containment berms / barriers
One of the key elements of storage area containment is the use of containment berms or barriers. These are physical structures designed to prevent the escape or spread of hazardous substances in the event of a leak or spill. Containment berms can be made from a range of materials, such as concrete, steel, or specialized polymers.
Concrete containment berms are a popular choice due to their durability and resistance to a wide range of chemicals. They are typically installed around storage tanks or other equipment to capture any leaks or spills. Steel berms, on the other hand, are more portable and can be easily relocated as needed. They provide a flexible and robust solution for containment requirements.
