Pollution Control

Jointing Tech supplies pollution-control and spill-response products for site, maintenance, utility, transformer and industrial applications. The range includes oil-only absorbents, spill kits, absorbent pads and cushions, drain cover mats, bund bags, drum covers, filter socks, temporary bunding and hazardous-waste bags.

Having suitable spill-response products available can help teams respond quickly to leaks, drips and accidental releases. Select equipment based on the materials handled, likely spill volume, location, drainage risks and site emergency procedures.

Pollution-control products can help contain, absorb or manage suitable spills before they reach drains, watercourses, soil or sensitive areas. Different products are designed for different purposes: oil-only absorbents are intended for oils and hydrocarbons, drain covers may help prevent entry into drainage points, and bunding products can provide temporary containment around equipment or containers.

Before choosing a spill kit or absorbent, determine liquids stored or used on site, maximum credible spill volume, storage areas, drainage plans, access, and waste disposal plans. Make sure that the kit chosen has appropriate contents and is located within easy reach.
Conduct spill response activities in accordance with the site emergency procedures. If safe, stop the source, protect drains and watercourses, use the proper personal protective equipment, and contain and absorb the spill; and arrange for proper disposal of contaminated materials. If a spill has the potential to impact the environment or is larger than the site's capacity, follow the escalation and reporting process immediately.

Inspect pollution-control stock regularly. Replace used or expired items and ensure teams know where the equipment is stored and how it should be used.
