Choosing Dangerous Goods and Spill Response Equipment

Dangerous goods and spill response equipment should be selected for the substances and activities involved. A generic kit is not automatically suitable for every workplace, chemical or vehicle.

Identify what the equipment needs to support

Prepare a list of the substances, container sizes and handling or transport activities involved. Keep current safety data sheets available and use qualified advice to confirm the equipment and procedures your operation needs.

Compare kit contents carefully

Our dangerous goods kits and spill kits have different listed contents and applications. Compare the exact items, quantities and storage format on each product page. Do not assume that the words “dangerous goods” or a capacity figure cover every substance or transport requirement.

Consider storage and documentation

If you also need secondary containment, review the dimensions and listed capacities of drum bunded pallets. Check compatibility with the substances and containers involved. Keep documentation accessible using an appropriate manifest cabinet or SDS holder where suitable for your site.

Prepare a clear supply enquiry

• List the product names and quantities you want to compare.
• Include any required dimensions or accessory compatibility.
• Provide the delivery postcode and whether supplies are for multiple locations.
• Resolve technical suitability and regulatory requirements before placing an order.
