We CAN Stop Plastic Pellet Pollution

Zero plastic resin loss is a priority for the plastics industry—and a critical issue for our environment. 

Plastic Pellets Are Terrible for the Environment

Plastic resin pellets lost during the manufacturing of plastic products are polluting waterways. Often referred to as microplastics or “nurdles,” these resin pellets are being ingested by marine life and wildlife, and they cannot pass through the digestive tracts of most animals, which leads to malnutrition and starvation.

UltraTech International is committed to addressing this issue by preventing resin pellets and other microplastics from entering waterways through products engineered to capture and contain these pollutants and other contaminants during day-to-day operations across various industries.

Be a Part of the Solution

With products designed to capture and contain plastic resin pellets and other contaminants during day-to-day operations across many industries, together, we can reduce and even strive to prevent plastic pellet loss. 

Ultra-Pellet Pan®

Capture plastic pellet spills from railroad hoppers

The Ultra-Pellet Pan track pan has been specifically engineered as a permanent solution to capture plastic resin pellets as small as 1mm in diameter, while allowing rainwater to drain out, thereby preventing costly cleanup and regulatory fines.

Ultra-Pellet Pan®
Composite Model

20' composite track pans capture even more plastic pellet spills from railcars

The Ultra-Pellet Pan – Composite Model captures plastic pellet spills from railroad hoppers just like its polyethylene cousin, but is longer and can be connected to one another to form just about any length.

Ultra-Pellet Pond

Weighted Containment Berm Stays in Place in Windy Conditions

Designed to capture and contain plastic resin pellets. Its rugged PVC construction ensures long service life, while the large, 6-inch diameter drain keeps pellets in the pond and allows rainwater to pass through quickly.

Ultra-Storm Guard®

Heavy-duty, adjustable catch basin filter captures plastic pellets and other contaminants

The Ultra-Storm Guard captures microplastics (“nurdles”) and other floatables before they enter our waterways, where marine life and wildlife ingest them, often with fatal consequences.

Ultra-Storm Guard HD®

Heavy-duty, adjustable catch basin filter captures plastic pellets as small as 1.5mm

With its built-in stainless steel screens, the Ultra-Storm Guard HD captures plastic pellets that are smaller than those captured by our original Ultra-Storm Guard (above).

Ultra-Storm Guard HDC®

Heavy-duty, adjustable catch basin filter captures plastic pellets between 1.0mm and 5.0mm

The Ultra-Storm Guard HDC uses a replaceable and removable cartridge system to capture a wider range of microplastics and other contaminants than our other models.

Ultra-Pellet Trap®

Stop plastic pellets and other debris from entering stormwater drains and polluting our waterways

The Ultra-Pellet Trap will prevent plastic pellets and other microplastics from entering our waterways through stormwater drains, while also filtering out other hazardous contaminants, including oil, eroded soil, debris, and fuel from vehicles.

Ultra-Berm Builder®
Plus Model

Drive-over barrier provides heavy-duty custom plastic pellet containment

Create permanent plastic pellet containment on concrete, asphalt, and most sealed surfaces with the Ultra-Berm Builder Plus. Perfect for areas where microplastics may spill during open transfers.

Ultra-Track Berm®

Portable plastic pellet containment

A portable railroad spill containment and spill response solution, the Ultra-Track Berm can capture up to 114 gallons and is ideal for capturing plastic pellets and other microplastics during loading, unloading, and clean-out operations. 

Ultra-Containment Berm®
Ultimate Model

Keep plastic pellets and other microplastics off of the ground and out of our waterways

The Ultra-Containment Berm is designed to capture leaks and spills from large vehicles, ensuring a safe and secure environment. It is equally effective in capturing plastic pellets that spill onto the ground and ultimately end up in our waterways. 

Ultra-Drain Seal®

Completely seal stormwater drains to protect our waterways during emergency spills

The Ultra-Drain Seal can be used in an emergency or temporarily during loading and unloading operations to stop plastic pellets (and anything else) from entering our waterways through storm drains. 

Ultra-Filter Sock®

Filter stormwater around street drains while stopping plastic pellets at the same time

The Ultra-Filter Sock can be placed around stormwater drains, across gullies and ditches, or anywhere debris—including plastic pellet debris—needs to be filtered out of stormwater flow.

Ultra-Utility Tray®

Capture plastic pellets at the point of discharge

The Ultra-Utility Tray can be placed directly under the discharge gate of the rail hopper, the inlet coupler of a vehicle being transloaded, or anywhere else plastic resin pellets may escape. 

Ultra-Pipe Sock®

Stop plastic resin pellets from escaping discharge gates during clean-out operations

The Ultra-Pipe Sock can be clamped onto the discharge gate coupler or hose of a rail hopper during clean-out operations. Water will flow through the patented Ultra-Filter-Tex material while trapping most debris, including most microplastics.

Ultra-Dewatering Bag®

Capture and contain microplastics and other debris during railcar clean-out operations

The Ultra-Dewatering Bag (Oil & Sediment Model) can be clamped onto the discharge gate coupler or hose of a rail hopper during clean-out operations. Water will flow through the bag while trapping any debris, including most microplastics, inside.
