industrial sites regularly encounters hydrocarbon-contaminated soils and groundwater — having a spill kit immediately available is both a legal requirement and a practical necessity.

Why you need a spill kit on site investigations

Site investigation work on brownfield, industrial, and contaminated sites frequently encounters unexpected contamination. Hydrocarbon-affected soils and groundwater can present both health risks to site operatives and environmental risks to surrounding land and watercourses. HSE regulations require that spill response equipment is available and accessible where contamination is anticipated.

Kit contents

The kit contains absorbent pads and granules capable of absorbing hydrocarbons and general chemical spills, along with disposal bags and ties for safe containment and removal of contaminated materials. Full contents listed in product images.

Typical applications

• Hydrocarbon spill response during brownfield site investigation
• Managing contaminated groundwater during borehole work
• Fuel spill response for site vehicles and plant
• General chemical spill management on construction and investigation sites
