Main Features Secondary Containment Systems

If your company deals with hazardous substances, make sure you take the correct precautions to ensure any spills are contained and managed. Today it is not only our duty to protect the environment, but also a legal requirement. Fines can also be very hefty, easily outweighing any cost to prevent the spill in the first place. Secondary spill containment liners, which are sometimes called berm liners, are used for the containment of liquids and gases thereby preventing contamination or pollution of the environment.

As an example, in November 2014, a waste oil processing company was fined $22,500 and legal costs because they failed to store liquid waste properly. This resulted in pollution to a storm water canal and local creek. (link to fine http://www.epa.nsw.gov.au/epamedia/EPAMedia14111403.htm)
