Spill kit – hydrofluoric acid

This small, 650mL spill kit is ideal for workshops, warehouses, factories, plants, laboratories, sites – wherever hydrofluoric acid is stored, handled and spilled.

 

This kit is designed for spills of 650ml or less. If the spill is larger, do not attempt clean-up and call Fire and Emergency Services immediately on 000.

 

• Ideal for work areas where hydrofluoric acid is stored and used.
• Neutralising powder makes the spill safe to clean up
• Non-toxic, non-flammable absorbent with no pre-mixing required.
• Three disposal bags – two (double-bagged) for contaminated waste and one for contaminated PPE.
• All spill kit components stored in a convenient and transportable 20 litre pail.
• Spill kit includes labels, laminated re-order form and operating instructions.
• This spill kit can be customised by adding/removing/swapping components.

 

PLEASE NOTE:

• Clean up materials from conventional spill kits, such as booms and pads can be dissolved by hydrofluoric acid.
• Kitty litters, vermiculite or sand should not be used – hydrofluoric acid reacts with silica to produce silicon tetrafluoride, a toxic gas.

 

Spill kits are available in an extensive range of sizes and types to ensure a fit for purpose spill kit is on hand to help minimise risk and meet environmental obligations. View our full range of chemical spill kits.
