Our IBC Spill Pallet collection provides the necessary infrastructure to manage large-scale liquid storage safely and legally. Designed specifically for 1,000-litre Intermediate Bulk Containers, these pallets are a critical component of any site's spill prevention strategy. Whether you are handling aggressive chemicals, oils, or food-grade liquids, our range ensures that accidental leaks are contained before they can cause environmental damage or workplace hazards.
Storing large volumes of liquid carries significant legal responsibility. In the UK, the Control of Pollution (Oil Storage) Regulations mandate secondary containment for containers over 200 litres.
The 110% Rule: Our IBC pallets are engineered with generous sump capacities (typically 1,100L or more) to ensure you meet the legal requirement to contain 110% of the largest stored container.
Pollution Prevention: By using compliant spill pallets, you avoid the risk of heavy fines from the Environment Agency and ensure your business meets ISO 14001 environmental standards.
We offer containment solutions in two primary materials to suit different chemical profiles:
Polyethylene (PE) Pallets: These are the industry standard for general chemical and oil storage. They are rust-proof, UV-resistant, and offer excellent compatibility with a wide range of corrosive substances like acids and alkalis.
Galvanised Steel Pallets: For operations involving flammable liquids or solvents, steel is the required choice. They offer superior fire resistance and are built to withstand the physical rigors of heavy industrial environments and high-temperature areas.
The Tank Shop provides various configurations to maximize your operational efficiency:
Single & Double Units: Choose between single-container pallets for localized dispensing or double pallets for bulk storage areas.
Low-Profile Options: Designed for areas with restricted headroom or where manual loading of containers is required, these units maintain full sump capacity while sitting closer to the ground.
Hard-Covered & Weatherproof: For outdoor storage, we provide covered pallets that prevent rainwater from entering the sump. This eliminates the cost and hassle of disposing of "clean" rainwater that has become contaminated by sitting in an open bund.
Beyond compliance, our spill pallets are designed with the end-user in mind. Most models feature removable grates for easy cleaning and sump inspection, as well as 4-way forklift access for simple positioning within your warehouse or yard. By providing a stable, level, and secure platform for your IBCs, these pallets reduce the risk of tipping and create a cleaner, more professional working environment.
