Maintaining secondary containment for hazardous liquids is essential for preventing environmental contamination and ensuring facility safety. Professional drum sumps and spill trays are engineered to capture leaks and overflows from industrial containers and technical laboratory vessels. These vital occupational safety solutions are foundational for the use of safety containers and the compliant storage of aggressive chemicals.
Why Choose Professional Spill Containment?
Our curated collection of drum sumps and trays is designed for high-capacity containment and technical durability:
- Industrial KTC Stations: We stock Asecos KTC Stations and collecting trays (up to 1350 x 1650 mm), featuring options like painted grids or zinc-plated finishes for heavy-duty chemical storage.
- Versatile b.safe Trays: Utilize Bohlender b.safe Collecting Trays, available in various capacities including 10L, 12L, 20L, and 25L, to provide localized containment for smaller laboratory containers.
- Standardized Footprints: Select trays designed for specific facility needs, from compact 10L units for benchtop use to large stations for industrial drum management.
- Durable Material Construction: Our sumps are manufactured from chemically resistant materials to ensure long-term integrity when exposed to corrosive or flammable substances.
LabFriend supplies drum sumps from industry-leading specialists in spill control and hazardous material storage:
- Asecos: A global leader in the development and manufacture of safety products for hazardous material storage, providing robust KTC containment stations.
- Bohlender: Specialist in high-performance labware, offering the b.safe series of collecting trays for precise and reliable spill management.
Effective spill containment is a cornerstone of laboratory risk management; to further enhance your facility's safety infrastructure, we recommend exploring these related categories:
- Safety Signs: Ensure your containment areas are clearly marked with LLG GHS-05 Corrosive or GHS-02 Flame warning labels.
- Safety Cabinets: Store smaller spill trays within Asecos or EcoSafe cabinets to maintain a fully integrated hazardous material workflow.
- Aprons: Use LLG Guttasyn or Ansell PVC aprons when transferring liquids over Bohlender collecting trays to ensure personal protection.
- Radiation Shielding: Place Honeywell Clearways visors and shielding nearby when managing hazardous waste containers in radioactive environments.
Unsure if your facility requires a zinc-plated Asecos KTC tray or a compact Bohlender b.safe 12L unit? Our team provides local technical support to help you find the correct containment solution with fast shipping and competitive pricing.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the benefit of a zinc-plated Asecos tray?
Zinc-plating provides enhanced corrosion resistance and durability for Asecos KTC trays, making them particularly suitable for harsh industrial environments where aggressive chemical exposure is likely.
2. Are Bohlender b.safe trays suitable for large drums?
The b.safe trays we stock range from 10L to 25L, making them ideal for benchtop containers or smaller canisters. For large industrial drums, we recommend the higher-capacity Asecos KTC stations.
3. Do I need a grid for my collecting tray?
Trays like the Asecos KTC Station with a painted grid allow containers to sit above any potential spills, keeping the exterior of the drum clean and facilitating easier spill identification.
4. How do I choose the right capacity for spill containment?
Standard safety protocols often require secondary containment to hold at least 110% of the largest container's volume or 25% of the total volume stored; ensure your Bohlender or Asecos selection meets these local requirements.
