Spill containment & control guide

Pollution incidents caused by
accidental spills occur every
day – sometimes the
pollutants put human health
at risk and often cause
environmental damage. All
businesses are responsible for
complying with
environmental regulations
and preventing pollution of
the air, land or water.

Many industrial and
commercial sites have the
potential to damage the
natural environment and
Arco has launched its own
Expert Guide for
Environmental Management
to help businesses reduce the
risk of causing costly
environmental pollution.

Following the guidelines and
ensuring that fluids are stored
safely and the products and
processes are in place to
manage any potential spills
not only reduces the chance of
causing pollution, but also
makes good business sense.

Minimising waste and
pollution risk saves money,
and businesses that have a
‘green’ image are at a
competitive advantage, which
is important in today’s
economic climate.

The range of products
available from Arco include
absorbents and spill kits from
the Ecospill Elite and Ecospill
Sustainable brands, as well as
an Arco own brand range of
pads, booms, sheets and
hazard waste bags to provide a
cost-effective and immediate
solution to spills.
