Protect Fuel, Oil & Chemical Storage Areas Before Small Leaks Become Major Problems

Most environmental incidents don't begin with a catastrophic spill.

They start with a slow leak from a drum, a damaged IBC, an overflowing waste oil container or a transfer point that wasn't properly protected. Left unmanaged, even minor fluid releases can create workplace hazards, environmental risks, compliance concerns & costly clean-up requirements.

Alemlube Spill Containment & Drum Storage solutions help businesses create safer storage environments for fuels, oils, chemicals & hazardous liquids while supporting environmental protection, workplace safety & operational compliance.

Businesses managing bulk liquid storage often utilise products from our IBC & Drum Kits collection. Sites operating refuelling infrastructure frequently pair containment systems with products from our Fuel Transfer Pumps range, while facilities implementing broader workplace protection programs commonly utilise solutions from our Work Safety Protections collection.

What Are Spill Containment & Drum Storage Solutions?

Safe liquid storage is about far more than keeping containers off the floor.

Alemlube Spill Containment & Drum Storage products are designed to provide secondary containment around drums, IBCs, fuels, oils, lubricants & chemicals, helping businesses minimise environmental exposure while creating safer fluid storage areas.

Operations managing large fuel inventories often support storage oversight with products from our Diesel Tank Level Monitoring & Control Systems collection, where visibility & control remain essential to fuel management.

Common solutions may include:

► Spill containment pallets
► Bunded drum storage systems
► Spill decks
► IBC spill containment platforms
► Secondary containment systems
► Drum decanting stations

► Hazardous liquid storage platforms
► Waste oil containment systems
► Chemical storage solutions
► Environmental protection equipment

These products help prevent leaks from spreading while supporting responsible liquid storage practices.

Expert Tips

Many environmental incidents occur during fluid transfer rather than storage.

Containment should protect both.

► Position containment systems beneath transfer points.
► Inspect bunds regularly for fluid accumulation.
► Store incompatible chemicals separately.
► Review secondary containment capacity requirements.
► Keep spill response kits readily accessible.
► Monitor drum condition during routine inspections.
► Include storage areas within workplace safety audits.
