Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I inspect and empty plastic spill containment trays?

We recommend inspecting your chemical spill trays weekly as part of your routine workplace safety inspections. These regular inspections allow you to spot potential issues before they become problems and ensure your trays maintain their containment capacity.

Empty trays immediately when you notice any collected liquid, regardless of your inspection schedule. Even small amounts of accumulated chemicals can reduce the tray"s effectiveness and create unnecessary workplace risks. When checking your trays, look for cracks, warping, and signs of chemical damage that could compromise their integrity.

How should collected liquids in a spill tray be disposed of?

Proper disposal depends on the type of liquid collected. Never pour collected chemicals down drains or dispose of them with regular waste—this violates environmental regulations and creates serious safety risks. The first step is identifying the substance using the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for proper handling and disposal guidance.

Spill trays for chemicals require specialist hazardous waste disposal services. Contact a licensed waste disposal company for chemical collection and disposal and keep records to demonstrate compliance with NZ"s environmental regulations.

What are the risks of not using chemical spill containment trays?

Even the smallest chemical spills can present workplace hazards and compliance issues without proper containment. Uncontained liquids can spread across floors, creating slip hazards and potentially contaminating larger areas, requiring costly professional cleanup.

Without plastic spill containment trays and spill kits, chemical spills can also damage flooring, equipment, and surrounding materials, leading to repairs or replacement. More serious spills can reach drains or waterways, resulting in environmental violations. WorkSafe NZ requires employers to manage workplace risks, including properly storing hazardous substances.

Failing to implement these measures demonstrates inadequate risk management and can result in liability issues should any incidents occur.
