Drum Spill Pallets

Product code F21-SP-101 / -102 / -201 / -202 / -203 / -401 / -403

Where a deck catches drips, a pallet holds a burst drum. Sumps run to 488 litres, the four-drum version racks at 500 kg, and the modular two-drum clips into a platform as the store grows.

Quoted on enquiry

These depend on your order, your market or the certificate that covers your run, so we quote them rather than publish one figure that would be wrong for most buyers. Ask and you get the number for your specification.

  • Chemical resistance statement for your liquid
  • Minimum order quantity

Before you order: Polyethylene resists most acids, alkalis and water-based chemicals but not every solvent. A sump meets its contents neat, undiluted and often with rainwater in it, which is harsher than the storage condition the container was rated for. Send us the liquid and the concentration before you order.

The Range

Dimensions are length × width × height and weights are empty, both nominal. Load figures are the manufacturer’s published values; ask us for the test basis before you specify against them. The figure to check your containment rule against is the sump capacity, not the footprint.

Why It Is Built This Way

What makes this product different

01

Sized to hold a whole drum

The full-drum pallet takes 202 litres, more than a 200 litre drum contains. Where your rule is 110 per cent of the largest container, that single number is the whole compliance conversation.

02

Rackable is a different product

Only the rackable four-drum version is rated to go in pallet racking, at 500 kg. Putting a standard pallet in a rack because it fits the beam spacing is the most common misuse of this product.

03

Modular grows with the store

The clip-connect version joins with T and cross connectors, so two drums today and eight next year is one continuous bund rather than four separate ones with gaps between them.

04

Steel grate where drums get dragged

A hot-dip galvanised grate takes the punishment of drums being rolled and levered across it. It costs weight, 36 kg against 21, and it is the version that survives a busy yard.

Compliance by market

What this product has to satisfy, market by market

The regimes that apply to this type of container in each market we ship to, with the detail behind each one a click away. This is what the market asks for; what this particular design already holds is in the specification above.

Orientation for specification, not legal advice, and not a statement that this design holds a given approval. Requirements turn on the exact design, contents and destination, and they change. Tell us the market at enquiry and we confirm what applies to your specification, what we hold and what we would need to obtain.

Questions, Answered

The things buyers ask before they order

How do I size the sump?

By the rule your site is assessed against, not by the number of drums. England asks for 110 per cent of the largest container or 25 per cent of total stored volume, whichever is greater. The US SPCC rule asks for containment sized to the largest container. A store of many small containers is usually governed by the total figure.

Which model holds a whole 200 litre drum?

The full-drum sump pallet, F21-SP-101, at 202 litres. That is the model to quote where your rule is 110 per cent of the largest container and the largest container is a standard drum.

Can I put these in pallet racking?

Only the rackable four-drum version, F21-SP-401, and only to its racking load of 500 kilograms. That is a fraction of its 3,000 kilogram floor rating. A standard pallet that happens to fit the beam spacing is not a rackable pallet.

What does the modular version do?

It clips to its neighbours with T and cross connectors, so a growing store becomes one continuous bund rather than separate pallets with gaps between them. It is the version to specify when you know the store will expand.

Plastic grate or galvanised steel grate?

Steel where drums are rolled and levered across the pallet daily, plastic where they are placed with a truck and left. The steel grate adds around 15 kilograms and it is the version that survives a working yard.

Do I need a drain plug?

Outdoors, yes. A sump left open fills with rain and a sump full of water has no capacity for the spill it exists to catch. A drain plug empties it in minutes; without one you are tipping a full sump. Keep the drain valved and normally shut, and inspect what is in it before releasing anything.

What is the minimum order and the lead time?

Quoted against your order. These are bulky items and freight is a large share of the landed cost, so send us the models, the quantities and the destination port and we will quote the whole number rather than the unit price alone.
