Silt Fence 100m Roll

A Silt Fence acts to prevent contamination of exposed soils and construction site borders. It features high tensile strength to allow water damming to the full height of the silt fence, trapping sediment but filter through water transmission. Made from heavy duty polypropylene tape yarns, it is built tough in order to retain its structural integrity until typical construction stresses.

The permeable barrier also helps to reduce water turbidity. Ideal for use in all construction sites to control run-off and lower the risk of pollution and erosion to neighbouring areas. To deploy, simply use wooden stakes to fix into place.

How Grippy Land Socks Safeguard Drains

  • Posted by: Ecospill Spill Kits
land socks

Drainage systems whether in residential or commercial areas sooner or later will always end up clogged, broken and/or slow in draining. This is because no matter how careful we are in draining our household and industrial washing, small amounts of residue such as hair, oil or even worse — hazardous chemicals will still make its way to your pipes — the culprit? The holes you see in your drains.

While these holes fulfil the very role of a drain and allow water to pass through, because of its width, hazardous spills and chemicals are able to pass through as well, creating problems for you in the future.

This is why it has now become a common norm for specialty products to be sold made specifically to filter out the liquids we drain, preventing any hazardous chemicals. However, no one could have guessed that one of the best filters is  makeshift one — grippy land socks! Read more

Chemical Land Socks 1.5m Length

Chemical Land Socks 1.5m Length

Chemical Land Socks 1.5m play an important role in spill containment. Before any clean up measures can commence: a spill must first be contained. Land Socks are used to surround the perimetre of a spill, or to block and protect a near by drain. Ecospill Chemical Land Socks 3m Length are thick and super absorbent. Land Socks can also be called containment socks, or containment booms.

  • Ideal for most Chemical spills including including
    alkalis, acids, caustics and corrosives
  • Used around the perimeter of the spill to contain it
  • Filled with premium polypropylene material
  • Size: 90mm in diameter x 1.5m Length

How to use Chemical Land Socks 1.5m as Spill Containment

The first step in cleaning up a chemical or dangerous goods spill is to stop the source of the spill (literally pick up the object that is spilling), and the next step is to contain it. In other words, stop the spill spreading. The most effective way to contain a chemical spill is to deploy Land Socks around the perimeter of the spill. Place either the 1.5m or the 3m Land Sock around the edge of the spilled liquid. Use multiple land socks if needed, overlapping them by approximately 30cm on each end, until the spill is completely surrounded. This will ensure that the edge of the spill is absorbed into the land sock and as long as the source of the spill has been stopped, no further liquid will breach the land sock perimeter. Now you can switch to clean up measures.

How to use Chemical Land Socks for Drain Protection

Any liquid spilled will continue to flow in the direction of gravity. Good site construction means that industrial sites are designed in order to flow all excess water towards stormwater drains, to prevent flooding. This is fantastic when you have a rain event, but it also means that any spilled liquids are also going to flow in the direction of stormwater drains. If you have a chemical spill in the vincinity of a stormwater drain it is vital to deploy a land sock in front of the stormwater drain. The easiest way to do this is to lay a Chemical Land Sock 1.5m or a 3m in front of the stormwater drain if it’s a kerb and channel style, or surrounding it in order to block any flowing liquids from entering it.

Important – In the event of a major spill incident it might also be advisable to consider using a drain seal as well as Land Socks for further drain protection. The drain seal literally seals off an open drain entrance completely, providing a tacky seal so that no liquids can enter the drain. Click for more information on Drain Seals.

How to clean up a fuel, oil or non-aggressive chemical spill?
These are the SEVEN steps to follow to effectively clean up a spill incident:

  1. PPE. Personal safety is paramount – so identify the liquid spilled and put on the PPE required.
  2. ASSESS. Quickly assess the extent of the spill and decide whether you can handle it yourself or if you need assistance.
  3. CONTAIN. Your goal is to contain the perimeter of the spill as quickly as possible using the Land Socks/Booms. Stop the source of the spill if possible. Once the spill is contained you have time to clean it up unpressured.
  4. ABSORB. The goal is to turn the spilled liquid into an absorbed solid. Use the Absorbent Mats/Pads or Absorbent Powder to absorb the liquid spilled. Use EcoSweep on oils, fuels and hydrocarbon-based liquids; and ChemSorb on chemical liquids.
  5. DISPOSE. Shovel or place the absorbed materials into the Anti-static Waste Disposal Bags and secure with the Ties. Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
  6. REPORT. Report the spill incident onto your company’s incident report form, and hand to your supervisor.
  7. RE-STOCK. Inspect and re-stock the Spill Kit as soon as possible to allow maximum spill response capacity for next time.
