Lightweight and economical L-bracket berm design provides secure spill containment
Just like the standard Economy Model Ultra-Containment Berm, this PE model uses a reinforced polyethylene (RPE) 30-mil liner for maximum durability. The L-shaped aluminum brackets provide sturdy sidewalls, yet its frameless design makes it quick to deploy inside or outside.
Available in many sizes, including custom sizes, the Ultra-Containment Berm – PE Model is ideal for either temporary or long-term storage and spill containment for anything from a single IBC to a large frac tank.
Product Highlights
- L-shaped aluminum brackets provide sturdy sidewall support.
- 12” sidewall contains spills in drilling and fracking locations.
- Two-color (black/yellow) material makes tears and punctures easier to identify - simply look for the opposite color.
- No frames, components or excess material outside of sidewalls — excellent for use as spill containment area inside of storage sheds and other buildings or structures where floor space is a premium.
- Economical spill containment for frac tanks and other large containers.
- Custom sizes available.

-
What is included in the repair kit and how does it work?
The repair kit is simply an 11” x 36” piece of matching material and instructions on how to apply it to the berm. The only other item required is an industrial heat gun.
-
What is the optional ground tarp for?
The ground tarp provides added protection from punctures or damage from beneath the Ultra-Containment Berm. Standard procedure is to sweep the area of any rocks or debris, then place the ground tarp down followed by the containment berm.
-
How do I know what size ground tarp to order?
For smaller standard sized berms, the 11′ x 11′ ground tarp is recommended (Part# 8311). For larger berms, the general rule of thumb is to add 4′ to both the length and width dimensions of the berm. (e.g. a 16′ x 64′ ground tarp would be used for a 12′ x 60′ containment berm.)
-
What are the track belts for?
Track belts are strips of very heavy-duty material (Reinforced PVC) that lay down inside of the berm. They take the wear and tear from tires of the vehicles that are driving in and out of the berms. Thereby extending the life of the product.
